11. My problem with bigotry isn't that I do recognize we all have
it no matter where we fall, however, it's what has cost some of the greatest suffering in history up until this date. It's what brought us President Bush and the Iraqi war to oblivion.

If we are going to survive as a species, we have to first identify it in ourselves, and then we have to work on overcoming it.

You, know that there would have been no President Bush if the GOP hadn't pandered to voters prejudices to get him into office. Even though he didn't really win either election, the fact that the votes were so close enabled his cabal to tip the scales in his favor.
