Mr. Pipes, I don't believe that you were "Borked", which is a partisan attack agaionst a person because of "litmus test" criteria. As it turns out a number of Democrats (of which I am one) supported you. However, I am glad you made it through the process.

I believe that "peaceniks" do not have to be lock-step liberals, nor should they turn a blind eye to evils perpetrated by others in the world (and only be able to see the wrongs they think have come from their own house).

Good luck and please keep the focus on the perpetrators of evil. We all don't have to act like Chamberlain to see the world become a better place.

T&C
