Indeed. And that's why I value it. But decision making by dogma is, unfortunately, more efficent. The guys who stop to think it over will always be second. They may be right, but they'll be second. We live in a world, or at least a country, that gives a lot of credit to the guys who are first.

It was fascinating and enlightening to watch them brand Kerry as a "flip flopper". His weakness was that he would think about important issues. We sure don't want that. And presented with better information he might even (gasp!) change his mind! Certainly didn't have to worry about Bush doing that! He never made any mistakes. Said so himself.
