Well if you're referring to my comments, I'm not saying that. However I would say that using the peace sign makes him look to many people kooky, certainly in the sense that it makes him look like he wants to return to hippie days, given the prominent associations of that symbol, and that he therefore may be rather out of touch with the situation of 2007 and beyond. That, not wanting peace, makes him seem that way (I think), to many people.
