You are mostly right about this. (Even if you are a bit left) JUST teasing.


But SOME of us still have the ability to change our minds about issues as we continue to live and see and hear. Some people only post to **** off others. They aren't interested or concerned. Being concerned often makes others call them fear mongers. Not being concerned makes people call those people folks with heads in the sand.


I just wish that on today's issues that people would find the world news interesting enough to watch all three major news networks equally. You do get the news and you also can quickly ascertain who is telling it to you with the least bias and that differs a lot with each anchor.


I myself become more to center as I age.
