BTK: I'm sorry but I don't understand. You say "with a message every single day that either paints things blacker (no pun intended)..." I admit I almost closed the thread right there and now wish I had listened to my little inner voice. Sorry, but if you say "no pun intended" you mean you intended something but are being coy. I thought I'd read the entire thread before giving up. It went on: "first because he is a politician"... "second he is a lawyer".... I don't get it. None of those reference personality?

In general: I heard about this site in early October. As a newbie I got so discouraged reading TOTV political posts that I stopped reading them by the end of October. In response to my few posts: I didn't mind having my toes stepped on but didn't care for the heavy stomp of the rhetorical boots. Having recently read the warning about personal attacks, I just stopped by to see if the over-all tone is different. Guess I shouldn't stop in again. Same paint brushes, same artists, same results.

I pray our new president is able to find some light with which to guide us in the next year. I pray Congress, all of Congress, wakes up and does what is best for all of us. I pray we see improvement in the status of our country in the next four years.
