It is my opinion that nothing any one says on this political forum will change any one's mind about anything.
We do it because there is a political thread and, by nature, the political process in our 2 party system is adversarial. No one is forced to go to the political thread. There are pleanty of happier places on the TOTV. I, for one, value much of the wisdom that has been shared on the political thread by both sides. It's just like the television: you can turn on Bill O or Keith Oberman or you can turn on reruns of Father Knows Best.....
