I did not notice a change in anyone's viewpoint, including mine, after they read an opposing viewpoint.

And most importantly, it seems that if we cannot even change an opposing viewpoint in this forum, we will never change the voting in the Oval Office, House or Senate.

Unless someone here can propose a viable means to to convey our support, dismay or outrage to our leaders, and have them listen, what is said here is so much hot air. The only constructive thing that has been said on the forum is to exercise or right to vote in the next election. The chances of that "changing" anything are slim to none, based on past outcries to "vote all the bums out".

Now I'll go back to the pleasant things in life, like enjoying my grand children or working on my hobbies and leave those that feel the need to exchange hot air to do their thing on this forum.

Just for the record...this poster....has a parttime job...golfs his share...is active in a number of clubs...just finished a short tour of spring training sites ...has a wife who enjoys traveling and shopping and is very social thus I enjoy life...do not make any asssumptions because I like politics and pollitical discussion that I am some kind of shut in who simply types on here.

I will say again..I have an open mind and have learned quite a bit on here that I did not know....as example...enjoying all the posts on health care from folks who are real and know what is really happening. THAT to me is important.
