THere is a reason why people who insist on arguing politics are often not invited to parties.

We're loud, opinionated, and obnoxious.

I should just stay away. But those who wish to participate are doing no harm, and at least our wives/husbands don't have to listen to us rant so much.

All of the mean nasty things I say on the forum I say to my 3 best friends who happen to be politically inclined in a different direction than I. But we laugh, drink beer, fish, boat, golf, watch hockey. We're still friends.

Sometimes it takes a meaner tone in print.
