BK, I think you know I only believe half of what I say in here, but it is an integral part of the back and forth that make a certain 5 members of the Political forum continue to have a heart beat. If everyone treated liberals in here like you do, I for one would be a short step from becoming a returning Republican. Unfortunately, no matter what I say or how I say it, I get slammed by the same 5 members. I have made statements that contain multiple paragraphs of fact and projections. These 5 will comb thru it and if they find nothing to be negative about, they do not reply, but they seam elated when they find something that they can insult me about. It is very simple, if they would agree with a few things that I know to be my and Republican values, then we would be working toward a solution to problems. When I get nothing positive in return, I become as childish as they are and reply in turn. I do thank you BK as you have your views and you keep it straight and very civil all the time. For that, I do in fact read and think about everything you post. You have changed my mind on a few issues I have been firmly against in the past. I can listen and learn, but when I get nothing but insults from the negative 5, I freeze my brain into the negative mode with them.

If you and djplong were the only ones that gave me advise in this site, I would be a different person as I do believe we are in trouble in this country. The top 5 are here to prey on every word I type in an effort to sling mud my way. Try to understand how hard it is to be one out of a thousand on this site. Does that mean I should just give up and leave. No. I hope that some of the lurkers will read and understand some of the concerns of the liberal side and maybe, just maybe look for a solution. Please keep up the good work and maybe you can save some of the folks on the fence from falling onto the other side by the Negative 5.
