Very few people on this forum, or anywhere in America for that matter seem to be open to opposing points of view, even if faced with indisputable facts or evidence.

As evidenced by a comment when a well known politician was asked what she dislikes ....she chuckled trying to make funny by saying ......just about anything the opposition is for or supports! Many true words are said in jest!!
