Are Liberals welcome in TV? I am reading all sorts of comments that this might not be the best place for those of us who have a more liberal bend of mind!
You should bring your political commentary to the Political Forum.

By the way, Tea Partiers are your average brother, sister, mother, father uncle aunt etc. who are not happy in the direction this country is heading.

Pat, I am new here & am trying to understand the political/social attitudes of a place before I might move. The best way to do this is talk to those who live there. One might be very uncomfortable in an atmosphere that does not welcome those who are not White, Christian, or Conservative. I am looking for an open & welcoming mindset.
I have picked up on several comments on other threads that are pretty indicative of those attitudes.... I know nothing about a "Political Forum", nor do I wish to become embroiled in an argument of political views.
I simply asked a question, and you certainly answered it.

You did not simply ask a question. You gave a political commentary and then you asked a question.

By the way, you also profiled the Tea Party. There are many religions including atheists in our ranks. We also have many colors if you are uncomfortable with white.

I would take this forum with a grain of salt. With over 80,000 people already living in the Villages, the people who post here represent a small percentage.
When I first started lurking here I thought the villages was a liberal-leaning community.
Regardless of your leanings, I spent a week there last December on a Lifestyle visit and everybody was friendly and nobody talked politics.

I had a wonderful time and I never asked and nobody told me their political views.

ah yes, Woodstock. We were in a local band and three of us headed to see if all those bands were actually playing there. Luckily, we left early enough to cross the border and arrive at woodstock around 8 AM on Friday, parked really close and sat about 30 feet from the stage and then waited until later that day for the music to begin and begin it did!! What a weekend and what a memory. Though it was hard to explain to my parents why our faces were on the front of the LIFE magazine that came out the following week when we originally told them we were at a friends cottage!
