... and you've brought so much to the table for the betterment of all. I just can't believe that they don't show you the respect that you so richly deserve... Hmmm ... ingrates. I too am dismayed.

If you have a "delicate nature", I guess it's just as well for you to avoid conflicting opinions of any sort. I always just bring my opinions to the fore and link articles I find, and hope others might find, interesting and informative. There are those of different convictions that cannot debate the point and instead insult me. I'm not alone in this, by the way. All the "conservative" posters on this forum have experienced it in one form or another. We're not supposed to respond to this, I assume, because then we become "offensive" as opposed to the poster badly responding to us.

The reason I was questioning the decision to close the thread was I didn't get a chance to respond. My response would have been a question. Why was this thread even allowed on the general discussion thread? This goes to prove that any political thread has to go to the political forum. The three pages of replies only shows that even rational people respond poorly and sometimes very rudely when even slightly challenged. When the political forum was made open only to subscribers, I applauded that decision. Please keep the other threads clean of political posting.

Your writings tell how you feel politically without rancor, without venom and your words are clear, precise and perfectly understandable. You are well informed, well researched in what you say and your ability to lay hands on appropriate information immediately astounds me. There are times I don't agree with something but that is only because our values differ slightly...but even then I keep thinking....you MUST be right. If ONLY the rest of us had your beautiful mind, your kind heart and your very clear writing style. YOU are the best writer in the political forum. YOU are the best writer on TOTV. I have missed you BK. Where is that "I have spoken" thingy? |

When a poster has an idea, and another poster disagrees with that idea; it is extremely difficult to disagree with that idea without disagreeing with the originator of the idea, as the originator and his idea are one and the same and he is bound to take it "personal". When someone solves that conundrum please let me in on it.
