And so it seems that there are groups on both sides are are equally willing to fire the first shot.
If I had a dime for every time I heard the phrase "end times" in the last month, I wouldnt need a job.
You personally have not called me or any other righty a dumbass. That's true. The fact is though that there are so few Reps here because they are run out. They dont have days on end to prepare the replies to a continuous string of accusations, half truths and outright lies. They are gone. I think lookout does a good job at presenting our perspective in a friendly manner and have told him that. But we are outnumbered here. UT does a good job at being fair and has the capacity to make a case well too. Half the time I cant read his posts and the other half I cheer.
The fact is though, that the Cellar is not a cross section of America. Just as in other communities, feel good about the dominance of your philosophy, but realize this isnt reality. It's not balaned.
So anyway, what is the solution to the separation? I dont know. Two countries maybe. That's not going to happen so I dont know.
It is however my opinion that we are all Americans and I can see everyone's contributions and perspectives. That doesnt mean that I or we are going to change our beliefs though. Not any more than the other side.
Where does that leave us? Only time will tell.
