(106 posts)Best have thick skin, I'll wager the Big O does. This is how it works. Folks suss it out, warts and all. Are We The People now the only ones left to hold feet to fire?, you bet your asses We are, now that the third rail of the press is splintered, bought, paid for and canned. There are times when the focus should be on the porch itself rotting away at the core...not the nice porch post painted bright blue. I finally opened an account specifically FOR the spirited discussion, from ALL sides of the arguments. You citizens engage, and you rock! Does it get nasty? Boy Howdy! But I'll gawdamn guarantee all of you...this place matters, this site holds more info, solid opinion, and damned fine writing the likes of which you will not see elsewhere. This sight is relevant not only to the members, it sways opinion all over the world. For me, what it all boils down to...We fight for each other. If an opinion is thrown out there, it WILL be scrutinized, for good or ill. If you choose to engage, be prepared for the very best AND worst of it. That IS Democracy, the Big D, the melting pot, NOT a bunch of Bots wired to the collective hive mind, and I have a duty to act accordingly. I'm BornLooser, I'm damned glad to be here, now keep splittin' hair, spewin' the truth, and by all means...rave on!
