Call me Puriple (Page 2): Violet is a lighter shade of purple. That is a good color.

Floyd if you have ever read any of my posts I have stressed looking towards our commonalities many times, as they bring us together, focusing on our differences only seems to draw a negative response and divides us. My color would be red, white and blue= violet.

Speaking bravely from the heart is always a better place to connect with.

Fence straddler...no core values or principles.

Hmmmmmm...a fence straddler, with no core values or principles, just sticks his finger in the air and goes with the political wind. In other words, you stand for nothing.

Hate is a core value. Would you call some one who hates a fence straddle?

So I am a fence straddle because I find merit from those on either side of the fence.

It seems that you only want those that can side with you.

You wish every one to be like you. Or you need to find all of those that will want to live like you.

Fat chance of that happening.

You see a fence, I see it with out a fence.

I see it as a World that includes the likes of both of Us. Not one or the other.

You seek force. I seek understanding.

No offense but you have brain blockage. What we're discussing does not compromise any core values, it actually reaffirms them.

I am red white and blue........NOT WHITE !

And my views are not formed from what you perceive to be a WHITE perspective.

There is no such thing as a white man nor is there any man who is truly black.

And as long as you continue to believe in black and white people, you will remain ignorant and be the the target of antagonistic jerks like me.

This was a country that was formed on being Red, White, & blue.

Just why do you say you are Red, White & Blue. But then save you are not White.

Just who here is getting this wrong. I am White & choose not to use that color to Judge a person by their color.

The red color of our blood is al the same. But Red is a color of race.

So I say it again: What color should we use to describe Us all.

I only picked a color because color for the most part is use to describe us now.

It is the White People that formed this Country in their likeness.

So then I say that it is best to not use the color of ones skin to draw us together.

The day of hanging on to National Labels is out of date.

We are all now a part of One World.

Hanging to tightly to our heritage with only increase the problems of the World.

Only people secure in their personal values will treat the coming issues as problems that can be solved. Not issues that should be avoided.

So far, just more fence straddlers...sigh. So-called "moderates" who stand for nothing, and have no core values or principles. They stick their fingers up and just go with the political wind. One big reason why nothing has changed in Washington D.C. for the past 50 years...they vote.

You see it as straddling a fence, I see it as reasoning and weighing things out before a decision is made.

I just guess that what matters is what kind of fence you try to straddle.

Now I would not try to straddle a barbwire fence. That could lead to an unpleasantness.

Did you try to straddle a barb wire fence at one rime leading you to avoid fence straddling all together?

Never been a fence straddler. A conservative, with core values and principles to the core...I don't waffle.
