@will - Wonderful reply. It is a spot-on answer to what the article requires. It is intelligent and unprejudicial. BRAVO!!

You being the "new kid and all on the block" I'm going to respectfully ask you to go back a couple of pages in this topic, but welcome. BTW, when you use CAPS, it is considered that you are yelling. My ears are ringing.

The VV appears to have been working out and found a new hair stylist. The new look will take some getting use to.

Best comment on this subject so far. Tell BoJester, RetCWO, Retired669, Raylan Wolfe, Don Overton, emarine, Floyd Brown, Kevyn, et al to knock it off, and I'll temper mine. After awhile it gets old getting lambasted continuously when trying to respond to a liberal poster, so consciously, or unconsciously one responds back using the same language. Is that an excuse, no, but when they stop, I'll stop. The thing is, they won't stop because that is the only language they understand, so deal with it, or leave. We live in a very partisan country right now, and I don't see it getting any better.

Well, afternoon. Could I ask you a personal favor and ask you to please "give it up a little early for Lent" but only for a week and see what happens, give it a go? Trust me, there have been times it is a very good thing I couldn't reach through a screen or two. You are absolutely spot on. We do live in a very partisan country, but the change has to start somewhere with someone, don't you think? I'm only asking for a week, as an experiment.

I believe the new look should come under the heading of Multiple Personality Disorder, or perhaps the "Many Faces of Evan" myself. What say you? :roll:

Yeah, but I "are" one -- of sorts, and I'm going to say "pretty please" this time.

It would seem you have been a busy lady. I may have to create a position as Procurement Officer just for you. :-D

You are so right about the name calling, it serves no purpose. Those who are doing it are trying to change someone to think their way, not happening.

I take exception to both the term undocumented immigrant, and illegal alien. The correct appellation should be "As yet unregistered Democratic Voters."

Certainly insulting as individual would not seem the appropriate way to have someone see your point of view.

Your presumption is they have not already voted, in some instances?

@searching - Thanks for the consideration. I use CAPS to bring extra attention to the words, but I will defer to your request. Wouldn't want to alienate any poster - especially first time around. I did read some of your posts and have found them to be wise and respectful. Thanks for the welcome. I appreciate it.
