Hey folks, when I signed up for this forum I hoped to find a reasoned, open-minded, respectful discussion of the topic by an informed and intelligent readership. Unfortunately, far too much of what I've encountered is little more than emotional, uninformed name calling on both sides of the political spectrum. This approach by both politicians and v**ers serves no purpose other than to further inflame the issues at hand and as long as it persists there is little hope that the political climate in this country will improve. I think we can all do better!!!
