Anyway, we're often cordial and courteous to you, McG, an' Tarantalus, Fedral--the usual suspects. I would opine that if they knew us, we would be unwelcome among that bunch. Which suits me just fine.
The reason I like this board so much, is that no matter HOW far apart we seem to be in the political sense, we seem to be able to keep a level of decorum and civility.
There have been a few exceptions, but those threads tend to get locked and forgotten fairly quickly.
The office I work in is about 80% Liberal/Democrat and 20% Conservative/Republican. They say that it can be dangerous to discuss politics at works, but I have had arguments with the company's Vice President (Some lasting as long as 2 hours after work) where he has spouted the Dem Party line and I have argued the Rep side. In the end, we smile, say goodnight, and go home.
It's all in good fun and we have a great time doing it.
I still don't understand the Liberal mindset, but at least we each get to 'vent our spleens'
Always remember that:
A Democrat is just a Republican who hasn't been mugged yet.
