There's no need to begin the name calling and insulting. Such is the hallmark of left wingers and liberals. And thus far this topic seems to be leaning to the far left. Nothing I said was intended as an insult to anyone so basic respect is in order.

Yes. I know of what I speak. I was in the military.

I never called you any names so why are you being so sensitive? In fact what you quoted, from me, in your reply was not even taken from any of your posts. That quote was taken from the first post in this thread. If you would care to follow the hot link it would have taken you directly to the post where I took my quote from.

Left winger, liberal - That's the first time I've ever been called that. I'm sure none of my acquaintances would ever say that of me.

You may not have intended to insult anyone but you certainly did and then you started name calling.

It seemed as if you said I was a raging no-mind. Perhaps I took it wrong or misread it. I didn't name call you. I did imply that this topic leans to the left. That is my opinion based on the nature of some of the posts contained put into an ideological context.

If I name call it is clear when I do it. You'd know without a doubt. But such isn't my way so no worries.

"Such is the hallmark of left wingers and liberals." That's what I said. It meant insults and such are how these people debate. I cited an example there and not calling you one. I can see, however, where you would think I did. So I apologize.

That's not important though. My reply was taken out of context just as I misinterpreted yours. This, sadly, happens all the time in such a limited means of communication as we have here with only words on a screen. We lose much through words on a screen.

No problem. I apologize for getting huffy about the whole thing.

It happens, but we can still continue to express our opinions.

I am sure my opinions will be in the minority.

So, all is well then? We shall get along I hope.
