3. No, I only get annoyed with poky drivers going

more than 10 MPH below the posted speed limit and that's because I know they cause most of the accidents.

Likewise, I know good people have the right to be wrong about things. If I'm not wrong about 3 things by the time I eat lunch, it means I've slept in. I do have friends in both parties, online and off, and across the political spectrum.

What I won't tolerate is the mentally and emotionally poky who are unwilling to do anything but have their AM radios drone on, filling their empty heads with nonsense and never check anything out.

That makes me less a political dogmatist and more an insufferable snob.
