... Here I was reading this post, chuckling a little and marveling at how this guy gets it. A voice of reason in a sea of acrimonious stupidity of late. Finally someone understands that we're Democrats. Big tent and all - taking the side of the less fortunate, reaching out a helping hand to others, standing in solidarity with people who might be different but are generally like-minded, and working toward making things better for everyone in every way we can manage to do so....

...Then the comments started. Holy shit!!!!!!!!

No TB. You are not a terrible writer. Some people, however, are terrible understanders.
