In reply to the discussion: America Is Becoming a Bit More Liberal. That's Pretty Unusual Six Years Into a Democratic Presidency [View all]I have an opinion. So do you. So do others.
There is no sting in that. What's funny is people who attack others for having an opinion they don't like.
This is why I generally don't post about anything but the marijuana legalization movement here.
This sort of b.s. from either side - because I have opinions the other side disagrees with as well - anyway, this sort of b.s. is why I don't bother to read most comments related to anything about Obama here.
This is why I have so many people on ignore on both side of this issue and others - because people simply don't have the capacity to be civil.
Not worth my time once I see this.
