Sometimes, when we have a stance on a topic, we can very easily be taken in by someone who appears to take our same position. I have had this happen in the "real" world; you are welcome to learn from my mistake.

I always question those sources with which I agree the most, more stringently than I do those with which I don't. Nice double-standard, huh?

Please, read and vet carefully. The left is under constant attack and the "right" (aka totalitarians) are so very good at manipulation and exploiting our message and our tolerance.

Again...thank you.
