I could not wait to join this message board. Having spent months in a bipartisan message board, breaking down each talking point they threw one by one, over and over, i finally found a place of like minds. As it turns out, i would rather be with the Republicans. I cannot place a finger on it specifically but there is a closed door club here. And this is fine. I just misunderstood. I mistakenly believed it was an inclusive pool of increased thoughts, ideas and opinions.

I live primarily on instinct. It was this instinct that told me everything that was going on in 2000 even though i did not have access to a computer and others to tell me what to think or feel. I had to read between the lines. There was nobody telling me what to look for. It was this instinct that told me that Bush was a dangerous man. This same instinct is telling me that there are a great number here that simply tolerate those outside the loop. They offer the key only to those they choose.

All i have to say for these people, you do not have dominion over the place we find ourselves. We all have equal ownership of the frustration , the anger, the information and the fight.

To those of you who DO respond, and include people simply because they have a shared concern, and not because they have "honored" the correct people, i congratulate you for understanding the true and most important issue. That WE ALL HAVE A VOICE and that we all have a great deal at stake.

To all those in the "clique". You can look down from your lofty places if you choose. But those of us speaking clearly to the masses Rep. and Dem. are fighting just as hard a battle. Anyone can rant to a loyal following. Try swaying someone who fundamentally disagrees with you. Therein lies the real challenge. I will bother you no longer. :thumbsdown:
