...I was PM'd concerning why I was posting so frequently on the POTUS BB of RTF, and why I was so anxious about what was happening politically in America. "It will return, it always does", was this observers comment.
WRONGO! This is far worse, and most just don't get it. This is Humpty Dumpty time. Either we save what we have been given, or we will not be able to put it together again.
I was admonished that the differences between conservative and liberal weren't all that great...we need to get along etc. etc. etc. So I hauled out an oldie-but-goodie (OBG) to remind my friend of the differences.
Do you concur? Or am I off the res here? Interested in any comments.
