89. I think in terms of party politics since * was elected
As should you.

This statement, - You suggest that 'many' don't speak out because they're afraid to be called 'unpatriotic'. That's silly...and allows fear to control your life. It's like giving up your lunch money to the schoolyard bully instead of standing up for yourself.
whether you know it or not is extremely insensitive.

There are many people in this world who DID give up their lunch money to the local bully. Strength is not something everyone is blessed with. Those that are not as strong as some of us, need us to stand up and show some compassion for them. Not degrade them for their lack of strength as you did in that statement.

It's called being "all inclusive". We include EVERYONE who has a desire to be included. That is why I am a Democrat. I don't like leaving people out. I like being surrounded by like minded people, and if some of them have ideas that they are afraid to publicly express, I am more than happy to act as their mouthpiece.

Don't you get it Q? This administration is the worst thing I've seen happen to my country in my 47 years of life. My main focus is to get rid of this cabal by whatever means necessary under the law. If that means I look a blind partisan for the time being, then so be it.

I prefer to be the squeaky wheel, you prefer to write useless articles criticizing our reps, that, by the way, the Democrats in their states, elected.

I'm finished with this debate.
Thanks
