Friends, I post lots of articles, and they are posted only as an FYI
I support a candidate, but try to post articles from a neutral standpoint -- almost always without comment. I post both positive and negative articles about all candidates, to inform, and to give an idea of what's being said in the press because I think it's valuable to both supporters and detractors of a candidate. If I'm posting with an agenda, it will almost always be a post about Bush and the GOP. Just wanted to make that point, as I think it's assumed in GDP that everything posted here is posted as a shot in the continuing warfare among the candidates.

Carry on, and, to quote Obama's Kenyan Granny: "May the best man or woman win."

1. I, for one, appreciate ALL of your posts...
and I don't even know who you support - that tells me you post neutrally.


:hi:

3. I'll vouch for this.

--learned early on to rely on DeepModem Mom for a range of timely posts.
--it hasn't changed during "the Troubles," as my Irish grandparents would say.

4. DM MOM, ... always read your posts no matter what the subject matter...
because you do try to be neutral. Sort of a breath of fresh air around here so to speak. Thanks for your efforts.

5. Are you being picked on, Mom?
In case you missed it there was a whole thank you thread devoted to you yesterday.

We appreciate your fairness and that you keep us informed on all candidates :hi:

6. I did notice that last night, and posted my appreciation. Actually, my posts are...
generally met with comments directed at the writer instead of the poster (myself), but this morning there were a couple of responses (not unkind) which I thought may have indicated a belief that I was making a statement with an informational article -- and I just thought I'd post my goal in posting here.

Thanks for your kind words, and those of others in the thread!

:)
