Pd and Jr,
Y'all are so out of touch! Pd, If you ever got your head off of CNN and listened to or watched something else, you would know about the 'good ole boy factor'. Jr, It is unnecessary and probably impossible to change people like you, Pd, et al. Identification is enouh, snce it always brings out your playbooks.

*sigh* - the over used and silly CNN referrence again.

i am not sure why you feel that you may be more informed than others, but i will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you are. i just have a couple questions:

"why do you feel you need to "change" anyone"?

and as you previously said when referring to PD

"why do you feel you are the one who is trying to make people see the "truth""?

Torone, i understand that you may be passionate in your views, but i think that any well balanced person has to consider that there are in fact other opinions, view points and ideas.

I listen to Rush Limbaugh for as long as i can tolerate it sometimes. Frankly, i dont like to listen to someone who uses the tagline "you dont have to think, because i will think for you" or whatever it was. I listen to Sean Hannity, Micheal Savage, O'Reily and so on.

When you speak, you are parroting Conservative Talk Radio sound bites, nothing more. You repeatedly call the people who have different views that you "communists" and "anti-American" - very common and popular Rush Limbaugh buzz words. You constantly refer to liberal media conspiracies - more Rush Limbaugh and Conservative talk radio. You banter on and on about Liberals, Democrats, Traitors and Communism and have not expressed a single unique opinion that can't be found anywhere in AM radio.

The most awefull part is that your mind is closed. you have made up your mind. you have made your decision. you have come to the conclusion that there is only one right answer and you feel you need to change people to conform with your views. This was also true with people like Marx, Lenin, Engels, Stalin, Chairman Mao, Hitler, Charles Manson, David Koresh, Randy Weaver, or even the Aryan Nation and KKK and so on. Kinda ironic dont you think? Are you different because you know you are right and there were mistaken? i don't understand how someone could think that way.

I learn more and more everyday about others and other pespectives that i had previously not considered and understood. I can say that in most of my time here on Oprano, i have shifted a little to the left and closer to center because i realize fully that not seeing the other side of the issue in a balanced way... means you are trying to solve a math equation with only half the data. ... which of course yields a solution that solves nothing.
