I have a family, am starting a new career while wrapping up my first one (at 44 years of federal service) and have personal limits on my online time. I also do try not to get caught up in the insults both sides sling that get personal. You assess this as 'popping in once and a while to offer blind opinion' and as such, I don't communicate. I have found a number of your statements as attacking, condescending, narrow, insulting, intentionally ignorant of fact, and totally void of any true attempt to find common ground. I have never said any of this to you; outside of political debate you've never spoken to me- WE don't communicate, neither of us is privy to any discussion with anyone else, you saying that I don't is asinine.
You sir, in this one diatribe refer to me as a leftist Democrat, "slid into the slime of scum" and that I fall short of good character....the thanks for my service. But do know one additional thing: I am an American, I don't assess my existence or citizenship on your opinion, and you are NOT going to take it from me, we is free now Massa.
