58. Diving in now
I've nevcer been happy with the "left/right" political spectrum, tho I am not a "moderate." Moderates are too afraid to offend anybody so they try to split the difference, at least in my way of thinking.

To be brutally honest I lurk at both Free republic and DU, just like I switch from Rush/Hannity to Franken/Schultz/Randi Rhodes.

Pretty much everybody pisses me off because both side play on emotions in a big game of gotcha.

I try to be polite and discuss issues calmly. We can disagrfee without being disagreeable.

As my father said: "Even if you are going to kill somebody it doesn't hurt you to be polite to them."

Thanks for the welcome.
