1. heehee
You are a shit-starter, ain't ya?! Your posts tickle me! I am finding that it is not so much the "politically correct" crowd, as much as it is the "we are the victims" crowd. I have never seen so much whining for people who have so much power, but whatever floats their boats! You rock on, grrrl!!

4. Thank you!
I have to say, I'm quite flattered that you "get" me and yes, I am a shit starter. How are we going to get shit done if nobody starts it? :evilgrin:

6. Oh I so agree!
It is amazing that I have seen some really progressive thinkers here, then I get slapped back to Earth, by apologists. I know we are a collection of different people and ideas, but when we are the ones always having to compromise, I find I have less and less patience for those apologists here! Keep starting shit!!! There are some of us that enjoy it! :)

8. Facts, schmacts!
Who needs facts when you can have a plate full of hot, steaming rhetoric? (I like mine with a side of righteous indignation)

13. Nope, we have to keep everyone, and bring more in, to win.
Thats that. Coalitions build majorities. Without a majority you are nothing. Better a compromising whoring member of a coalition majority than an ideologically pure sidelined powerless loser.
