I agree...let's not rush to summary judgment and declare a ZOT alert w/o justification. An open mind is the beginning of wisdom, and conversation illuminates the path...
Welcome the FreeRepublic.com.
I agree with you. Back in the olden days, I trod the dark side, but uncomfortably. Like the poster above, I thought I was a liberal, but really wasn't. Under scrutiny, the things I thought I agreed with just didn't stand up.
Some of the best Freepers I know here (including Jim Robinson!) are former Democrats, former liberals. I welcome anyone into FR who is not here to insult us or yank our chains. That's just bad manners.
Roger, welcome to one of the best places on earth: a gathering of people devoted to freedom.
