2. So who and how are people “silencing you?”
I have quite the thick skin actually. Look onto almost any thread where I’ve posted about Giuliani. I had to get rid of my Rudy ‘08 tag line because of all of the attacks, as well as private messages.
Also, I wish i had mentioned the juvenile polling that goes on at this website. It reminds me of a DNC press release.

We as republican should be a light for good, let it shine on those who want to continue to march this nation into darkness, when we become liken them by copying their demeanor how than do we differed!
Our nature seems to be emulating our opposition which is contrary to that which our Lord has showed and taught us how to treat one another!
We can still disagree without being unkind.
John 13: 34-35

35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
