I'm blunt.If you don't like it,ignore my posts.
And don't assume that because you think something should be the way you say it is,it is....it isn't. ;^)
"Relatively new here" is not a reason for having someone who has been here for years be rude to a fellow member.
Understand this: on any day, a number of people join Free Republic. Some of these new members can be experts in their particular field of expertise. A person here at Free Republic can be far more educated or experienced in a particular field than a member since 1998--that's common sense.
Top notch lawyers could join Free Republic any day. Expert programmers could join Free Republic any day. My expertise? Economics and financial markets by college degrees and 25 years experience. I am no expert in law by any means as my expertise is in a different field. But, I believe I made valid points.
You and I are in the same boat. We have common goals. Just because you do not know me persoanlly should not be reason to bark at me. If you disagree, I am sure you normally disagree with intelligent comments. Why not try that next time when you respond to my posts? Let's be friends, OK? We are in this fight together.
