Bob, I'm going to have to disagree with what seems to be your basic premise:
"Why can't we all just get along?"

If we did that we could no longer legitimately call ourselves Conservatives.
Unlike the DUers, we all have strong feelings concerning things we talk about, and I'd much rather see those strong feelings expressed than the canned responses of the liberals who have never thought through an issue or investigated an issue in their lives.

We just have to be smart enough to know that FR has evolved, and we have to put out our flame throwers a lot sooner than we did in the old days.

This forum is comprised of some of the brightest people on this planet, and if their views are not allowed to be expressed passionately, we will all learn very little which we didn't already know.

An alternative route, which I prefer, is for everyone to elect me king, and I will tell you what to think.
