Are you and your friends above criticism?

Absolutely not.

I did not see Dan's post, so I can't address that. My comments were general and also that I have noticed your friendliness with a certain Freeper that is the Queen Mama of ugly and nasty.

As for the college roomies thing, it is just interesting and not exactly unusual for people to speculate. After all, this is the world of politics. No accusations were made that I know of; just musings.

Finally.......KFP you have every right to be mean, funny, sarcastic or whatever. Surely you realize that this topic always ends up in battle lines being drawn and the sides are pretty clearly delineated. Practically anything said has the potential to ignite a flame. If I were you, I wouldn't be very shocked at any reaction. I'm not. If I feared that or was too sensitive about it I would make a quick u-turn if I ran into a Keyes thread.

You should also choose your friends carefully. People do judge us by the company we keep. Two people can be on the same side without being close enough to kiss......if you get my drift.

If you're referring to whom I think you are, it just so happens that we usually come down on the same side of most issues. It's also been my experience that when I have disagreed with her in the past, time has usually proven her to be correct and me to be wrong. She's probably a whole lot smarter than me anyway.

She has never been anything but respectful to me. I've seen her get into it with others here, but her adversaries dish it out as well as she does. That's not my style, but no one is perfect. I've seen many nastier comments than hers from people on all sides around here.

I consider her my FRiend, and I make no apologies for it. You seem pretty close to some here whom I do not particularly care for either. That is your right and your priveledge. I base my relationship with people by how they treat me.

I hope you realize that although we have our differences, I've always treated you with respect. I also respect your right to choose your friends, and I hope you respect my right to choose mine.

There are some on FreeRepublic who are rude and nasty, but Keyes for President is not one of them. I don't know him personally, but he behaves himself quite well on this forum.

If you don’t agree with him on the issues, that’s one thing. But I think you still owe him respect.

Come on! Aren’t we all on the same side? It's the liberals we should be spending our time on.
