Asking questions of our leaders, no matter what letter is after their name, is not out of line. Except, it seems, to you. Hopefully you are as willing to listen to questions raised as well as opinions on this site? After raising my question I had a very intelligent, civil, and reasonable answer to it. Seems the site did it's job, if you ask me. Had I taken your original advice, I never would have asked it. Give me an open exchange of ideas, questions, and challenges any day. You may find some of it disconcerting to your political belief system, but this nation has survived the process well over 200-plus years, and Jim Robinson's wonderful site here as survived people like me asking questions for almost eight years.
