RE :”It can get real nasty around here...I’ve been her for 10 years and have a core group I know and trust....some folks will turn on you here trust me’
They already do that to me now. The Bush-ies already hate me.
You have to have close friends here to survive, but I appreciate your saying it. I know exactly how you feel.
What they have problems with is people who don't care about the truth, who mock good people, and who go on the attack willy nilly, as you (and a handful of others) do. There really aren't that many of you Bush haters and mockers on FR, but you make a lot of noise (especially when you ping others to help you in your mockery and insults).
If you look around you, you'll see good discussions among good people who disagree ALL OVER THE PLACE.
You could be part of that too, if you wanted to. I don't think you do. You love your role as trouble-maker. You've even posted that you liked being hated. It's an odd desire to be hated by good people, but you clearly have it.
