14. On principle, I will never change my principles because of anyone else,

I will think about where I stand on an issue, decide what is right and what is wrong, research it if necessary, although some things are pretty obvious, and then even George Bush or Dick Cheney or Rand Paul, will never succeed in forcing me to take a wrong position on something I know is wrong.

How sad that you would let Rand Paul force you to not take a principled stand on something so very important.

I am glad to have the confidence to take a stand for what is right regardless of the opinions of anyone else.

No wonder the PTBs have so much control over us. They know how weak we are.

I have a feeling they will read posts like this and use this tactic again and again to make sure they win every time.

Such a sad OP, especially coming from a democrat. I used to think we Democrats were the hope of this country, and then I see something like this.

Btw, I'm sure you meant to write 'principle'. Standing on the PrinciPAL to refuse to give kudos to anyone would probably get you in trouble
