My apologies, but I guess by now, I've seen and heard and watched and read so much that points glaringly toward the general "you Dems (or liberals) fucking SUCK!" that I'm always expecting to behavior displays of snark, smugness, bullying, closed-mindedness, condemnation, a sense of entitlement, and a major holier-than-thou complex. They've built themselves a very toxic reputation in my view. So when one hears someone from the GOP acting like a reasoned, civil grown-up, it's welcome news. Surprising news. And good to hear. I'd almost given up hoping that there'd still be humane, courteous, and far less negative or angry or demeaning individuals in that tribe. If they exist, they're awfully few and far between.

Oh, I can't wait to see it later.. thanks Ninga Cha Jan 2014 #1
