81. you may not realize it but you ARE
undermining Obama when you post as you did above, and encourage others to as well.-

As for your efforts "on the ground"- I'm glad to hear you walk the walk- I do too, but that doesn't give me the right to work against our candidate, or use Obama as my whipping boy for all the frustrations I have with the way our political system.

I'm sorry that I sound condescending to you. I didn't intend to, and don't believe there is anything to be gained by trying to destroy each other with words- The post of yours that elicited my reply sounded pretty condescending, rude and unnecessary to me, like something my 24yr old or his friends might have said in an attempt to silence a voice they didn't like hearing.- Maybe we'd both do well to think about the way we choose to speak to each other.

I'm sorry that I offended you.

I wish we could focus our energy towards making sure that we don't let McCain be selected as the next resident in the whitehouse.

That is something you and I can actually agree needs to happen, and work together to achieve.

I'm not against people voicing their thoughts- But I am against people using legitimate policy issues as cover for continuing to trash a candidate that they have a personal vendetta against. There has been A LOT of that on here of late.

peace~
