Sometimes you have to sprinkle a little salt and pepper on your scrambled eggs... [View all]

Otherwise, they are bland and tasteless.

That is the way I look at the debate and discussion on DU. Although I may disagree on a lot of issues, I still believe the discussion is like salt and pepper. By themselves, they may make you wince or sneeze, but mixed in with the eggs, they taste a whole lot better.

We should not take the debate here too seriously, because in the long run, we would be much more bland and tasteless without the salt and pepper to season them...

peace
