72. I have no problem

with anything expressed in your statement. This lefty puts a racist 'in their place' every chance I have to. People on here though have been on limpigs case for a long time. The left on here does not miss or ignore racism, homophobia, bigotry of all types. The 50 million that listen to hate radio and television do so because they want to. No amount of education or truth is going to sway 98% of them. They have always been with us and I fear will ALWAYS be with us lacking a positive evolutionary jump where they will be left behind. I hope. Have a happy holiday and new year.
