Meta, you are constructed so that you can't have more than a black/white discussion about things IMHO. And you've put me over on the dark side for whatever reason that suits your internal compass. In other words I think you are an ideologue that could compete with the best of the Tea Partiers for intransigence. I don't mean anything pejorative by this. It is just a fact for me. Just like lions eating Zebras--nothing personal. I see myself, rightly or worgly, as being in the middle on a lot these issues. So I m going to take hits from both sides. I get that. But for me the middle is where we as people, or body politic are going to have to meet and come to some kind of accomomdation with each other if we are ever going to get out this economic/class warfare mess. So this means I'm constructed to try and see the "good' that may exist in pub proposals. We have to start somewhere. Because I do that doesn't mean I agree with them---I mostly don't, but when I see something I can support from that side (Jeb's Immigration proposals) I want to cheer them on for this is how we as a people can accomplish something. But it doesn't mean I"m a Republican. It doesn't mean I don't think some of the Democratic proposals won't fly either. I calls em as I sees em. So I'd appreciate if you could possibly keep that in mind about me before making any assumptions about me. Thanks. BUTW PS. If you think I've mischaracterized your approach disabuse me of that notion if you would.
