livefree_ordie -- You can claim to be what you claim to be. Whatever that is you come across as little more than a person who likes to hear themself talk. You have to lean to either Republican or Democrat. To say you don't lean to either because there are ones you wouldn't be keen on in both is a non-starter. You have to lean to one or the other. Your posts clearly indicate you lean conservative. So be honest. Which party do you lean to?
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
