Show me a pair of d's and my mind turns to mush. ;-) As for DlandJB, I really had a hard time deciding where to put her. She does express both conservative and liberal views on various things. I ended up classifying her as a conservative so she could be in the same category as her hubby. ;-) By the way... I don't think either JB or me are confused. That was just a gentle jest to a former LP'er.

Originally Posted By DlandJB I also believe the topics of WE can be discussed in such a manner that personal and/or group attacks are unnecessary.

I've seen this happen a number of times.

I think we have both influenced eachother in some ways, but you'd probably find we are both more in the center than on either extreme.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo I am still around somewhat avromark. I would say I am a moderate with left sided leanings. However there are some matters where I sway to the right.

But I have to admit I don't have as much fun on LP as I used to and I am trying to be a better husband/father/son/employee.

I was to busy talking to my best friends, Mr. Tree and Mrs. Squirrel. <---Dances back off into the woods... I'd put me more in the moderate willing to fight with anyone who says anything extreme, so she stays out of WE for her own sanity catagory.
