I live in fear that I'll expose that the bulk of my political knowledge is superficial. Therefore, I will spare myself from too much sparring.

Also, it is okay for us to disagree and debate it here if you're up to it. <strike>I do enjoy the sparing.</strike> As long as we can agree to disagree and don't get into the ad hominem attacks that are little more than side distractions and have nothing to do with the debate. I believe that every debate is an opportunity to learn something—and if both sides do this we all win! —iChef Politikos Gail,

I’m registered Independent but I lean towards Democrats as I’m sure you’ve noticed. I often have to tell myself to just shut up and keep my opinion to myself (even in here with you).
