Ref. these statements about our friend, Doug R, as long as they are put forth as OPINIONS, that's fine. He knows he is in a nest of left wing liberals and should expect such opinions. However, if they are stated as FACT, that's a different story.
I thought he was just trying to inject some balance here. I disagree with his politics, but I have to say he strikes me as a good man.
That's my opinion, for what it's worth.
