BB: No, you are not among the annoited Chosen ones. I'm not quite sure who they are myself. But if you expect most of the Mudcatter posters in the BS threads to respect your POV, then you will be sadly disappointed. The only POV respected on the Mudcat is the liberal one. No point in getting upset about it, that's just the way it is here. Funny, but until I started posting on the Mudcat five or six years ago, I REALLY thought that one of the admirable traits about liberals was that they DID respect the views of others.

Just 'taint so.

If someone posts an opinion that does not coincide with the liberal POV here, he/she is subject to ridicule, and sometimes worse.

You just have to accept that, and keep on posting.
