To Bill D.; Drop the "Oh, never mind". Your points are well taken.
While we may not always vote for the same people, although I think there are times we may, I get the feeling that we (you and I) have the ability to respect each others opinions. And that is just what they are, opinions. I sometimes wonder who is on the correct path.

Things I don't understand at all are statements like;

"At least he has more brains than Clarence Thomas".

Now, how can anyone say that and have the evidence to back it up.
