Re: [TMIC] Also....

Nobody said it wasn't ok to voice opinions -- that's what we're all doing. :-)   I'm fine with attacking the issue. But I don't think we need to attack the person, whether it's the president or another TMer. We don't need to resort to name-calling and condescension with those with whom we disagree.   I think talking about controversial issues is helpful in understanding each other's side and way of thinking, but it can be civil.   Barbara H.   In a message dated 7/21/2006 9:30:32 AM Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Since when is it not ok to voice our opinions on this list anyway?  This is a very touchy subject and emotions run high (hence the name calling) If I am upset and want to "vent" even if I get a little sideways....Is that now not ok? Can we not attack an issue with conviction and not be looked down upon by certain people in our "support group" Alan
