Barbara,
I really enjoy communicating with you and I respect your opinion, but I
honestly feel that your response was condescending in itself. I
wasn't being vulgar. I was just plainly venting. Right or
wrong. Even if there was a line, I do not believe I stepped over it.

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.

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"
