Charles, I never considered you a wingnut. I think one can be a responsible conservative without having to wear that label. And that is where I used to see you. However, if you considered yourself a wingnut, I think you might be lumping everyone to the right of center into that category, which is not only unfair, but incorrect. There are a number of mildly conservative Lizards on this board who I would never call wingnuts. I put myself in that category. But if you see someone like me as a wingnut because I don’t vote straight “D” in every election, that is a major disappointment to me.
