re: #318 jvic

You’re completely correct. The insanity & dysfunction on my own side distress me more than the i & d on the opposing side. The latter are easier for me to tune out. (NB: Obviously—-or it should be obvious—-, there are sensible people of good will on the other side as well as on my side. They’re not whom I’m talking about.)

I’ve asked myself why to date I haven’t flounced, left, or gotten banned. The above is a key reason.

Also, my attitude is conservative, but my voting record is significantly independent.

Your ability to be honest about that sets you apart. Kudos.
