Silent no more [View all]

I've avoided confronting many of the outlandish claims and unreasonable bashing that goes on against Mr. Obama.
I don't like confrontations. I also feel like I'm not a good enough writer or thinker to post a good response.
But you know what... if the logical and pragmatic people keep quiet, our thoughts and voices are drowned out.

I urge all of the readers here in the BO group to come out and speak up. I'm not talking cheerleading.

Don't be embarrassed. I don't know why I was for so long. I read DU... there are plenty of none too eloquent people here - lol.

I'm off for most of the rest of the evening, so don't let me down.
