Seriously...

If we have a little time to actually think about a point made, it's possible that we'll realize that our argument is important only to ourselves and we'll think twice before posting it. Sometimes it's good to let the opinions of others gel a bit, rather than to reply in rapid fire.

Amen, Ellie!!!

I choose my battles very carefully.

Blue, many people here follow the rule Grandma tried to teach us, "If you cannot say something nice, say nothing at all." Still others prefer not to discuss their politics here on a pet board, others decide not to discuss them publicly at all.

Not everyone thinks fighting about politics is fun. And as this is a place mainly for pet discussion, I know some think discussion of politics is out of place.

Do not assume anyone's political leanings because of their lack of posting on the subject. The one thing we have in common here is love for our pets - that's all that matters!

Well said Karen. I prefer not to spend all my pc time in the doghouse, although I do lurk. I come here for 'pet' talk. On most things though, I must say, I agree with you Blue.

I'll agree with that.

I'll agree with that.

Why did you have to revive this thread? Please, tell me. Do you just *want* to restart the flaming that was going on here?

I didn't mean to 'revive' anything.
I was gone for over a week and was reading all the threads I missed.
Sorry to have replied to anything today that I may have missed ...
I didn't know I had to justify every single comment.

No worries, it was a good post.

For crying out loud, why can't Carmen reply? This is not an old thread that needed 'reviving,' the last post was 5 days ago. Actually, I thought that this was a good thread, and the post that she quoted was an especially good one. I have no idea why you would post such a thing
