I really am not mad at the dem's.. more like facing the fact that time has changed things and my tribe must walk into the setting sun, alone.
Yeah, it's more a lonely feel. Had I become radicalize I'd still have the tribe but my reason separated me. No one to blame but myself. I was welcome to adapt the mores of the new left but I choose not to.

You think, then, that Barb was being mean and disrespectful? You just say she was being 'transparent,' but you don't say 'transparently what.' You should not leave that unsaid. Say it and own it.

Barb, was it your intent to be mean and disrespectful?

I am much more concerned with people's reactions and feeling regarding other actual persons on this board, and i am about abstract beliefs about who some 'big person' (the Democratic party being thought of as a 'big person') accepts or rejects.

This talk of tribes walking into the sunset is far removed from any concrete reality. We have an abstract thing (this tribe) doing a metaphor (sunset walk)? It's hard to figure what the 'evidence' might be for the 'big person' acting as alleged.
