And this is what I woke up to this morning...

Are you saying you’re not the descendant of slaves, Mr. Errr, Fred?

Seems like you were claiming an ethnicity a week or so ago that was in construction millennia before the Kushner.

Say what?????? I'm liberal and socialist because by definition that's what a whore means??? Now you are really insulting me. What happened to being open minded????

You're totally confused about everything

[Yssup Rider]

How do you define “hussy?”

I believe the Native Americans have been repaid in full with their mass reservations and ample aid through the years.

(Admittedly, a large portion of that aid is stealth aid to the liquor industry, but what are you gonna do?)

I think if I had said "large land reservations" that would have been a better illustration of my point. I beg everyone's indulgence, but editing posts seems almost impossible these days.

It seems to be working okay today, but sometimes one needs to double-click on the edit button to put it into edit mode.

LOL!

My belief is that liberalism is turning into Socialism. Just check out the latest liberal socialist darlings. It's scary.


Happy Holiday

Hi Ellen,

Thanks for answering my question and creating a dialogue, which I think is super important when discussing such heated topics as this one.

So I asked, and hopefully my old friend doesn't mind me bringing this up since she's no longer around, but she used to swear to me that the reason why she posted in the political forum (and she was a very extreme conservative. Seemingly moreso than the usual) is it brought her business.

Thought, perhaps, that you posted these type of topics because it helped your bottom line.

Most of my client base are conservative. Most of my family is conservative and until about 23 years ago, so was I.

I GET the whole conservative mindset. What I have an issue with is Trump. Period. He's an amoral individual. Scary. Don't care for him at all.

But that's why discussions are good, in my opinion.

What I do not like to read, and I see this with conservatives AND liberals, is this whole "Well, conservatives are like this and liberals are like that" type of tripe.

And arguments are presented in such a fashion all of the time. And that's not civil discourse. It's name calling. Also, there are all different types of conservatives and there are liberals who love their guns (Elisabeth raises her hand!) to offer an example. I hear from both sides about health care concerns.

We are all more alike, overall, with our needs and wants than different.

So that's it.

Glad that you're so strong in your belief systems, Ellen. For me, heck, I try watching Fox News to just TRY to get some sort of a good feeling about the current administration. I sincerely try to be open minded.

Just cannot see anything good from it.

Except for General Mattis. HUGE fan. Liked Rex Tillerson, too.

Oh well, gotta run. Wanted to write more (about the philosophy behind politics and sex work) but have plans for the afternoon that it's time to get ready for.

Hugs,
Elisabeth

Well said Elizabeth.

Worry about yourself

[Austin Ellen]

Thanks Elizabeth,
You know you're right. We are more the same then we are different. Heck, I voted for Ann Richards for Governor of Texas once and she was a Democrat. I loved that woman. She had great big Texas hair and you can't go wrong with a woman like that!
Hugs,
Ellen
