I'm not afraid to debate and have done it for years elsewhere (not DU), but don't wanna throw caution to the wind too early, either. Also, let's not be as silly as DU is and try to imagine that you guys aren't going to slam me with personal attacks left and right if a debate does happen. It's okay though, I'm pretty thick-skinned and not too easily hurt by all that (unlike the hypersensitivity brigade at DU, who scream "homophobia" because someone does not include "I'm pro-gay marriage" in every post, or "RACISM" if you criticize Zero).
Then again, I have my own little pet issues - but you guys couldn't hurt me on them. What hurt me was the so-called "progressives" attacking it. The same "progressives" that care oh-so-much on paper (except checkbook paper). You guys are expected not to care. The left is - although once again, it bears repeating that DU ain't left. It's liberal, and that's something else entirely.
