This is an AP article. I am not surprised the ones who unfriend are leftists.

Those of you who are friends with me on Facebook might notice that I never post anything about politics.  Sure, I might "like" a post regarding politics.  But I use the site to keep in touch with "old" friends, post occasional pithy & sarcastic comments often about sports.  But very little personal.

That's why I reserve my political beliefs to here & CU.

The only time I've ever unfriended anyone on FB is when some guy I didn't even know (but was a veteran, so hey) reached down into his bag of bigotry and railed on about how Mexico was going to rule California.

Hey, I have no love lost for the land of fruits and nuts, but that was a little much.

Other than that, the only thing I'm somewhat vocal about (when I have time, which is not often), 2A. As to the candy-dates for President, they're all big, steaming piles of shit -- both pachyderm and donkey.
