February 19, 200323 yr been following your discussions with apu and would like to offer a little advice..if you dont want it then just dont bother reading this any further..no offense will be taken.. we probably agree politically about 75% of the time...but i think your message gets lost when you go off on these personal attacks...it can be tough and it gets frustrating when you are debating someone that you feel is 180* opposite of what you believe...but if you try and remain civil you will find that there is always some common ground... ive been up many a night argueing with cwsox..along the way we have found out we agree on a few things...we are both against the death penalty and this one really surprised me but CW is for having a draft where everyone must serve 2 years in the military..that really knocked me for a loop...now if i was always personally attacking him because we disagree on alot of issues i would have never found that out about him...plus we all the white sox as a common denominator... along the way in my life ive changed my mind on a few politcal ideals..i changed my stand on the death penalty...national health care to name a few..as ive gotten older ive become more sensitive to social issues...now my wife is a liberal...she has changed her views a little too..biggest change for her was going from pro choice to pro life...i think youll always keep your core values but you will change your views a little too as you gain life experience..(code word for getting old ) guess im just saying try an argue your points with apu and the others you disagree with on the merits of your position and not on personal attacks..think youll have a betetr chance of getting your point across again this is just my opinion and you know what they say opinions are like ...
February 20, 200323 yr I apologized to apu and I enjoy the political conversations and I hope we can carry on with them. I agree with just about nothing of what he says but Ill not attack him anymore...
