I know you have to kinda read and maybe even think about what I write since "you people" apparantly can't tell where a person stands on a topic unless they include "*******" or "teabagger" in their posts.

Oh, and I'm a fiscal conservative, social liberal so I confuse the heck out of the linear (flat line) thinkers around here.
Well I happen to agree with you that the OP is wrong. The walk out is political just like every other walk out I can remember…

And no need to explain linear… I’m not an uneducated teabaggger…

As long as they keep on walking, if they walk, and don't come back.

If you don't like what they're doing vote them out if they represent your district... If none of them represent your district it's a mut point...

Contrary to what people like "plwhit" and others who think in such strange ways the walkout doesn't look to be racist... I see Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians walking out together in protest... Who would have known...

This is all just political grandstanding and really doesn't have anything to do with race as you guys try to keep making it.

When things get tough the Democrats get going...right out the door, just like the runaway Wisconsin Democrats. Where are these guys walking to? The same hidey hole in Illinois where the Wisconsin politicians ran?

Where's that chicken emoticon when you need it?

I'm socially liberal. I try to keep my personal beliefs and opinons out of it.
Gay, abortion, sex education. Go for it, just don't ask me to financially contribute.

You can check the social issue threads..when I state my beliefs I also state that they are mine and I would not impose them on others.
