Well said. I knew that I would get some intelligent response with this topic.
This topic came up out of the blue. Normally I don't even think about politics(with the exception of my Political rant post), let alone write about it. I only had thoughts running through my head at work and when I had the chance I wrote them down. I knew I would post them here, since intellectual conversation is more than welcome here.
If anyone doesn't like a topic on this site, they choose not to reply to it. There are many topics that don't have one of my 600+ posts added to it. And that's simply because I choose not to reply. I don't want controversy, just conversation. AND I don't want to see another topic locked due to personal attacks.
I usually sit idly by and don't speak my mind about people posting personal attacks, but after the last one, I've got to say something now.
Dogma: We live in an age where freedom of speech runs wild. It's a human right. What I say here(within reason), is acceptable to most people.

You're from Toronto right?

Why is this an issue with you? Don't Canadians have rights to talk about American issues? Yes we do! We are your neighbours afterall.

Good, next time while your letting your mind wander at work... think about something other than our President.

Again, you can't tell me what to do. What I think about at work, however many miles away from you I am, you can't control me. Unless you're telepathic and can read minds.

It will save me from getting annoyed.

Why should I worry about annoying you? You are only one person. I would understand if what I said was offensive and rude, and if it affected more than one person, I would apologise for any wrongdoing and be done with it.
Really? We'll see.

I'm tired of being the only republican.

I'm sure there are hundreds of thousands of republicans out there, some just aren't on this site. I myself don't care for politics, so I don't choose to be anything.
One last point. If you want to say things like that to someone, do it in a private message or don't do it at all.
