By the word 'Opponent' I simply mean those that you are frequently in disagreement with, not necessarily someone in an opposing political party.
I find that I like a lot of the 'liberal' posters here, if not they soon find their way to my ignore list. The first thing I like is that they seem to be honest and sincere. Secondly they seem to put a great deal of thought into their posts very frequently (most posts really dont require a lot of thought reacting to another post). Thirdly is that they have a sense of humor and seem to realize that 200 years from now, no one is going to give a flying frack about what we all have done here, so there is a self-realization that this is not 'for keeps'.
In that vein, I have to say I appreciate Mac1958 for his many posts, sense of humor and the reflection he brings to the discussion here. I disagree with him about 50% of the time, but he always seems to have good reasons for his assertions.
The same goes for Xelor, Care4All, Peach, Montrovant, Toro, and Coyote.
While I also greatly enjoy the posts of some others who are more conservative and agree with quite a bit, it is really the thoughtful opposing points of view that keep bringing me back.
