Just an intro thread so far, and already a few firecrackers are going off! *cackle* Oh, I'm going to like it here.
Perhaps I should kill the suspense already.
I'm neither Republican nor Democrat. Not Green, Libertarian, Socialist, etc. I'm Independent, and have been since reaching that magical voting age in 1992. Conservatives who get to know me dislike how godless and liberal I am, and leftists who get to know me dislike that some of my positions are decidedly right-wing. I loathe political correctness. They say you either love Trump or hate him. As usual, I break with the norm and have mixed feelings about Trump... but I'll end up voting for him because my feelings about another Clinton White House aren't mixed at all.
I hope that provides a little more context for the time being.
