USMB is a community...often in this partisan atmosphere - it can get toxic. But we exist beyond a political label.
So...who are you? What can you tell us that we might not expect, in our readiness to label?
I'll start.
I adore dogs, they've given meaning to my life as I have no children (but, no, I don't think of them AS child replacements - they are who they are). I'm involved in Australian Shepherd rescue but have a soft spot for all the herding dogs and Pitties too. Any dog. I have a real fondness for asshole dogs no one else wants.
I have cats. They rule. Need more be said?
I live in a state that is VERY red, but also full of wonderfully kind people. The sort that when you stupidly drive to fast in a snowstorm and plow into a drift will pull you out.
I love hiking and running and live in the perfect area to enjoy both.
I love horses but will never be able to afford them.
I love to read - my junk food reading of choice is mysteries and sci fi.
I"ve enjoyed conversations with liberals and conservatives both...and learned things and adjusted my assumptions.
I think our country is great.
Who are you?
