It’s enough to make me you-know-what…
So it’s time to repeat it.
We get emails. Oh, boy do we get emails. And in a week we’re called “a Bush-hating liberal…..part of the right wing cheerleading squad….really a Democrat…really a Republican.” The only thing we haven’t been called is a Michael Jackson look-alike. The next thing you know, someone will start a rumor that TMV is short.
So it’s time to repeat it: we call each issue as we see it. We’re in no one’s camp. And if you read our co-bloggers, while some may seem veering towards one direction or another, each one is a highly independent thinker who doesn’t indulge in typical blogspeak.
So if you’re new to the site, you’ll like some posts, greatly disagree with others, agree with some, hate others, but we do call the shots as we see them. Independently.
