		<description>Ferd, I swear it is nothing personal.  I have had comments caught in the filter, too.  Buzz is right - if you use the word &quot;i.d*i-o,t&quot; in any variation, it will grab it.  You can use just abt any curse word in the book and sail right on through!  It has a mind of its own, I tell ya.

And honestly, we all try to check it regularly, but sometimes we get busy or are away from our computers, or what have you.  I swear it is NOT a person sitting there scanning the comments.  It is just our whacked out filter.

Please do not go - you are a valued member here!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The pendulum will swing back, I hope…&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I think it will. I hope we can also see the swinging stop altogether and find a way towards moderation and centrism. That&#039;s the only sustainable answer in my mind.</description>

		<description>Right there with ya...They&#039;ve lost me after the way they treated Hillary and women in general, not to mention the LGBT community...

And Nellie, that&#039;s a good question.  I think some people are finally starting to wake up and realize our country is changing in ways that are not democratic.  Little by little, people are speaking up all across the country.  The pendulum will swing back, I hope...</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I never want to see one party in control of all three branches of government.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>mountainaires, I will volley for a spell with ya, :)

&lt;em&gt;The other half is macho chauvinist.&lt;/em&gt;

That is only &quot;half&quot; right. LOL He isn&#039;t macho in the least. You recall until not so recently when being macho was a silent way of carrying oneself?

For example, recently daughter #2 19, said that the young man who was on leave from Afghanistan she was hanging with, and who she knew from high school (just last year) , really liked her and she him.
 He asked her if she liked him and when she said she did, He said, &quot;Why? Do you know what I do for a living? I wish you had said you didn&#039;t, because the pain of being rejected would have been easier than the pain of missing you.&quot; 

When I met him the first thing I noticed is a 20 year carrying himself like a &quot;macho&quot; person. You can&#039;t miss it when you see it. 

He asked my daughter &quot;to wait for him&quot;. Now I do not what fate has in store, but I &lt;em&gt;do&lt;/em&gt; know that our men and women that serve need to know there are people they can depend on. 

PS. Macho is also a Marine in Dress Uniform. Sharp as a tack.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Ironically, if Dr. Hassan wanted out of the military so badly all he needed to do was declare himself to be gay. That would have done it! &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Hmm...that really is true isn&#039;t it? 

A salient point that might have a very profound impact on DADT if it were introduced into the wider media narrative. Some columns, some commentary, some interviews on major cable outlets discussing it. 

It&#039;s a bit intriguing that Hasan didn&#039;t use it; I wonder why, since he must have known he could get out if he said he was gay. Was his religious fervor prohibiting him from considering it seriously because it is against Islam? Or was he so obsessed with his radical views, he decided to become a martyr instead?</description>

Obama&#039;s a homophobe who happens to be half-black. The other half is macho chauvinist. 

Heh.</description>
