Over a year ago I too got a little fed up with the general discourse and even pulled my measly monthly contribution. But I did it totally in PRIVATE and let only those I respected the most know I'd be off for a while if not forever.
Fortunately I calmed down, got over myself and jumped back in simply because I know I'm not the problem. I'm a freaking genius and I have good points to make. Besides, I like to mix it up as good as the next person. Do I get disappointed? Sure. Who doesn't? Do I wonder how Republicans and conservatives will ever be able to govern given the fact we fight hard amongst ourselves? Of course. But it beats standing in line going off a cliff bleating "baaaaaaaa" like the left does.
We argue, they fall in line and eat their own. Just read some of the sick crap at DU. Hell, I'm mad at my own mother right now because she's an envious crap head that actually believes it should be against the law to own an SUV or a big house and still treats me like I'm a child. I won't talk to her for 60-90 days (again) but it will pan out in the long run.
After reading yet another "I'm leaving so there" thread I'm starting to wonder if there is a sucicide pact going on we should investigate! lol
If I was going to leave, I would just leave and quit posting for awhile. I wouldn't go to the trouble of writing up something if I was that fed up!
Hey you!
I just saw your post to me!
Yes, I know you quietly departed last year.
Sent me and a few selected others a FR mail.
I look at the OPUSes as a way of saying good bye to friends
and having one's say. I don't mind them one bit. :)
LOL! No suicide pact that I know about.
I'm still here.
I still donate a $1-A-Day.
All true statements, 'maus! :)
