No way.. everyone is entitled to their own opinions and political views. Anytime something controversial, political, or religious is brought up you are going to get people that post differences of opinion.

I find many of the posts on this thread rude, starting with julieg's, who basically calls everyone who prefers this candidate a mindless idiot.

The OP wrote a thread saying what a thrill it was to meet him. He's considered the most charismatic speaker of our day. I would pay money to hear someone with his reputation speak in person. The OP got to meet him, talk to him, pose with him. I have no doubt the OP will be showing those pictures to her grandchildren with pride.

I'm excited for her. And it has nothing to do with my political beliefs.

I have yet to see a thread that mentions politics on YorkieTalk turn out to be anything but what this has turned into. Name-calling. Maybe we ought to stick to talking about Yorkies.
