Heads -

  I apologize for flying off the handle, it was really stupid for all the reasons spoken of by both David and Vicki. We're not doing any good for anything any of us believe in by getting immature and personal, and, regardless of particular allegiances, we share so many viewpoints that it's a waste of time to take up space that could be used to build understanding. 

  On a personal note, to Vicki, that was WAY out of line on my part, and I felt like an asshole all weekend while hanging out with my Dad - who argues just as vociferously on behalf of the Dems as you do. We get into heated discussions, where we both get passionate, but he's my Dad, and that antagonism is never really allowed to come into play. I think, in many ways, I let go on YOU for all my frustrations with the lack of response I've seen by the Democratic Party to an increasing gap between the parties and the people, in a way that was stupid and reckless. You are far too valuable to the list (and to my own personal political/social development) to say what I said. I hope you understand and accept my apology.

  I'd like to see a response to the actual points I raised, which, in retrospect, may have been overshadowed by the other crap I wrote - Once again, sorry. Most of that anger, like I said before, is really directed at the party's lack of response to the people; many of these questions have never been touched by the party, and I would be interested to hear someone who is obviously as politically passionate as myself tell me why they would support the Dems. 

  Once again y'all, my bad on the flame-out - I'm not much good at self-restraint - and I promise to work on that in the future, or at least direct it at the people who really deserve it. That's right, Carrot Top, Billy Ray Cyrus, and Dean Koontz better watch their asses.
