   Ha ha.. Love the dig on the POLITICS echo, I am not the only one who prefers   
   the discussions in this ECHO, which for the most part seems to be more   
   objective and almost always start with the actual news source of what the OP   
   wishes to discuss.  Vs. the Vitrolic subjective responses that basically all   
   say, "I don't care what evidence you give me, I believe what I believe and   
   nothing will change my mind, and you're stupid and I'm not.."   I was married   
   to someone with that mindset for 13 years, and learned to just immediately   
   tune out...
