I don't know much about you. I don't know whether you love Hillary or hate Hillary. I don't know whether you think Snowden and Manning are traitors or patriots. I don't know whether you think Wall Street is the scourge of humanity or an imperfect tool of imperfect human beings. I don't know whether you think Obama is the best president since Lincoln or worse than Shrub. I don't know if you have five bars or started lurking yesterday. I don't even know whether you like cats better than dogs!
But I do know one thing with absolute certainty, with rock solid surety, with irrefrangible confidence: you are a human being. Whatever I write here will be read by human eyes. Whatever response I make to a comment will register however briefly on a human heart.
Because you are human, I try to write with civility. I try to remember that a real, flesh and blood person will read my replies. We disagree on so, so much (we're Democrats - of course we disagree!) but surely we can agree on this: love your neighbor.
There's a poll if you'd like to take it. Or not - your choice.
Love one another.
