Obama (I'm so confused.)

I don't doubt that there are lies floating around about him. However, there is also a lot that is true and that can't be denied. Either way you have to vote for who you believe in. Safe to say I don't believe in him at all!

Ladies, I know we all have some important decisions to make, and open discussion is what this forum is all about. I think you all know that I have particularly strong views on some very controversial subjects, and enjoy discussing them. However, for the sake of harmony on 4WT, I for one am willing to suspend discussion of political topics until Christmas if need be. We have a really amazing group here, and want us all to remain close friends. I know, I've started some of the political threads, so if you wish to point this out, I'm guilty as charged. Is suspension of this topic one thing we can all agree on?? BTW, a kind PM by an awesome lady inspired this post. I can't take credit for this wonderful idea.

I also want to say that I think it is much better for us to handle this than having Admin put restrictions on our conversations as has occurred in other forums. I'm sure you will agree with this.

It has my vote!! I'm always so afraid controversial topics will get out of hand and I would hate that for 4WT. So to whoever PM'd you...GREAT IDEA!!!

I guess I ruffled a few feathers. I won't post anymore.

No feathers of mine seem ruffled. I'll have to check them out! I may have to get them blown out now.

Seriously, thanks Marilyn. I think that's a great idea. I don't think anyone came on too strong, but I agree that we should probably suspend political discussions.
I put some references to articles on another thread. I also hope nobody got offended.

We all pretty much know who we are all voting for, and we still love each other.
That's one of the things I love best about being an American. We are blessed with
such freedom.

Im with you Michelle, he promises change,,, but don't you think past presidents already tried ! i hear him shouting change but don't see any results behind it!

Michelle, I posted this once before, but my post is not showing up. Please don't stop posting. We enjoy interacting with you. Some of us are just concerned that we may get carried away and cause some hurt feelings. No feathers ruffled here either by the way. I enjoy a good political debate and have some strong views on some controvercial religious and political subjects, and given the opportunity, I will voice my views and try to convince you to agree with me.

We just want to keep things friendly on 4WT and take action before feelings do get hurt. We want to maintain our free speach on here and not have Admin step in and put restrictions on us as has occurred on other sites. We care very much about you and hope you will stay with us!!!

Everyone, I meant no harm in this thread. I only wanted to show how I raised my Daughters to have a mind of their own. I'm proud of the fact that they are not afraid to tell me what they believe in and that they share their views with me.
If you read the OP you'll see that this is an E-mail that I received, not my beliefs.
Michelle, please come back.
Everyone I'm sorry, I've missed you all.

Now just let this thread die a peaceful death.
