Short answer, yes. I tend to be VERY liberal, (who would have guessed that!

) and in general this forum tends to lean a bit to the right.
I sometimes have to remind myself of the advice from this well known conservative.
"Civilization depends on, and civility often requires, the willingness to say, 'What you are doing is none of my business' and 'What I am doing is none of your business."
George Will
Having said that, I am often impressed with some of the ideas posited by some of the contributors, who, while I definitely don't agree with them... make me challenge my own thoughts on a subject.
"If you have learned how to disagree without being disagreeable, then you have discovered the secret of getting along - whether it be business, family relations, or life itself."
