"I have to acknowledge that my posts have been a BIG part of this problem. I am very passionate about this country and I am a Patriot and a very Proud American. I can not apologize for that. In my own defense I would like to say that I do not initiate political posts but I do feel compelled to respond to them. As I said in my post last night, I will no longer respond to any political post on this board."

I agree with the 1st part.

But if you stick to the last statement, you will be allowing bad info stand on its own!!!
I can not do that nor will I.
