    Camille in general

    I'm a right-wing conservative because, as Maggie Thatcher said, the facts of life are conservative. I am always open to opposing arguments since I never feel I have all the facts, nor necessarily am always reasoning correctly. Most liberal commentators are not worth bothering about since none of them have ever given 5 seconds of thought to anything but just spout the Party Line. I appreciate you because, although I frequently disagree with you, you DO think and always present a thoughtful and well-reasoned argument. Which has modified my views on more than one occasion. Keep it up; gadflies are needed now more than ever!
