While I have had my moments on PPOT with others with whom I disagree, I have always felt we would be fast friends if we ever meet in real life. With these folks, while they hold a (sometimes vastly) different perspective than mine, I always feel like I'm discussing the topic at hand with an intelligent, well-meaning individual that honestly holds to their beliefs and can explain them rationally.

I simply never got that feeling from Rodeo. He was here for one purpose and for one purpose only, to troll. I cannot understand people that participate in any discourse or forum to make enemies; either by design or by habit. Things are certainly better around here without him. My only fear is that wherever he is now, things have gotten that much worse and, if you guys are right that he may have gotten a job in our new Congress, that simply compounds my fears. Oh well; maybe he is just a paige, and the Dems actually follow through on their text messages. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
