Full of ideas and practical plans for a successful path forward. The finish was as inspiring as Sgt Remsburg, that fine and brave young man.

The hate and vitriol I've read on this board these last days shouldn't surprise me but the intensity of it did. I salute you, ProSense, and the others who had the stamina to wade in and wage the fight with common sense and dignity.

It can't be easy to deal with such irrational hatred. I understand disagreement, I just don't get the bitter hatred so-called Democrats seem to have for this President.
