Subtoot from birdsite re arguing on the internet
Nothing gives me more respect for politicians than arguing for one quick thread with somebody who I agree with on 99% of everything.
It's stressful, I can't finish the conversation and drop out, and that's with somebody who I basically have no fundamental disagreement with, with nothing real on the line.
I can't imagine what it must be to have to discuss bills that might end up the law, and millions of people are watching and will comment.
