    Now that the crowd has thinned. I have an open and honest question. Please do not take this as anything more than a thoughtful critique. I do see the value in forcing a person to question their views in a public forum. That being said.

    What benefit is there to a satirical account that parrots the talking points of those in power?

      Just because my views are different than yours doesn’t make me sarcastic or satirical.

        Your comment history begs to differ

        This is a valid and honest opinion you hold and are willing to defend?

          It isn’t an unpopular view.

          Did Winston Churchill not say that democracy is the worst form of government?

            That’s not a defense of your position. That’s a quote out of context. Is this more of your satire?
