Hey girlfriend, I like your taste in music--and your taste in politics! You're the best, proglib!
I saw your comment on why you joined the vine. I liked it. So I hope you accept my FR.
Just want you to know, its out of great respect to you that I am holding back the urge to respond to an idiotic poster on one of your seeds. I really.... really want to... but Im not going to do it. I know that if I do, it will only end up as a discussion that has nothing to do with the article and likely I will be banging my head into my keyboard crying WTF?
