    Just saying Hey!

    My politics are pragmatic and although I have more conservative views than liberal ones, I tend to be stuck in the middle. I have a habit of driving liberals and conservatives nuts...

    Put me in coach, I’m ready to play...

    ;)

    I have been called a mugwump in the past. I do make the attempt to view issues thru non partisan lenses.

    ah well...good luck with the centrist thing with your fellow septics...I'm guessing you'll be sliced and diced and shoved in a pidgeon hole before you can say "huh???"
    Tad short on pragmatics here but you never know you may find a kindred spirit...anyway....happy hunting mate..:)

    Thanks, I appreciate that. It’s ironic but I get more grief for not taking a side vs taking the wrong side...

    Always the way mate...but eventually you'll get manouvered into taking a position so that whoever you're discussing something with can make their verbal play.

    Hi Centerfield. I’m new as well and think we’ll get along fine. The middle is a good place to be. I think it gives us the unique ability to reason from a nonpartisan perspective.
