Of course it is lopsided. Most E.O. members are business people and many are owner/operators. As such, we tend toward the right side of the political spectrum. We are more independent, self-sufficient and willing to take risks. Even though we are in a highly regulated industry, it does offer us more freedom than so called "traditional jobs".
"It's the cowboy way". Ranger Doug
I believe that many of Doug's posts on the Soap Box forum were way more to the extreme left than his actual political beliefs. I think Doug was having some fun with the majority.

Merely an observation, actually, and in very general terms. If someone views it as an insult, then clearly they have a reason to do so. Nothing veiled about it.
Not really, but I did sleep in a Holiday Inn Express last night.
you can afford the Holiday Inn? *L*

An EO member who claims to have seen the original infraction called me this A.M. If what they say is the actual violation, well, I stand by my original contention...political persecution. It was technically nothing more than an acronym. What a load of manure...Par for the course around here.

Agreed. My opinion still stands.
If I used that same type of cryptic cussing towards another in here that I was not in political agreement would you feel the same way? Just asking. It is amusing when you read things in here and many other places or just when listening to people talk that a "voice of reason" is always someone that you agree with. Human nature is the same where ever you go.

Shouldn't the title of this post be changed from "Another voice of reason is silenced" to "Another EO member gets canned for violating the code of conduct" ??
aww that is another kettle of fish....If a mod were to change the title they would then be accused of censorship and suppressing free speech...

YES. I would feel EXACTLY the same. It isn't that I agree or disagree with Doug. As I understand it , the spirit of this thread is debate. Debate gets heated. The D-12 that OVM has mentioned pretty much dictates what goes on around here. You know it and I know it.

Only the owners and their administrators decide who crosses the line that THEY drew in the sand. They did that to try to insure at least SOME civility to this forum. I have NO problem with that. I am sure that I have come up to that line from time to time but I TRY NOT to cross it. Doug knew what he was doing, as do I and most everyone else in here. While I might not always agree with Doug, or anyone else for that matter, on every issue I support their right to speak it. I also reserve my right to speak mine.
