    I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned

    • Ned sucks all the oxygen out of the room. Nobody pays any attention to ME when he's in the thread. I say good riddance!

        • I'll miss Ned, even though occassionally he would drive me absolutely crazy - like the time we got into a discussion on the Laffer curve However, Ned could genuinely surprise you, like the excellent discussion he and I once had at the end of a thread about the use of the A-bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Ned claimed it was unjustified, and had some excellent sourcing. I still didn't agree, but he showed how one could reasonably draw a different conclusion.

            • A thriving democracy needs all kinds of different voices, and OT was always the best place to get a variety of opinions. Come back, Ned.

              • It is my experience that the o/t is almost all about opinions. And we all know opinions are like a**holes everybody has one. To need to be thick skinned around here is what you have to be. Ned was a good poster he had his opinions and not everyone agreed with them but that didnt make him a bad guy. If he is taking time away i hope this time gives him the solace he is seeking

                • I agree, I didn't like Ned's opinions but he seemed like a good guy. I don't ever recall him launching a personal attack on anyone.
