    No more than you are willing to explain anything at all.

The second is that to love someone means you agree with everything they believe or do. Both are nonsense. You don’t have to compromise convictions to be compassionate.''

    There's one guy that has no idea what it means (but he was very predictable)

    Looking forward now to hearing an intelligent response

    All right, but I know we won't see any from you.

    An "extreme centre" person has been sitting on the fence so long his crack goes right up to his neck.

    He won't support either side of an argument, ever.

    How's that?

    Would being "extreme centre" be akin to giving 110%. Although one may be rabid over being centered in their political stance they cannot give 110%.
    A friend stationed in Afghanistan has retired and stayed on, opening a bomb plant that makes ordinance that look like prayer mats. Profits are through the roof.
