Hi everyone,

While this thread has not crossed any lines at all, I see potential. There are many things I would like to say to some of the comments made here, but I won't because I'd only be stoking a fire that does not require any help.

I have kept politics out of the show, in spite of the fact that three of us have VERY VERY strong political opinions - we do that out of respect for all of our listeners. You don't listen to the show to hear our opinions on politics, you listen to the show to hear our opinions on Disney.

I say this only as a cautionary note - lets make sure that our comments are respectful of everyone's feelings. We don't have to agree - but it's important to remember that 30 different people can have 30 different opinions and no one has to be wrong.

Thanks,
Pete

No problem, Pete... I respect you guys immensely and I see your point. I will cease any further discussion of this stuff for the reason you mentioned. I, for one, mean no ill will and I don't think anyone else did either, though I see the potential for some offense to be taken. This needs to remain the "Second Happiest Place on Earth."

I hope all is well with your personal journey you are undertaking and I just wanted to let you know what a great thing you have created here and I think we can all agree that we appreciate all your hard work as well as the work of your fellow team members. Thank you for all you do.

I second this as well, and I appreciate Pete stepping in before someone did post something that went too far.

Nedac - I did enjoy our short political debate and did not think anything went too far. I respect your points, but I will continue to disagree with many of your thoughts, as I support social programs, offering my fellow American a helping hand, and personal freedoms. I was able to follow the same path you did to personal success, but some of that came on the heals of the generous government funding of college loans and grants in the 90s, and without those I never would have the degree/career I have. And finally, while you cited certain topics as moral issues, government was trying to direct those in ways that were not fair to all. Marriage is not a religious institution if you do not want it to be - it is a formal contract in the eyes of the government. I was not married in a religious ceremony - in fact I was married at the Wedding Pavilion by a J/P!! I just would like to see everyone have the same opportunity.

Thanks for the spirited intellectual discussion. See you at Mousefest?

No Mousefest for me... I will be there this week! Leaving tomorrow! Woo Hoo!

By the way, I also funded (and still am) my education through school loans and grants. I have no problem helping fund educations so future generations can do what we did. Its people like my mother and sisters who take advantage of government programs because they don't want to work. I love them, but they make a great example of themselves For example, two of my sisters won't get married because they have children and would lose their free check from the government. One is working on getting her MBA and I can somewhat understand her plight... the other.... again a good example.

Anywho, I said I would shut up, so I will. We will see what the future holds... I hope you are right and I am wrong

I hate election years. All it does is divide everybody every four years=_='

But on a lighter note, yes, I voted for the first time this year. Issues aside, my vote was for Obama. Since I actually got past my skepticism of politics to go vote for him, he'd better do a good job lol

We're only divided every four years? Are you sure about that? Then again, I'm in college. People are always arguing.
