Farewell Pols and Friends

•  
• by: Haners

I am sad to say that after this diary (and any discussion contained herewith), I will no longer be posting or participating with Coloradopols.  

As such, I wanted to take the opportunity to that Pols for allowing me to share their “soapbox”, and providing what was a great opportunity to exchange ideas, have heated arguments, and form friendships.

I would also like to express my deep appreciation for some of you who I have enjoyed exchanging ideas with.  While I fear that I may forget some, here I go…

David-I very much appreciate your level headed approach to our discussions and your posts.  You are a great ambassador for liberalism, and if more posters were like you, the blogging world would be a vastly better place.  Please keep up the good work!

Steve Harvey-Thanks for your intellectual and respectful approach to your views.  Discussing things with you has challenged my understanding and views, and has made me much more grounded in or changed my views.

Ari-While our discussions have gotten heated at times, we always managed to put that behind us and not hold a grudge.  You’re great!

Laughing Boy-Setting your endorsement of Obama aside 🙂 you have been a great voice for conservatism.  You’ve fought a lot of fights that I didn’t have the energy for and I always valued your input.

Redstateblues-Man, you rock!  You are one of the most intellectually honest posters here, and you have a way of seeing past the partisan crap.  Keep it up!

Dabee47-Man, if you’re not training to become a political scientist, you should be.  I deeply valued your perspective.
