Also, I disagree with calling out another DUer like this.

That post may be against DU rules, in which case it can be alerted or sent to EarlG. Otherwise, I think it's fine. This is an opinion site.

I have a lot of respect for you, Kaleva. I just disagree with you on this. However, I know that you and I both will support President Biden and every other Democrat, up and down the ticket.
