Now that we have that cleared up, are you going to actually start refuting our arguments or are you just going to keep up your stale routine of making things up &/or saying the same thing over & over after it's been proven false or incorrect?

What arguments. I was just responding to off topic opinions. You haven't proven anything false or incorrect.

People are rarely divided into two groups though. I hold some right-wing ideals and some left-wing ideals. I don't feel aligned to either the Democrats or the Republicans (I prefer the Libertarian party). I'm socially liberal, but economically conservative. I'm an atheist, but I'm also an agnostic, etc. etc.
Also, like others have said, please read over your posts once you've made them, or use the "preview" button whilst writing them. I've had to correct about 4 of your posts because you messed up the quote tags.

LOL poor Amtrak. You know those guys take an inordinate amount of shit, they have nasty habit of losing money.

It's a railway line not a shopping mall. Theres one track.
What are train travellers supposed to do?
Pick the gay-friendly one over all the others?
If I was gay, I would find it insulting.

how do you know what you would feel if you were gay, if you are indeed not? that's insulting.
i don't think this ad will make anyone go run to buy tickets on amtrak, but it sits in your memory (like an effective ad campaign should) and next time you decide to take a train ride, maybe you remember this ad and choose amtrak because they were openly mindful of your way of life. so you decide to show your appreciation with your patronage.
