Very good post, PP. I agree. I've had "friends" on both sides of the fence with agendas. IRL, it seems that many are uncomfortable with my moderate to moderately conservative views. And I refuse to be out into a box and stamped with someone else's label.
I have many, many casual friends. We must, however, be cautious in choosing those with whom we become "yolked" in close friendship.
