I understand the fact that people ignore information that conflicts with their set views in order to minimize internal conflict. but i don't agree with everything here.

This country is moving towards the left as a whole. People are less educated, more ignorant, less motivated and less prepared to succeed on their own in this world. There is now a larger chasm between liberals and conservatives because the left has moved so much farther to the left in the last 100 years. Our country is becoming what our founders fought to get away from. That is a large part of the problem is in my opinion, the widening difference between conservatives and liberals.

But ya, I agree there is way to much nastiness and ridicule as opposed to intelligent, respectful discussions.

I have to sa IMO this is one of the truest posts I've ever seen on this board.

Give the Browns fan a break Toney he's one of the good ones. But I guess in a way it is theriputic to rip into someone (Don't get your bloomers in a wad I don't mean it's just you, hell I do it too) There's a few of us here that get into heated debates or arguments, that sometimes get out of hand, but I guess we all feel pasionatly about our beliefs, I guess the positive side is we can voice our opinions, people are starting to wake up and get more into politics.

Take me living in China for example, politics is a no-no unless you are but kissing the establishment rosey yellow behind, decent is usually crushed, but on the other hand the average Chinese person has no desire to worry about politics. For example not long after I first met my wife (mind you she is a colledge grad) she didn't even know who the president of China was

In my opnion each side is gaining strength, (left and the right not much middle ground anymoe) the next elections (I mean all the way down to the local level) will reflect on how people percieve Obama is doing, just like with Bush, when people went out and said hey "screw you guys, I'm voting Democrat across the board.

No brown noseing, but I know we must give the mods fits sometimes. sorry bout that.....

Too many handouts, especially to non americans and now we are paying. No one wants to work for anything anymore. Close the borders, quit giving welfare to Eastern Europeans, Mexicans etc. Get tough on crime, kill on death row prisoners and free up room for the future screw ups. Fire these politicians who break the law, hold people accountable.
