Last night, Bill Maher had a New Rules that summed up the difference between a Republican and a Democrat, by making a comparison between people of the 50's and 60's.

Obviously there's a lot more differences, but this is a good start. I don't think the demographics allow us to "return to the 1950's America - because every American enjoys the same Constitutional rights; so those Americans that long for this type of country again, should maybe start making arrangements to start living off grid in remote areas of the world.

Troy is right. There ARE differences. The democrats think it's fine to use violence to show their dissatisfaction. While republicans use words.
Democrats (Obama) does what he wants, regardless if it's against the rules (forcing Obama care on the people) while republicans follow the law.
Troy can't make actual arguments against what I believe, so he just lumps me in as a "stupid Bible believing republican" so he can ignore my intelligent comments instead of any actual debate where he would have to show why he believes how he does.
It's because he knows he can't come up with any intelligent reasons.
So just "poo poo" me so he can continue his love of being hateful.
It's a shame, really.

These conversations have run their course. I'm not going to argue with idiots, who vote against their own financial interests, anymore.

Of course they have ran there course... they ran there course here long ago. All the political "discussions" (using that term as loosely as humanly possible) have done is try to trashed a once prosperous site with petty little arguments and barb throwing. Just more of following along with the true impact that these "debates" have done to this fine country. We spend more time at each others throats than actually making progress.

Is that the design of it all? Keep the country conflicted as the 1% continue to erode the fabric of the country.

We have two parties littered with deceit and getting caught red handed... yet we press on with the spin control. The spin of course is to attempt to make the other party worse... because they certainly can't expose the truth.

Full circle back to this type of engagement here... round and round... Ratt had it right so long ago.

Respect was lost in the process long ago on the national stage.... can we not emulate the lost that live upon the hill?


Once upon a time here, I read most of the content posted here, today, I mostly avoid anything that is discussed outside of the football, yet even that tries to be invaded.

The "Darkness" (have to qualify that statement in todays world, dark·ness ˈ(därknəs)/ 2.wickedness or evil.) of politics knows no bounds..

You are right. I'm sorry I allowed myself to be drawn into it. Although I do believe that in doing so, some will see the difference in trying to discuss, and just name call.
I try to have an open mind when someone has a differing opinion, not just ignore what they say because of their political stance or religion (or lack there of). But I admit, it gets hard after awhile when the same respect isn't shown back to you, and you are just called an idiot over and over.

I will try in the future to ignore it.
Again, Shawn, I apologize.
