It seems we all agree on the set of facts here - the two-party system basically maintains the status quo. Whoever is elected from whichever party, he (or she) ain't gonna change much even if he/she wanted to, and probably would not in his/her heart even want to.

What we don't agree about is whether that is a good thing or a bad thing.

What I really cannot understand is how any of you - anybody in their right mind at all - could not be damn near ecstatically happy with life the way we have it now in this country. One or more of you negative nancys please explain that.

As for me, I have over sixty years experience to draw from, and I am firmly convinced that we have far more enjoyable things in our lives than ever before, and plenty of freedom to do that enjoying. Really, what else is there? If you guys want to CHANGE away from what we have, what in the hell do you want to change to?

hahahaha Things stay pretty damn civil in here when you know who stays away.

I even know a few gays who are very happy with the WONDERFULNESS of life here. Nobody that is both gay and Latino, but whatever. If your guy ain't happy here, then what the hell is he doing here instead of going back to beautiful Guatemala? Could it be that they torture and/or kill gays there?

Still waiting for you change-aholics to say what you would like to change life in America TO.

"I know you are, but what am I?" would be the "immortal" words you're looking for, texas.

As far as what we "changeaholics" are looking for is concerned, you don't really pay attention to what anybody says on here, do you?

I'm pretty sure the '14 and '16 elections will reflect that.

Several of you guys have spoken the "tear it down" words without stating what you would replace it with.

I don't know who if any of ya'all have been anywhere else in the world, but I have to ask, WHERE do you see anything remotely close to the GREAT life we all have here - by basically any standard you want to judge it by? Freedom, Security from harm, Comfort and Enjoyment? So what if some/most politicians are doing whatever. If in fact that even is the case, how exactly does it affect your daily life? It sure as hell doesn't affect mine.

So I ask any of you guys - again - specifically WHAT would you want to change, and what would you want to change it to?

One more thing regarding those politicians of both parties you guys hate so much: One side appreciates how great things are and doesn't want the change you seem to crave; The other side at least knows the political reality - that people with good sense are the solid majority, and if they do anything very significant toward that change, they will get their asses kicked electorally.

How Gunny and Dumbass think they are good anything is beyond comprehension. Their version of "good American" is to be a formal military man so you can openly be a hateful bigot and think people need to lick your boots. Thanks for your service guys, but isn't Veterans Day enough - or do we all need to praise you on a daily basis. For the love of God guys, get your conceit in check.

I know it gave you a great life and all, but the wars we have fought post WWII have been nothing but bull shit politician's wars.

You're sick, Dakota - get help!

To the powers that be: here's another example of a nice civil normal thread - two sides not in agreement, but going back and forth in a decent normal civil way - then this loser comes along to spoil things, spewing his usual hate.

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol
