I'm curious, though, with the recent rash of poltical threads, what you guys are hoping to accomplish? It all looks like a bunch of hard headed arguing that never goes anywhere to me.that depends, a political discussion with no facts or information is worthless and ends up being a shouting match.
I burned out on political discussion after the 04 election and didnt touch them for a long time, but occasionally now Ill jump in one with some facts or to disprove a faulty point.
There are also a few (very few...) people on the other side of the political fence who I have talked to who dont have their heads up their asses and can make an intelligent argument (like my girlfriend) and I enjoy hearing their opinions and arguments, and often learn things.
like I said earlier, this thread is only half serious and patterned after Jacks republican hate-parade, and Im curious where its going. The "right" answer to my question is of course what Mikey pointed out. Stupid people everywhere (there just happen to be more stupid dems
j/k )I guess Im not surprised that in only a few posts it turned from "35% of all democrats think bush was in on 9/11" to "all the worlds problems are the republicans fault"
