"and there was only one political discussion, and I started it."

Well, you were lucky. I got in a few I didn't start and it wound up with a continual stream of winger talking points, none of which bore much relationship to each other, other than they questioned your assumed position on a variety of issues. I suspect strongly that if I had a strong enough stomach to read Coulter's book on how to talk to a liberal, I'd have a better understanding of where those points came from. I haven't encountered so much raw, open racism in decades. And that was in the context of a Klan rally. Inevitably, I would have a finger pointed at me and the truly brilliant phrase, "you are a liberal and I don't have to talk to you!" is issued and they stalk off in righteous indignation.

We are experiencing the O'Reillying of America.

Part of the problem is the Rita victims have been told the reason why little is happening is all of the resources are going to New Orleans. Which doesn't make sense because there ain't much happening in NO either.
