<<But at the same time, we also have liberal types who are equally dogmatic, equally untruthful, and equally spiteful.>>

Yup. The past 8 years, I have read Daily Kos regularly and have largely shared Markos' anger toward what the Bush admin was doing to the US.

But since the election, I think I'll probably un-bookmark it. First Kos launched a vicious, vindictive campaign against Joe Liebermann, then when that didn't work, now he's trashing Reid.

I now think Kos is basically an angry, spiteful and dogmatic person exactly as you describe. This is not a time to be knifing "traitors", it's a time to be reaching out. Just coz I've been a short seller this year doesn't mean I don't want some economy left when it's time to go long again.

OT: "Well…..piss on you both, both camps."

This seems to be a near-universal sentiment from Bush voters these days. My choices sucked! They ALL suck!

They DO. But NOBODY sucks harder than George W. Bush did. America may never recover.

Let me ask you this, do you still think W was a superior choice to Gore or Kerry? If you do, you haven't faced reality YET.

"Whatever he has done is soon to be in the past tense, where history will temper the public’s final opinion and the only real judgment that counts, will weigh in."
Yeah right....you're dreaming.

I'm going to respond because you posted to me. With any powerful social movement there will be a powerful REACTION. I don't think either camp here will be victorious. I think it's time to throw away the Cossak and become a revolutionary. But you got a right to say whatever you want. Best. <g>

>> Seventeen years living overseas and I can tell you – this is what makes America great, our ability to cut others some slack. Look at our charity and our foreign spending. Look at how patient we are with rogue countries. It leaves us hugely vulnerable, but it is our greatest strength and it scares the crap out of our enemies. I know this because I have seen it dealing with people one-on-one, in countries that are not friendly. <<

{26 recs!} What are you afraid of??? Are you in the military??? Do you consider MILITARY SPENDING charitable?? Do you consider our domestic health care programs charitable. How about all the charity we give to WS... My gosh man. What planet do you live on???
