Threadjackers Will Be Persecuted (Maybe Even Prosecuted)

[quote=jpinpb]Agree that politics and economics are intertwined. But arguing about political parties is IMO useless. Frankly, from all I’ve been gathering, they are pretty much one and the same. Slight differences, but both parties beholden to one master. And I’ve also noticed that some people just select parties based on candidates’ personalities. [/quote]

The slight differences are what separate compassion from greed, and humans from monkeys.

You have only so many choices, jp. You have to examine closely to see the true beauty.

I could be in favor of this. Let’s start w/how both parties have double standards and lie and are inept.[/quote]

Jp: I think most intelligent, and non-partisan debaters would completely agree. Using what you posted above as a baseline, it would actually be interesting to do a comparison showing that both Democrat and Republican politicians are simply in the business of getting re-elected and servicing their constituents has taken a backseat to pleasing the Big Money that got them there.

I would wager that what most annoys Rich is the “neener, neener” aspect of Republican versus Democrat sniping and not the actual debates about the issues themselves (some of which are quite good). I may disagree vehemently with SK or afx or Raider hater Gandalf, but I certainly respect their acumen and debating style.

Gandalf, AFF is baiting you….that is not the first anchovy he’s launched in your direction….

Shadowfax: Bating? Baiting?!? Perish the thought. My observation regarding Gandalf’s known antipathy towards the Silver and Black was entirely benign. Really. Honest.

Maybe.
