I have noticed something on here

Sometimes I think they get chippy because you say things like "the garbage put out the from the republican party" and calling Romney and Ryan "a bunch of clowns". If someone said the same of Mr. Obama, would you not defend him?

Minus my liberal use of the word "the".

Both sides need to realize they are guilty. Both sides need to realize they have no room to complain about this sort of thing. Both sides need to sit down, take a good look in the mirror and decide whether they want to converse like adults or keep bickering like children. As it stands now, both sides are entrenched in the bickering and neither can stand up, admit their wrongs and actually get to work without being seen as "weak" by the media and the people will listen and whichever party decides to be the bigger man will suffer for being honest.

Thank you American Media!

They have a right to say whatever they like but attacking me still would not change the poor job that most of our elected dummies (I stole that one from our good buddy intimidator2007) from both sides have been doing. The political game can be very frustrating at times. Yes I like president obama and a few other politicians but besides them I feel that my vote is only to pick the lesser of two evils than to put someone in office who will actually make things better. I also believe that some conservative republicans couldn't care less about putting the best man in office but are hell bent on not seing someone of a particular color, religion, etc getting elected and will vote for a total screw up over someone who is well qualified.

This is the king of post that irritates me the most.... Why are you voting for Obama? Is it his policy? What has he done that you like... And not the cookie cutter answer of the repubs have blocked everything he wanted to get done... What has he said he was going to do when he was running for office and has done since he took control that you agree with... Now why do you agree with it? You also mention repubs voting based on color and many other things but would you not agree a lot of the black vote voted for Obama because he was black? I would venture to guess there were just as many black people that voted Obama because he was black as there were votes against Obama because he was black. Also most of the states that would vote against him because of race were probably going republican anyways regardless of the anti-black vote.

They offered newt, santorum, cain and bachman who were extreme right wingers but then turned around and said look we are going to offer the people romney who is a "moderate" republican. Romney was then exposed as typicial for the rich republican and the people were not fooled. My question is why can't the republicans come up with a true moderate who is indeed for the people? Is that too much to ask for?

Whats wrong with having a rich white republican in office? Obama is doing well for himself.... Bush wasnt poor, Clinton wasnt broke... To be completely honest I would rather have someone in office who knew how a business ran and was successful at it than a career politician who has never hired anyone... It amazes me how wealth used to be a sign of success and now it is demonized.

Agree 100%, I've been just reading and not posting lately, but it always seems this is how a thread starts: "I wonder where our small minded conservative friends are and what they think about this?" or it's "Where are all the delusional liberals at and why aren't they defending this?"

Granted in my (unbias) opinion, it seems like anyone on the conservative side gets called out in threads more, but it does happen both ways.

However, when this always happens, why would anyone be surprised at all the back and forth lately?

exactly, just about every member on the political boards who has posts spouting off against left or right wing, liberal or conservative, etc. is the problem. They complain about the other side but ignore the same thing when its done by those who's views they agree with or are on the same side as
