Fri Mar 8 14:14:01 PST 2013

Ok but Tom wasn't giving an argument in his post, as I see it. He was responding to Republican arguments.

> I couldn't care less about the inner workings of the local Republican party.  I do sometimes point out problems with conservative arguments.  No one remembers because they don't become huge flame-fests.  I'll maybe get a politely-worded response from Gary or Roger.  For example, when the NRA made their famous "arm everyone at the schools" speech, I posted why I thought that was wrong.  I don't remember getting any responses.  Should I post anything even slightly contrary to the liberal way of thinking, though, and look out.  Not to mention that the majority of posts on here lean liberal.  I don't respond to posts that don't exist, so of course most of my responses will be attacking liberal positions.  I don't usually post "me, too!" posts unless I think people on the list will believe I would think differently on the subject.

He was responsible for our bad economy and for the rise in the deficit. This is one of a handful of graphs and sets of information that show that those criticisms are not legitimate.

In fact, if it is political divide in general that you are against, I wonder why you haven't spoken out against Bouma and other members of the Latah Republican Party for throwing Steed under the bus. There you have political divide and nastiness all within the same group.

I'm not saying there's not one, but without pointing it out you look more like a sports fan instead of a person choosing their politics in a rational manner.  Just my opinion, of course.  We'll never get rid of our two-party system if we treat it like the Superbowl.  Treat it more like NASCAR, where you have lots of different contestants to choose from :)
