NBC news... considering the source I didn't even read it... find a reputable 'NEWS' source instead of a political tool next time you post... ------------------------- |

Reputable news source? Like what? Breitbart?

Classic; I knew just posting the link would prove the article's point, and it has. Very much so. Hahahaha! BTW, it's a neutral article. ------------------------- A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. |

We have been polarized since day one of our country. Indeed, we were purposely set up to be that way. Free speech will do that. Dumb, pointless article. My guess is that the progs put out this type of trash journalism in an effort to distract from the real issues, such as the PiC's towering incompetence. ------------------------- I :heart; Q |

Use your best Google-fu and look up what Bob Dole has said about this the past couple of years. I think he has some really good insight.

Back in the day we could work together. And there were liberal Republicans and conservative Democrats.
And when there was a national emergency like war, or disease, or an attack we didn't politicize it. ------------------------- “It is the heart of US policy to use fascism to preserve capitalism while claiming to be saving democracy from communism “ - Michael Parenti |

I found the article to be fairly accurate, and have said the same thing here many times. Our current two party system will be the ruin this Republic if it hasn't been already. This is becasue each party is solely interested in the ultimate control of the nation and its people. Neither has any concern with governing or service to the nation. We the people are forced to choose and support what we each feel is the lesser of two evils, and each one of us has become no more than their voting pawn. In reality we are forging the divide that separates us and empowering the parties to continue the practice. I believe all of us want the same things, and that's social equality, financial responsibility, economic sustainability and personal liberty. And if you've been paying any attention, other than to thier propoganda, each of these attributes are being eroded by way of this polarization. Think about that. One way or another, a revolution is in the wind. |

Didn't read it. Then why are those same progressives voting for their party if they believe this? I'm voting Libertarian where available. Some spots are being left blank. |
