You think Riot is really any different than Del, Joey, RBE etc? She may take things to a bit more of an extreme and can be condescending, but jeepers...the Republicans aren't? You just disagree with her opinions so attack, attack , attack...
I, along with many others (right and left) don't post here much anymore. It used to be fun to have conversations about politics, but....and maybe my head is in the sand...I just don't think you can argue politics with a Conservative. At some point their natural instinct is to just lash out. I have my definite opinons but don't claim to be correct 100% of the time. I think righties do and even if they may have their doubts about an issue, the default is being a Liberal is a small step from being a communist, socialist or even the devil. I have never voted for a repubilican and loathe most of their platform, but still enjoy the debate. I wish that could happen more.

yep, palin is definitely amusing.
but i've always found all of your points above about republicans to be equally true about democrats. i guess that's why myself, and others who don't ascribe to any one party, find the whole debate about who is 'better' to be a hilarious argument.
i don't think either side is better. i think both parties have a few good ideas, and many bad ones. both sides think they're always right. both point fingers when the other has an awful moment. each tries to take the moral high ground, when really, neither can occupy it all the time.
i love when debate occurs. what i hate is when people take it to a personal level.
