It is a simple question. Yes or no? Which question am I not answering? I can't find it in your ramblings and personal attacks, but again I am not as intelligent as you so I guess I am just too stupid to understand the question.
She treats every thread as a contest where there is a winner and a loser and of course she always thinks she wins. I think it is amusing that she labels anyone who disagrees with her takes as a radical right winger, racist, jackass, etc.

I am not sure why she can't back up her points, actually discuss the topic but I'm pretty sure it is because as she has shown quite often especially in the economic discussions she allows her bias (pro-Obama, anti-GOP) to overcome any understanding of the topic at hand.

There are lots of occasions where I dont agree with the GOP position. I don't particularly like any of the potential GOP Presidential candidates. I dont like the immigration policy of the GOP. I think they go too far at the current time in cutting Gov't spending, would rather they gained power and then worried about making it a focal point (I understand they are playing politics even though cutting the deficit is a good thing). I am not thrilled that religion is as prominent as it is though again most are just playing to their audience. I am not in favor with some of the social positions that the GOP takes. If gays want to get married then as American citizens we should let them. I believe that the entitlement programs have a place but need serious reform as so much of the money is just wasted by bureaucracy . The GOP ate its fair share of pork over the years which I never agreed with when it became excessive. Do my politics lean right? Sure but that doesn't mean I'm blinded by hatred of the left. Didn't Riot recently post somewhere that she would never vote for a GOP candidate again? I would find it hard to label myself a racist. I surely could be called a jackass but not for any of the reasons that would be given here.

You poor people, trying to "explain" your politics and thoughts and "what you believe".

What are you, sobbing "liberals"?

Like it matters here in Politics. Isn't it clear that only prejudice and assumption and labels and pedantic angry political ignorance matter here?

Geesh, you righties need to get with your own program. You dish it out, but you sure can't take it.

Change the subject much? Yeah, you righties dish it out, but freak when people treat you exactly as you treat them: with all the nasty language, prejudice, personal attacks to distract from arguments you can't win, and narrow, superficial political views. I dare you to start a thread about a political subject, and not denigrate into making snide comments about other posters who disagree with your views. I'll bet you can't do it.

By saying "you righties" are you admitting you are a lefty?

Your crocodile tears act is sad.
