It's all my fault

Well now damn it, as my Dad used to say: "Don't do as I do...do as I say!"

Anyway...when it gets one on one personal, calm it down a bit, and note my strong suggestions in the sticky for political discourse.

...and STFU.

Jamo,
I take a lot more than I dish out - if I responded in kind or reported posts like this misquote, to every negative comment I received you would be a lot busier, or I would be banned. I will do my best to treat people the same way I am treated. Perhaps you should consider enforcing the rules with others who push the limit/break them a lot more often than I do.

Steve,

After having spent several hours this past weekend on Obama's site and McCain's site reading what I felt were the important stances they had posted, then going to several different news media sites and reading about the same stances, it is amazing at how much the news media can distort things and still pass it off as true. I don't agree with all of what either of them say, but they both do have some good points if you can get past the crap hiding them. It would be nice if everyone could forget party lines and take the best of what both suggest, and make one good package out of it, and even then I am not sure that could get us out of the mess we are in. No one person can do that. I believe it has to start with Congress and getting rid of the old group and putting new people in that are more in tune with today's world and what is going on, rather than the If It Didn't come From Our Group we won't pass it old guard. Some of the cartoon pictures, both on this site and in the newspapers are starting to get a little on the borderline I feel. Our local paper has had several letters to the Editor about cartoons they have published, both about Obama and McCain.

Ron,
I certainly agree with you about it being time to switch out Congress. I'm not keen on the idea of term limits, but I also do not like the idea of 'professional' politicians. And both the DNC and the GOP have their share of stupidity and corruption. It would be nice to take the best of both - but because we all have different income levels, different religions, and so on then what is right for some will not always be right for others.
