Quote:It seems the battle of right and left covers up lots of issues and prevents anything actually ever been done to improve them.

 

There was a thread about abortion where JJ and I actually compromised on a cut off point for legal abortions... I believe we settled on 13 weeks or something...  

 

It's prove positive that your right.  The media, and the elites that have embedded themselves within the Democratic and Republican parties try to make this a blue v. red fight in which actually policies are never debated.

 

It's sad.  I'll give this for the trumpettes -  at least the ones on this board - they are willing to actually discuss topics.  It seems the GOP type conservatives are more into fighting the same tired red v. blue arguement that really get's us nowhere.  To be fair I get sucked into it at times too.  It's hard not to.  But I think libertarians, progressives, and trumpettes have alot of common ground that we could agree on if we stopped bickering all the time.
