Break it up, kids, this is going no where, and the only one of you who actually has anything to say, is getting dragged down to the level of the other. When my kids were little and they'd set up one of these chants (they've learned, mommy HATES chanting - repetitive, ongoing noise of any kind - , makes me crazy!!) I would say words to this effect: "Enough! Can't you see that this is not a conversation - it's not going anywhere. The point isn't to come to any understanding, it's not to converse, but to convert - And neither party in this Convert-sation is EVER going to accede defeat; it just becomes monotonous and boring. Time to move on, or change tactics." Jaques Ellul said that Politics (in our time) is the realm of the demonic, and I agree with him. People are just people - Obama inherited crap from Bush, who inherited crap from Clinton, and back and back in time we go. Each one did some good stuff, each one added some crap of their own. Obama's just a guy. The left idolize him, the right demonize him, neither is the truth. But you go right ahead and "Tow that party line", regardless of the flotsam and jetsum that has become attached to it. I am a seeker of the Truth. I will listen for Truth, no matter who's mouth it comes out of, and I will disregard politics completely.
