<< I find it entirely amusing that the people on this list are always jumping on each other for having a damn opinion. Where's the respect for others' opinions when those of us who don't agree with the majority (on here) say something? If you want to preach tolerance and acceptance, then you need to fucking practice it too. >> here here. well said Mr. Frickster. people need to calm the f*** down. << Well, a democracy, as you are so quick to point out, allows us to have different points of view... And to IGNORE THE ONES WE DON'T AGREE WITH. >> this is very true. however, i really think that's all ANYONE does anymore. you either watch Fox or CNN. (i prefere MSNBC myself -- what does that make me?) you either listen to Al Fraken or Rush Limbaugh. where is the sense of dialog? all political discussion in this country right now is people shouting at each other. why is that? where is the sense of politeness, of respect for the position of the other person, even if you disagree with them. why don't Americans respect each other anymore? (and, given that, is it any wonder that Europeans don't respect us?) PJK please don't hate me because i can't type..... --- All the cool kids are doing it: HTTP://www.EvilSponge.org
