(22,541 posts)Too damn much smoke in these parts right now though. I'll wait for the fires to be put out and march for more firefighters and for health insurance for the federal ones. And for Obama's reelection since ole Mitt seems to think firefighters are unnecessary.

(3,751 posts)That about sums up the false dichotomy that is US politics in a nutshell. Pre-programmed stances, replete with key phrases designed to keep the 'battles' , 'weapons' and outcomes between the acceptable boundaries.

Your Right-Wing Enemies!
How to Win a Fight With a Conservative is the ultimate survival guide to arguing politics, filled with all the cunning strategies, damning facts, and merciless ridicule liberals need to lay the smackdown on right-wing blowhards everywhere.
--------------------------
The argument that the two parties should represent opposed ideals and policies, one, perhaps, of the Right and the other of the Left, is a foolish idea acceptable only to the doctrinaire and academic thinkers. Instead, the two parties should be almost identical, so that the American people can "throw the rascals out" at any election without leading to any profound or extreme shifts in policy.
