Thanks, but the fact is that I'm so PO'd at everyone on both sides in this campaign -- both on GC and about everywhere else -- that I probably am "talking down" in this case.

There is some truth -- and conversely some of the opposite -- in just about everything.

In this campaign it seems to me that everyone is so absoutely positive of his/her own point of view that they discredit anyone who doesn't agree with them.

I'm really sick of the way people are treating and talking to each other.

No matter what the "spin doctors" on either side say, the supporters of that side take it as the absolute truth. Anything the otherside says is an absolute lie.

Aren't we smarter than that?

This is politics. It's is built around what makes your candidate look good and the other look bad. Propaganda techniques abound. The absolute truth is secondary.

Jeez, a lot of you guys point at the media and call it biased. Have you looked in the mirror recently?
