Hmm...
What's this thread about?
Q. Is political conversation any more intelligent on GFY than anywhere else?
A. No.
Q. Is there is any greater evidence in American society TODAY that we can objectively consider governmental policies, actions and legislation beyond its immediate impact to OURSELVES?
A. No.
Q. Do intelligence, rationality and logic disappear from a debate whenever the emotional stakes are sufficiently high for one or more of the participants.
A. Yes.
People, there's a reason for the aphorism "Never talk politics or religion with strangers." I would amend that to "Never talk politics or religion with people whom you can't (for reasons of distance or remoteness) fuck or kill.
