This, That, and the Other 
As was stated in “Cool Hand Luke”, we have a failure of communication here. I think you summed it up very well.

I notice that Republicans don’t mention the commies any more, reds under the beds. Maybe because they are in bed with them?

I feel like “miscommunication” misses the point that much of this is intentional “spinning” to create a wedge between us. If you pole people on pure issues without spin we agree on a lot of the same things. I believe both dems and republicans do the spinning, but republicans seem to be more effective at it (with their audience).

Couldn’t have summed it up better. I don’t see how the rift will ever close. It’s like that movie, Pacific Rim, and the kaiju are those extremist Republican interpretations of where Dems stand. They keep rising from the rift. I just hope divine intervention comes soon.

As I said, we are not going to solve any of those problems. We aren’t even looking for solutions. We don’t want solutions. We want TO WIN. Even if by winning we destroy our world. It’s depressing.
