I am not quite sure who you consider the enemy ? but I hope you dont mean Dems vs Rep , we may differ on political opinions but they are NOT my enemy...my enemies are countries out to destroy us..or my ex

Political enemies exist, like it or not. We call it gridlock. We call it politics as usual. What's your problem for naming it? You think it isn't a battle? It is a game of war with it's own set of rules. There are winners, and losers. Some play for keeps, others play for fun and loose. You gonna try and say the Right hasn't declared Obama an enemy? How about Clinton a decade ago? Sorry, it's time for the moderates of this country to wake up to the fact that they have enemies, and those enemies are stomping their values into the mud every day.

I can't think of a time when obama, Reid or Pelosi reached across the aisle unless it was to shove something up someone's arse or to line their pockets.

"President Obama threw out his shoulder on Sunday at the 19th Street Baptist Church while reaching across the aisle to shake hands with Senate Republican Olympia Snowe, who was also in attendance. Just one day after Congress passed the $787 billion stimulus package, the ill-fated gesture was intended to be an act of post-partisan solidarity."

A friend of mine was out training the other day. The conversation veered into politics. One of the participants stated that anyone who supported Obama was his mortal enemy, and that it may be necessary to take up arms to put a stop to them. Another otherwise intelligent and educated woman is convinced that Obama is the anti-Christ, and that right thinking Americans had better be stocking up on arms and ammo to protect themselves. And yes, these two people are dedicated viewers of Glenn Beck.

Is the term "intelligent and educated Glenn Beck viewer" an oxymoron?

Both. In the eyes of extremists, anyone in the middle is guilty of being a muddy thinker, a member of the "sheeple", and possibly even a "fellow traveler" deserving no respect. Fortunately for all of us, a two party system puts moderates in the driver's seat, able to determine the outcome of any election. Unfortunately, it also makes liars of politicians who say one thing to their base to get nominated and something completely different to get elected.

So which is it??????

The party of "stay the course", 1,000 points of light.........
The party of "Mission accomplished"
The party of "NO, NO, NO"

The people said they wanted change on specific issues in the last election, the Repubs seem hell bent on twisting everything because November is all they are concerned with...................

Now we have the party of "The war is lost", "Our soldiers are killing women and children in the dead of night", Barney Fwank and Chris Dodd (2 of the main reasons for the mortgage problems, "Cold Cash" William Jefferson, Chicago thugs and the ever popular "Yes we can" zombie chant. Some hope and change.

I've always been confused by the declaration that repubs are the party of no. If the repubs were in charge and putting all kinds of things you completely disagree with in place would you hope that your congressman would just vote with the majority because you obviously wouldn't want to be the party of no right? Or would you want someone to stand up for what they believe and vote accordingly.

You mean like those Senators and Congressmen voting for health care reform?

Legislation is written through compromise, often between people who agree on the specific wording for completely different reasons.
