If I have to side with WonderBoy or MEM just to have a discussion in there, that's fucked up.

Why can't you old bastards calm the fuck down and stop being such petty cunts? Seriously! You're getting your panties twisted over the most immaterial things! Breathe, goddamnit! He's the president and will be for another 3+ years! The USA did NOT explode into chaos and murdering, fetus-raping Hell when he was elected! I wasn't all that happy with Bush, but I still left off the CONSTANT BADGERING. That's what you DO in a community of people with different thoughts and opinions. You respect other people and build a bridge and get over it. He's ONE MAN. There are checks and balances and procedures and bureaucracy and other shit and NO, HE WON'T DO EVERYTHING HE WANTS OR EVEN PROMISED ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL! Really, is this *new* to you? That's what POLITICIANS DO. You are older than I am, surely you've noticed that trend before.

Broken? That's one word for it. I'm just fed up with this bullshit. I sometimes want to just have a discussion about political or social stuff and not have to contend with a horde of assholes jumping on the most inane things. The politics and current events forum is more like a cave for y'all to throw rocks around in. You realize you aren't going to change anyone's mind, right? This is the internet. You are not going to change the world, or the USA, based on circle-jerking in a message-board forum.

I'm just saying, it would be nice if the atmosphere in there wasn't so stifling.


Old men, fear me! You will shatter under my ruthless apathetic assault!
