Rush is the showman....not I. I speak pretty clearly about what I think...I'm just not as verbose as some. GR: are you starting to feel bad about being a democrat? If so, thru careful indoctrination, I can pull you out of that "funk" you've be in. The offer's always there...Hurry now...you'll lose your place in the parade!

Timm, I find you endearing, not exasperating. Don't worry. I just find it funny that I said you automatically disregard something said by a Democrat purely based on their party affiliation and in your attempt to deny that, you threw out assorted cheap shots that just affirmed what I said. Which is why I told you to stop digging.

I'm always amused when people who will grossly generalize an entire group of people accuse the group they like to insult of doing the same thing. On some level, I think they know it's wrong to do, and so try to convince themselves that the other side is doing the same thing. I invite you to go through my posts and find any instance where I have ever made a gross generalization about all Republicans (other than them being much better at sticking together than the Dems, which isn't exactly an insult). I tend to attack individuals and their positions, not the whole GOP, which is more than I can say for most of your arguments. Likely, I assume, because you don't read the news that much, so you don't really have a clear idea of who is saying what in the Dem party.

So, Timm, what exactly do you think is the liberal mind? Rather than throwing insults, why don't you post what you believe a liberal thinks? Go ahead. We're all friends here (really, too- this is just political debating and I don't take it personally). What do you think liberals think?
