Do you even know what Ad Hominem means? It's our right in this forum to generalize and attack ideals and political parties we don't support or agree with. Which is what we've done. That's what we're here for. At what point have any of us engaged in personal attacks that weren't in response to your supposedly satirical post?

Please quote them.

While Ad Hominem attacks have only been used against a political party, that doesn't change my point that this is not a completely serious discussion. Either way, I don't see how a clearly satirical comment detracts from the debate . . .

Way to dodge the issue and justify your obvious breach of conduct.

Shame i vote my mind, and not some political party line..
Otherwise i might have an opinion on which politician is the more screwed up.. As to me, they all are screwed up anymore.

But i must say that billy and wicked should join forces and actually run for office to complete the goals they both have in common!

Billy and I very rarely agree on politics. Very rarely. So that wouldn't happen.

Clear bias? You clearly were being ridiculous. You clearly use the words “Ad Hominem” too much. And you clearly need to go away.

Is anyone else vaguely afraid that Nancy Pelosi is now head bitch in the House?
He did end up winning. Which apparently tipped the scales in favour of democrats in the Senate for the first time in 12 years. This should be interesting.

Its fucking hilarious, all this government bullshit going on right now. The republicans are either digging holes to cower in or sitting back smugly with a grin and saying "ok, you fuckers do better". The libs are dancing in the street and singing about changing the world.

Everyone is ignoring the simple fact that, democratic or reublican, government is government, and very little is going to change, very little is going to get done, and it really doesnt matter who we elect because all of those rotten snakes look out for themselves first and the American people second.

Took the words right off of my fingers. People go back and forth over their favorite party while no action is taken on a meaningful scale to better our situation. Even I'm guilty of this; due to the fact that I disagree with the ideaology of the Iraq war, which has polarized everyone for and against it along party lines.
