The groupthink that I've been seeing on the democrat side of the aisle since the conventions has scared me.

It's like democrats are a bunch of zombies just repeating: Trump bad. Hillary good. Trump bad. Hillary good.

And why do I call that groupthink? Because I have YET to see a Hillary supporter condemn the process of how she actually "won" the nomination.

Their silence has condoned the actions of the DNC.

I won't be silent. I won't step in line behind Hillary.

All democrats are doing is parroting the "Trump bad. Hillary good" that the DNC wants them to believe.

Wake up!!

Just take your soma and vote straight democrat or republican.


But I hear you this whole election cycle has been fucking nuts. Trumps crazy stupid ass, Ted Cruz with his bible thumping bullshit and now Hillary with criminal ways. Lest we forget Bernie straight up selling out.

Nearly every Bernie supporter has spoken up where you been looking?
I have to support her because it's either her or a person who I'm sure will fuck us worst.
He incites and ignites xenophobic hatred to proportions I've never seen before.
We have to pick one and I'll vote Hillary before him any day.
Btw the group think you constantly accuse the democrats for is what all groups do. Religious political academic groups with the same ideology usually think the same.
Republicans support the most obvious vile people on earth

In New York, it's Westchester.

Right. Same thing. And here is the info l saw earlier..

The Westchester County Government is headed by County Executive Rob Astorino, a Republican.


The Westchester County Board of Legislators has seventeen members and is led by a majority coalition of two Democrats and seven Republicans. The current board chair is Michael Kaplowitz.

Am l missing something?

Yes, we should celebrate the politicians that actually seem to be working for the majority of their constituents.

But what we shouldn't do is celebrate the political parties they belong to. It has less to do with the parties and more to do with the individuals representing the parties.

The democrats in Illinois are freaking terrible. The majority of them are terrible, corrupt, and self-serving.

We need to STOP idolizing the parties and start idolizing the good politicians. And newsflash, they can be found on BOTH sides of the political spectrum.

God, had that been Trump.
Had that been Bernie.
Most importantly, had that been Hillary..to Obama. Wow. Want to see riots? America would have burned.

Yeah pretty much all Democratic where I live boo. Hilary and Bernie stickers everywhere. Upper NY is more conservative but down here it's very liberal. Granted a lot of phony liberals but everyone votes Democrat for the most part.

She said the people in power there. Not bumper sticker.

No they really can't still waiting to see some good Republicans who vote for the needs of the people. The Republican mindset is literally business over people. Defund social programs and cut taxes on rich people putting more burden on the dwindling middle class.
So sick of this both sides b.s..
I need to see actual proof. Name some names

I'm directing this at you but so fed up with hearing it's both sides when the data clearly says differently.
Democrats aren't closing down schools cutting benefits and arguing for poor people to stop being lazy. The Republican mindset is totally void of compassion.

No, they just WASTE money. How is it any different? One won't spend, the other overspends...with what results? Look at our publuc education system.
Btw, Hillary offering free education (thanks to Bernie pressure).. Who's going to fund Obamacare?.. 1% of the money the Fed's get from School loans helps pays for it.
Plus she's voted for War.. Will she cut Defense spending?

Our public education isn't up to par because we don't spend enough and our system for scaling success sucks too.
Is she offering free or reduced cost education? You might want to check that out and if she is then take that shift from the defense budget it is totally overbloated taking up more than half our tax dollars
And Obamacare can be paid for again reduced military spending and a lot less waste. Why the he'll are we still paying hundreds of dollars for a damn xray. 400 dollars for a check up it's way too expensive but it's not impossible to fix. And like I said Republicans bitch and moan absolutely no solutions.


Btw if you're going to complain about wasted money focus your attention on wealthy corporations getting tax refunds paying absolutely no taxes there's your waste. Waste all you want on the needy being poor shouldn't be punishable by death.
My God why do you people despise the needy so much.

Well apparently Archangel and co. believes there is no such thing as a moderate or centrist with left or right leanings depending on the issues. You must choose a side or it will be chosen for you. Know your place.

Everyone chooses a side. That's what makes them polarized.
I'm not polarized but I am polarized to the left or right depending on the issue...

then you are polarized.

No, because l can see both sides. For example, the abortion debate. Raising the minimum wage. Unions for and against. Affirmative Action pros and cons...
Imagine that. A political ideology that sees both sides. Try it, you might like it.:smt114

are you for abortion or against it?

You can manage to see both sides and still be polar.

Those are two different things.

I was once strongly for it, but now personally against it, but would never stop a woman from it.

see as polarized as I am. I can understand the amount of work it takes to raise a child and why one would not want to go through with it. It is not my place to tell someone what option to pick that will change their life forever but I am personally against abortion.

You start picking these things and you will be on one side even though you understand the opposite side.

That's why I don't see how anyone can be centered or moderate. People will often favor one over the other.

Sophia's choice..... pick one or the other or it will be picked for you.:D

not fun not fair but that is life.
