Whoa...

I do not leech off of the government. I'm not sure where that came from. Why would you think that?

You assume plenty and know little about it.

Have you never been embarrassed by this country, about anything, ever?

Careful, some in here like to mash triangle.

If I'm "on the left" and I don't attack anyone and don't put people in "little groups", then by your definition I get put into a group by you even though I don't fit in it.

No, I really didn't because I said I have seen a lot of this behavior from the left, I didn't say everyone on the left. That's not the same thing so no I did not attack a group of people I said some.

My apologies. I thought I remembered when you were talking about mojitos on the beach you said you didn’t work and were receiving unemployment or something. I appear to be mistaken and for that I apologize.

The right is all about the person and equality based on the person not the group you belong too.

Why is your point of view is so based in fear. Fear of things that are not even real. Do these things line up out your door everyday and make you scared?

Are not christians taught to give things all to God and God's will then why are you afraid ? You really do not think the the Democrats and ultra liberals have no morals?? That to help another group up means to push down other people. Do you have no faith that the other side prays too?

Listen to your post. its all based in fear.

Stop drinking the Cheery Kool Aid and start believing in people who actually care about people. Have Compassion in your Politcal passion for other people who do not see your view. As any of us who have compassion for you.

Apology accepted.

For the record, I do not work. I was severely injured in a car accident years back. My husband (then my fiance) is an attorney (though he works as a teacher now) and he sued the crap out of pretty much everyone...the driver, the bar that over served him, GMC, the ambulance company, and the city. It is because of his efforts that I received settlements which will provide a middle class lifestyle for me for the rest of my life.

I am not a leech.

Mojitos was mostly a metaphor, though I do spend time on the beach often. I go to a small, secluded area on a Key near here where I can be alone. Usually if I'm drinking, it's a pina colada though haha.

To whoever rambled about triangles, thats not me. I have my limits, but nobody here has ever pushed me that far.

No, I didn't. Does everyone start with that response in this thread?

-You missed my point

If someone disagrees with your point it doesn't mean they didn't understand it.

You don't think we've been divided for some time? The last time I saw this country truly united was the anger over 9/11.

This country has been left/right with people stuck in the middle well before Trump.

What absolute drivel. Pointing out a problem as I see has nothing to do with fear but yeah, I have seen this tactic many times before in arguments. It bores me. I am not scared of this, more surprised by the hypocrisy of it all.

Personally as a Christian it is not up to me to judge your morals, that is between you and God but you don't know me and presumed to judge that I was in fear of something based on how I view things that are happening in this country. A laughable assessment to be sure.

And wtf is Cheery Kool anyway but it does sound delicious.

He realized that he had a secret memo that showed Trump is right and is going to win all the court challenges and the election.

GMC sold a defective airbag. The ambulance company hired a paramedic that failed to treat my burns properly, according to the contract they signed with the city, and the city failed to uphold standards that they themselves set in regards to accident response, specifically in regards to the ambulance company. None of those caused the accident, but all of those limited mitigating factors that would have lessened my injuries.

I'd like to move on now.

If people want to hold douchebag behavior against members of our government, so be it. It's their right.

Personally, I think it's petty and vindictive and I want no part of it. But I understand their point of view and respect their right to it.

Your last paragraph is interesting. Petty and vindictive, yet you understand it and respect it.
I neither understand it, and definitely don't respect it.

Sounds a lot like the Hollywood Blacklist.
