Hey Democrats and Republican, can't we all just get along?

Conflict is essential to growth of the society. History has proved that. So it is necessary that difference of opinion are expressed and they clash with each other. \n\n"Let a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend" - Chairman Mao Tse Tung

It'll work just fine.  Do you think they are the first pair of politicians who had to work together who couldn't stand each other?  Par for the course.  Yawn.

We all know that will never happen, sadly, both parties forgot the term compromise and talking things out, they just like to complain whine and not figure a way to fix the issues, look at the campaign ads as proof to that....

The Republicans in this country are way too extreme (part-time Christians, homophobic, xenophobic, war-loving, and way too out of touch with what people need).\n\nThe Democrats are too spineless and without character.  \n\nIt is too hard to say.  Unless one of the other parties comes up with a honest, problem-solving, hard-working (not vacationing whenever something goes wrong like our current knucklehead), financially responsible, down-to-earth candidate who looks toward the future (focuses on global warming, our ties with other nations, fixing the Social Security issues, eliminating our debt to other countries, and including funding to health causes), then I won't be voting (I have voted in every election since I was 18 and am so disgusted with the choices).

In this day and age, there are problems in either situations. It's sad really. I think we should all try to get along!

And Republicans bashing Democrats was UNITY? It's a two-way street.

In the political spectrum, there is little difference between the two parties. It's more hype to keep the respective bases in line, as you state.

Democrats feel that people should take care of each other, together we can be more the sum of us apart.\nRepublican feel that everyone should take responsibility for themselves

Eh we'll always be bi-partisan.  It would be nice if they would quit backstabbing, but then again that is what keeps our country in check.  One belief/power/party cannot have all the power and have everything their way.

The belief that things can only be one way: Our way is hardly unique to Republicans, it's a staple of modern American Political discourse in all parties.  Generally the more a party claims to be tolerant of other ideas, the less tolerant it actually is.  The concept of Compromise is completely alien to Congress these days.

Why is it that Republicans give one line insulting answers and Democrats give thoughtful responses?\n\nCould it be that our president is operating with the same limited mentality?

I'm a long time Democrat and I say, yes the party is getting more liberal than most of the normal members of the party would like. Too many people in the party shooting off their mouths and saying radical messed up negative things on just about every other topic, especially the war, just for their own political agenda, and not for the agenda of the mainstream party members, who are the majority of normal hard working folks like you and I in the party...

There are as many good republicans out there as there are "good democrats". If no democrats are good in your eyes, maybe no republicans are good in a democrat's eyes.\nAnd the democrats aren't always the ones pointing fingers. There could easily be a case for the republicans doing that.\n\nSpeaking of childish, isn't it kind of childish to threaten to move if things don't go just how you wanted them to?

Democrats are the same?  Therefore Republicans and Democrats are both ugly cartels of raving jesus freaks?  And I am a moron?

Hey thanks a lot. Its awfully nice of an enlightened liberal like you to make such a silly generalization. Not all republicans are rich, or white. No more than all democrats ar poor, or black, or gay, or whatever. We are all just people. Once we all recognize that, maybe we can put aside our petty differences, and make a real change for the better.

I ask myself that question a lot. Why can't we just get along? Well the truth is we probably won't be able to get along untill Jesus Christ comes to get us. When that time comes even the lion and the mouse will get along.
