True, because there's no need for a thread with information we already have.

Nationalization of Banks, the Auto Industry, and Health Care.
So the banks, auto industry and health care have been nationalized? Oh wait. No they haven't. Just more inaccurate drivel from the right. Drivel on my good man.

Im not,and was never in to politics. But, I have always wondered how someone, would classify themselves to any group. I could never see myself saying I'm a dem, or rep, or lib, or con.... just seems weird when I share some of the same principles as all of them.
So how did you guys decide which side to take, If thats in fact what you did?

The only reason people can afford to not be into politics is because they grew up in a system with a well functioning, non-predatory government and an economic system that tamped down the worst impulses of corporate greedhead behavior. That of course is changing, and the pace of change is akin to a glacier. Mostly imperceptible but constant, but with occasional surges.
People choose to affiliate with one group or another because of their family, friends, and community where they grew up. Such things color your perceptions, so that one person can see a particular governmental action and say "that's nationalization" and a different person sees the exact same thing and says "that's a corporate bailout for rich people."
My brother plays bridge with a Navy pilot who delivered the mail to the carrier on which he was based. Over 200 landings on a carrier, that guy has nerves of steel, I'll tell you what!

John McCain must be a good pilot then. Has nothing to do with politics in my opinion...

I was sitting next to a Navy Pilot at the bar a few days ago, he says McCain must have been a piss-poor pilot.

McCain is a commie! Not only did he live in North Vietnam during the war, he was living high on the hog at the Hilton in Hanoi while our boys were fighting it out in the rice paddies.
