  • Reason

Agree wholeheartedly. The same is true for the person that posted below you as well.

Oh, that's not emotion, that's just madness. He's been inflicted with hate, he has become what he fears. Misery loves company, and he's obviously a lonely man.
 
Attempts at being honest while being true to one's emotions creates the most hilarious posts this side of Mars.

That's why I read so many posts in here where the posters are very angry but they don't know why. 😀


edit - Including me........i think.

I'm not sure I'd call what happens here emotion vs. reason, but rather ego vs. reason.

I think that the sentiments that guide people's actions in political discussions are essentially the same as those that guide people's actions in football games. You hate the other team and love yours. You will denigrate the other team no matter what, and support yours no matter what.

Only very extreme circumstances, such as if our side committed genocide, would shake our faith sufficiently to condemn our own team.

That's why people excuse their team for being racist, yet condemn the other for the same action. It's not hypocrisy, it's ego.

Makes sense to me.:thumbsup: However, I'd like to add in a healthy heaping helping of MSNBC and FOX to the recipe to add some "BAM!" to it.
 
^^ Idiocy. Now, prove your point, you can't, you can just post idiocy.

Why do I need to prove it? You do a damn good job showing your leanings all on your own, but as I have previously mentioned, you are so blinded by your hate and anger, you don't see it.
 
You say wrong - and idiotic - things you can't back up. Nice of you to confess it.

LOL silly, silly Craig. All one has to do is search for "save234" to see you are nothing but a walking, talking, ideological propaganda machine. There is plenty of idiocy here in the sea of stupidity known as ATPN, your portion is about the size of Lake Erie.
