I've been a little hesitant to jump into the pool, but seeing as it's come up I'll say a few words.
The current Liberal Vs. Conservative, Left Vs. Right crap that's going on is just decisiveness, either "side" is made up of people with various beliefs and were the "liberals" to go away it wouldn't be 10 minutes before the " Conservatives" were divided into several factions. I think it more important to stand for ideals and be consistent. Is it reasonable that the Republican party objected to virtually everything Obama tried to do no matter how much sense it made or whether it was good for the country; it was objected to at face value. OK, fine, but now they want support from across the aisle and are somehow surprised that they don't get it. Really? Politics is about compromise, finding a middle ground. Inflexibility is met with inflexibility. Really, doesn't matter which "side" your on as long as you use the same gauge, the same yardstick. The same people who derided Clinton for adultry don't seem to have the same conviction when it comes to Trump. The same people who criticized Obama for writing executive orders when he didn't enjoy a party majority; are noticeably silent when Trump writes MORE executive orders even though he enjoyed having a majority in both houses until recently. The "Tea party" cried about the deficit, but when the GOP voted to increase the deficit under this president did they say anything? Crickets! Grant is Rivendell and by his own admission he is reluctant to say anything about politics, but he is a product of his generation and whether I agree with him or not. (Generally, I do) how can a resonable person, a humanitarian stand by & say nothing? All I am trying to say is if you are for something or against something fine, just make sure you don't compromise your integrity. I think America really needs another couple viable parties. Then everyone would be forced to compromise, forge alliances and work together and maybe deviciveness would be reduced. I vote for the Common Sense Party, because it would bring something we don't have now. Sorry, but I got that out. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
