Most of the political shows are either hosted by right-wingers like Limbaugh, Hannity, or O'Reilly, or by people who rarely show a preference. Why? Because Democrats aren't mudslingers like Republicans are.

Talk show hosts do not represent the views of the public.

You'd have more credibility if you explained why he's wrong.

Anyone can just call people stupid. That's how children argue.

He has no credibility whatsoever. I study American politics as my major in school and he's trying to lecture all of us on American politics, where he has strong opinions and little else. He has yet to provide anything of substance.

They don't have to be mudslingers, but they could stand up for their beliefs in a more meaningful way.

And thanks to the new and wonderful area of election law, we are required to study politics as part of our education.

I watch political commentary all the time. I see people on the left defending themselves admirably, but then they get shouted down by the right-wing media whores.

Then they need to learn how to "shout" louder.

So your solution is that mild-mannered, decent people should debase themselves to the level of their opponents for a cheap victory? Fantastic 😬

pointless rhetoric devoid of any practicality FTW

It's a prequesite if you want to act "Holier then thou".

Don't call someone non-credible if you can't establish your own credibility.

No, that when the republicans try to be cheap and sling mud at them. They stand up and shout "NO!", That they say "No we are not antiwar or anti-religion or tax loving radicals. We simply believe in things like affordable health care and that everyone in America deserves a right to live and not suffer, not just the rich. And that we need to start fixing the problems in our house before we go out into the world and try to tell everyone else how to live like we do. That we need to support medical research whether or not the religious groups give it their blessing or not. In fact we need far less religion and far more practical thought put into how the US is run." They need to stand up and stop looking for ways to work WITH the republicans and start looking for ways to stop them.

So as a substitute for debating skills and valid counter points, you just act sarcastic?

The fact that they are scared to call the republicans on their failures in any meaningful way or challenge their polices or take steps to halt their actions.

Have you seen anything going on in Washington the past 4 months?

Yes, I've seen the democrats puff up their chest to look tough, the republicans standing up and the democrats running away scared saying "Please don't hurt me."
