the new health care?

Granted, the other side doesn't consider statists to be objective in matters dear to them.

Or... instead of playing into the adversarial game which leads only to more fingerpointing and no real dialogue, you could try to rise above it and actually seek real solutions and find common ground with the non-idiots.

Perhaps, just perhaps, we don't need you to tell us what is idiotic but would prefer it if you tried to find intelligent solutions that would much be much more effective in highlighting the idiocy of idiots.

You are 100% right. I need to improve in this regard.

I think I do a good job in this regard most of the time but sometimes you just have to let an idiot know he is an idiot.

Now I have to say, I can't disagree with this!

I once wasted plenty of time in a thread chopping someone down for their absurd "foolproof" roulette system. Can't say I wouldn't do it again, either. Sometimes jacking someone up for being retarded is irresistable.

I would, however, do it more succinctly in the future. Because looking back, I wasted way too much of my time on that absurd discussion.

It was a very memorable thread though

I seem to remember it was one of those that meandered through about 18 subjects and ended up back where it began.
