Maybe you need to stop getting your news from google search and open your eyes just a bit. Heck I could start a news net work on the net and I can't even get a Youtube screens to play here. Its fine for a third or forth source but sitting here posting youtube clips day after day is a pit crazy. I'm sure all those clips you play have not ever been edited to met the persons agenda or they leave off the real meaning of what a person is saying. The liberal media is out in full force these past weeks and will be up until election so we do not need every liberal slanted article posted here. If thats going to be the case then maybe we sould start posting every Rush or Hannity article to make things fair and balanced. You say your so open minded but I have not seen one bit of that form you sense we have been talking politics. Heck you even defended Obama asking for 900 million in pork spending and called it a drop in the bucket.

It's interesting how most of us are willing to change or evolve our opinions on the Redskins based on discussions on this board but we are so stubborn when it comes to politics (please note first that I'm just quoting you but not referring explicitly to you). My guess is that with very few exceptions-I count myself among them, a Republican voting for Obama-there are people here who would vote for a Democrat even if a Donkey was the actual candidate while others would vote for a Republican even if an Elephant was the actual candidate.

As for the YouTube clips, you all know my stance on them. They get a bit annoying but you have to be an idiot to base your opinions entirely on them. Of course, they're parsed down clips and of course they're almost always posted by someone with a bias one way or the other. A McCain clip where he accidentally says "prisoners" instead of "citizens" or an Obama clip where he accidentally says "57 states" means absolutely nothing more than they're human beings who make mistakes. If anyone is actually going to the voting booth thinking "Well I can't vote for Obama because he has no idea how many states are in the USA" well then do us all a favor and don't vote.

In short, and I wish I could find the thread that I think someone started on this, F Political Threads. They have became such a "your guy is worse than my guy" waste.
