Ban, have you or any other "Righty" you know ever been swayed by an "adult political discourse"?
Sure, if they convince me that what they indicate is "truth" and I am wrong. I just had an "adult political discourse" with Ima. He didn't chastise me or call me a name or insult me; nor I him. He didn't convince me that he was right and I didn't convince him that I was right or him wrong. Why be swayed if you don't believe there is evidence to convince you to be swayed?

Has truth and logic ever changed your mind to the "leftist" side?
You're apparently responding to my Post #5, Question" What in that post is not true? By your response you certainly don't seem to have changed your mind on anything.

Dealing with the average Republican is like having a discussion with a mule. You have to hit it between the eyes with a 2x4 before it'll even listen.
See! You can't get thru a post without an insult (not that I give a rats a$$ about your insults). That's your idea (and much of any of the left wingers.... or Canadians on this forum... of "adult political discourse."

It's been bad since the start of the Obama Presidency, as Sea Dog just pointed out, but it's much worse under Trump - to the best of my knowledge, he has never changed his mind on any major item no matter how badly it's turned out unless he was forced to by protests. And his sycophants around the country are just as bad or worse - they seem to think that his election gave them licence to claim the Right has all the answers, and can do anything...
You won't acknowledge that "the real bad" started with the Democrats and MSM before Trump took office. Sure, Obama was criticized because many didn't agree with his liberal policies, but the MSM never did. That's the big difference. The MSM has come to preach "HATE TRUMP" every day; and on TV news, from dawn to dusk. Morning Joe and CNN are doing it right now as I watch. They aren't talking about world affaris at all. It's hate Trump. Obama never got that, or anything even close to what they are doing to Trump... and family. Then, there is what I posted in Post #5. FRUSTRATION? Frustration over losing. Hillary lost. That's when the "real bad stuff" started. The left can't stand to lose. Tantrums.

It shouldn't be that way, but it is, and there doesn't seem to be any way to change it, especially under the present administration. And your own post on the Trump thread proves my point.
So, comment on my Post #5, what did I write that wasn't "truth?"


The shouting and threats are bad, but they come from sheer frustration. "Adult political discourse" is just the Republicans' way of saying "talk all you want, we're going to do it our way anyway".
:teeth:"Talk all you want!" There is nothing brief about anything you have ever had to say; and, you are what you are accusing right wingers of being.

Looks like the foreigner, Brewster, is upset because we don't believe his left-wing blog crap. Seems like the buttinskis from Canada would be better served if they stayed at home and minded their own business.
