US Politcs. Can we stop HATING the oposition?

Question

Why can't we simply disagree with the other side of the fence. Operatives and surrogates from both sides have cultivated a culture of HATE THE OPPOSITION. We are smart enough to know that a good idea (or a bad idea for that matter) can come from either side. Why do we insist on being childish in our belittlement of the opposition. It is party before country. We must stop this for the good of everyone. If you fought with a sibling like we fight with the other party, you mother would slap us both and tell us to grow up.

Sooooooooo.

(SLAP) GROW UP!!!!

Answer 1

I do simply disagree with the other side but so far the top dog on the other side seems to hate whites, that does not cause me to hate him but I strongly disagree with most of his policies, especially on abortion.

I really don't see how one can say that they are for the little people and wants to help the poor and has not contributed anything to his brother in

Nigeria that is living on less that $1 (one dollar) per month, certainly a man that made over $4 million last year can spare $10 a month to help his own family. If he treats his brother like that, how will he treat the poor here in the US.

Answer 2

My main problem,is that the Opposition plans on utterly destroying the Country I live in,so why wouldn't I hate them? If someone was coming in and telling you they plan on taking everything you worked for and giving it to someone else,would you like them? So I don't deny it,I do hate them.I hate 90% of what they stand for,I consider them UnAmerican,I think their actions border on being Treasonous.I'm supposed to be nice in the face of that?

Answer 3

Sorry, but when democrats were taken over by hard line socialists that is the only way it can be. Just look anywhere on earth where they have sprouted and it is the same, except for where they manage to silence all opposition. You don't even have to include National Socialists if you want to pad your results. It is still the same.  

Answer 4

Nope...at least not the vicious, lying, bigoted opposition (read: right wing republicans).

My political enemies suck and should be destroyed...otherwise, I would not refer to them as my enemies. Obama can blow me with his moves "toward the center" and his "bipartisanry."

Answer 5

I will never get along with liberals who think murdering babies is acceptable.

Choice my buttocks!

Answer 6

I appreciate your point.  I don't "hate" the opposition; I really don't.  And I certainly do not put party before country.  I simply believe that my party of choice holds better, more beneficial ideals for my country.  I try not to make it or take it personally.  If the "opposition" chooses to, however (Moooooom!  She's looking at me!), there's not a whole lot I can do about that.
