Are there any politicians capable of answering a "yes" or "no" question in less than 100 words?
Seriously, I'm watching the Republican candidates running for the Republican nomination and when asked to respond "yes" or "no", NONE of them could. As far as I'm concerned, they should withdraw their nomination for presidency now if they are incapable of answering "yes" or "no".
@ juliEmAnia - And a popular answer from Republican's is "I don't recall". :)
Anywhos, my question may have seemed directed at Republicans, I meant it to criticize both Democratic and Republican politicians.
Actually, "I don't recall" what my original reason was for asking this question. :)

Yes, and no. It all depends on the context of the word yes, or no. When taken in the mien of an affirmative then yes I would have to say no, but if the no is to be negative I would lean toward the yes answer when it is not negatively affecting a positive result to an otherwise meaningless discourse brought about by either verbal diarrhea or cranial constipation resulting in a negative feeling when one is trying to be positive about these things.

Do you actually expect a candidate from either party to do that. I saw the dems and the repubs, Right now, I would do better to get the down's kid next door elected than all the bubbleheads running.

No. There is no politican in the world that can do this.
Just like my wife, I ask a simple question like, "did you pay the phone bill?", I get a 15 minute explanation.

I know, it's irritating.
I almost want to not vote for anyone on principle because they can't follow directions.
I agree. Follow the directions, the rules etc.....

May I remind you, a popular answer on the Democratic side is "I don't remember."
