Why are liberals and Conservatives always fighting? And bashing, etc?
The politicians today remind me of a couple pokemon games I have, such as sapphire version and ruby version. In case you don't know, there's these two teams team aqua, and team magma. Team magma wants to expand the land so there's more places to live, but it drys the land out. The other team (team aqua) wants to create less land so there's more water Pokemon. The bad part to that is that it will flood the earth. I think there the same thing as democrats and republicans. And they're always fighting and they hate each other basically. Does this remind you of the political stuff today?

Liberals and conservatives fight because they have different ideas about what is best for our country. After 235 years of democracy, liberals and conservatives have learned to get very good at bashing each other in order to get American voters support themselves.
Today, this partisan bickering has become very bad. People throw around lies while accusing the other side of lying. It doesn't help that an entire drive-by media industry has blossomed from partisan sniping.

You know, Joey, I think you may grasp the situation solidly. These people are too busy fighting amongst themselves when they should be using the time they have left to solving problems that seriously need looked after and nobody wants to do it let alone take responsibility for it. But apparently the day is coming that they will have to and there will not be that much time left to accomplish the task if any. Joey, what it apparently boils down to is this. Two kids fighting over the money in a piggy bank. Who gets to break the little piggy open and take all the pretty coins. MONEY! Best Wishes to you Joey. - GDH
P.S. Maybe all this is just some diversion. Maybe we should be looking/trying to find out what is really going on while the masses are watching the in-fighting.

Okay, what a horrible idea to use Pokemon as an analogy, but i do agree with you about the Liberals and Conservatives always fighting. The real thing is though, they fight for what they think is right rather then what is actually right. Political Parties destroy and split nations. Both sides have to stop and sometimes acknowledge the other side of the story. Listening to one side of the story all the time will just bring you no where.

I recognize the way you consider approximately no longer being one or the opposite. At the identical time, regardless that, I establish myself as neither liberal or conservative. I do not keep in mind myself any precise faith and even christian for that subject on the grounds that of the stigma connected to announcing "I am a christian" it kind of feels to place plenty of folks off and makes for a difficult first affect, in view that a few christians attempt to push their ideals on others in an opposed method. So I name myself an Independent that takes the Constitution severely and above that an American. As a long way as what I name myself religiously, I am a believer.

People buy into the marketing that is produced by the two parties. Once they pick a team, they start to despise the other team. It's top notch marketing, but it's still surprising how many people fall for it.

how old are you. If you are a young child we should all be embarrassed at how easily you grasp what most of us don't. Sometime it is almost laughable at the accusation like they are trying to destroy the country. No body with any sense thinks either side wants to destroy the country.
key word phrase is "nobody with any sense"
