In response to:
It's because these opinions are asinine and inflammatory. Note that I wouldn't like a liberal doing the same column about conservatives either. It's stupid. Everyone wants the country to be better. One side or the other isn't 'better'. The country needs both sides' ideas to grow. The us against them mentality has to end.
I could go through point by point and talk about why his opinion is ridiculous, but that'd be a huge waste of time. I can't refute his facts because he didn't include any. It's an opinion piece.
1) America's credit rating would get so low that it would force President Dennis Kucinich to petition the UN for donations to pay for Social Security, Medicare, and his newly implemented 350 weeks of unemployment plan.
2) There wouldn't be a Pledge of Allegiance said in schools, no one would sing the Star Spangled Banner before any sporting event, and no one would celebrate the 4th of July.
3) Gas would cost $9 a gallon. Liberals would consider this a plus because it would cause more people to get tax credits to buy government subsidized $40,000...
Your statement that "One side or the other isn't better" is proven wrong by looking at the results of the policies which is why Liberals in general talk more about the intent of policies instead of the results.
