Has politics got out of hand ?
 
:saywhat:

Spider 07-20-2004 07:12 PM

I know I am guilty of going overboard , But Just like the Sandy Berger case , I blasted Berger for what I find a very bad move on his part ............
I truley Believe both Republicans and Democrats march to what they believe is best for this country , and both sides have legitimate issues ........
Mud slinging has always been a part of Politics , but to me there has been boundries broke , Either calling Kerry a p***Y ( mock ) for serving this great country during war , or making fun of Bush ( Spider ) for Air National Guard service ........

I agree 100% with you bro. Unfortunately it's not just here, it's nation wide. Honestly, if the American people busted their ass on solving issues with half as much of the effort that we spend arguing over crap that most of us can't change we'd be better off. Oh well, die you pinko commie hippy scumbag!!!

I voted yes, but this is no "new" thing. Sometime read about the Adams/Jefferson campaign. Actually, just about every campaign up to the present. In Lincoln's time, papers would print that his wife was a lunatic.

But hey, like the jib jab website cartoon says, "This land is sure to vote for me." (and not some right wing whacko nut-job)

When the vice president drops the f-word on the floor of the Senate, it's a pretty good indication that partisan politics are, indeed, out of hand... and civility is right out the window.

Bingo.

People like VP Potty Mouth are setting the tone.

If I was to track this latest bout of poison politics I'd have to trace it back to Lee Atwater and Newt Gingrich.

Don't forget to credit their financiers/propaganda coordinators (Scaife, Murdoch, et al.)

And don't forget which party has sponsored Rush the Junkie (and a million other conservative hate radio nutjobs just like him.)

Selling corporate plutocracy and crony capitalism to the great, uneducated, rural white trash masses and calling it "patriotism."

1988 is still the ugliest campaign I have yet seen....this one has the potential to top it.....I have the feeling it will get 10X as nasty as 1988 was....

Why? Because Kerry has vowed to fight back, unlike Dukakis....who took the high road and appeared weak by doing so.

First off, I never called Kerry a p***Y you p***Y.

Cheney told the idiot to frak off. I found it totaly appropriate.

Unfortunately, false pretense seems to have begat policy, in todays' politics.

Based on that fact alone, it has gotten out of hand.

Like you said, there has been and always will be mudslinging.
