The reason, at least for me, why fundamentalists of at least some religions-and this probably covers Christians and Muslims both, is that the proposals which they make for governing are not ones I support. So, am I not supporting them because of their religion or how they propose to govern? And, because I won't vote for a fundamentalist is that because I dislike their religion or their politics?
+1 quadrillion. Thank you.
For me, o.k. I can take a tin foil hat joke. But I'm trying to do my own homework on all candidates to make my own informed decision. This is how smart adults operate, specifically us Engineers. That decision can go either way because its about the message and facts (ie data), not the party. I don't want to waste my vote (even though I know it doesn't really matter - E.C. and all). I wish the MSM would help us in this regard, but they are in pockets just like the politicians they cover. Its so sad that I have to go the BBC for semi-unbiased coverage amiright? The MSM has forced some of us to do our own homework. Sad.
Edit: this is a really good thread. We all don't have to agree and that's OK. We need this discourse as a country, as it makes us who we are. Freedom of thought et al. Regardless of our political affiliations and ID, I'm pretty sure we can all agree that everything is NOT going swimingly at the moment. Lets stop pointing fingers and fix it eh?
And yes, I would be very, very good at Sunday morning if it weren't for this damned hairline. And maybe my face. Its not for everyone. Think Krauthammer but with pretty eyes.
