If you ask political questions why do you ask them?
A) Genuine curiousity about what others think on the subject.
B) I don't trust the government and everyone needs to know it.
C) I just can't get enough people bashing George Bush.
If you answer political questions why do you answer them?
A) Genuinely feel I have something to contribute to the discussion.
B) I am the smartest person on the web and everyone needs to know it.
C) I just hate George Bush and I can't bash him enough.
This in not a joke question, I am genuinely curious about people's opinions. It is also not an open invitation to start bashing George Bush. I take exception with many things about the Mr. Bush, but he is the president and I will always honor the spirit of the office no matter who occupies it.
My Answer: A to both.
Reason: I think debate is healthy is healthy in a free society. However name calling, especially against other debaters is counter-productive to the point you may be trying to make.

The success of the US is based on an informed electorate...without an informed electorate citizens will make poor choices in the voting booth. Responsible political discourse is the duty of every citizen...the sharing and exchange of ideas is critical to the functioning of our country...also, I find people and their opinions extremely interesting.

I'm a combo on both A and C for both parts of your question. I do feel i can contribute but I also like to bash Bush. His presidency has been frustrating for someone who never voted for him at all (especially the 2000 election).

A&A as well. I like to think about and consider whats going on in our country. I think this is a pretty good place to get an incling of what Americans are thinking. Granted, it's a little slanted, because the ones on the far left or far right are voicing their opinions the loudest, but I enjoy the insight, whether I agree with it or not. And you know, every now and then, I learn something.

I feel like I have something to contribute. I love politics. It's so much more fun to be involved in what's going on in the world and have some opinions to pass on than to ignore all the issues in the world today.
Plus it's a good little game to play between me and a couple of my close pals; see who gets the most points! (BTW, I'm winning, guys...)

I answer to give Americans a foreign perspective on their country. Otherwise they'd have no idea. (A for both btw)
