i.e immigration, hezbollah, iraq, gay marriage, patriot act etc. I mean what are we (left/right wing) divided over if nobody is getting real results? All I see is 1 side bashing the other about their views? And why is that? Why do Republicans call Democrats stupids and why do Democrats think Republicans are insensitive to human life? Are these assertions true? Observe as I am insulted for asking such a relevant question.

YES, YES. Americans jump from one government spin to the next. Like sheep jumping over a fence in a dream. The idea is that when the public are beginning to realize that the Emperor has no clothes, the Bush Administration spin doctors drag in a big fat red herring that divides public opinion, and while we are at each others throats, they slip by without a ripple and do their dirties.
Diversionary tactics have worked every time!

I agree. It is so sad that the US has fallen into an ineffectual two-party system. It certainly wasn't the intent of the founding fathers. The only way we will ever get results is if the GOP and the Democratic party disappear, and we get a chance to vote for the candidates that are truly BEST for our interests, instead of the interests of the lobbyists.

I think the media has alot to do with what issues a majority of Americans consider 'high priority'. So I think it would be safe to say that the media does a terrible job of keeping focused on certain issues because of the diversity in America.

This is what freedom and democracy is all about. If there were a quick fix, instant success we would go nuts with boredom, right? Good question!
America is a wonderful place. Those who say it sucks are afraid of truth.

You're right, man. The American people are so concerned about other peoples business they don't have any of their own and don't take care of stuff at the house.

You think it's bad now, wait until next presidency election year. Everything gets raised to "red alert", and debated over to death, and nothing will be solved.

When you have as many opinions as you do problems, there's bound to be some confusion!
