Smug comments don't substitute for logical rebuttals. That is, unless you simply don't have a logical rebuttal.

In which case, stick to smug comments. It's an effective defense mechanism for those with weak intellect.

There are reasons reason that doesn't happen.

Thanks for posting that. I can't say that I'm surprised. I really hope that Ben Swann is right about the end of the two party monopoly.

Oh, I doubt that will happen anytime soon.

I already gave a logical position... that it's absolutely fantastic that a mass murderer is dead and no longer a threat to anyone. You disagree, and seeing how that is a pretty incredible position to take, it's hard not to be smug in response.

I really think this probably boils down to you being angry that a Democrat was able to accomplish what a Republican didn't care about.

I'm not sure if you're baiting me or if you're really that dense.

There are a lot of highly intelligent people who shun both parties. There are good reasons for this. I highly suggest you attempt to think outside the box a bit and find out what those reasons are.

And BTW, your condescending tone would be annoying if it weren't for the fact that you're so obviously misguided. I'm not even being facetious. You have a very vague way of waffling around an issue that smacks of misunderstanding.

What does having good reason to not like either party have to do with your argument that OBL being dead is a bad thing or that Iran having nukes is good?

Just gonna throw this out there- I watched the 3rd party debate on youtube the other day, and it was just terrible. It was about an hour talking about how horrible the two-party system is (something I thought you wouldn't really need to talk about, but whatever) and then a lot of anti-war on drug stuff, which is all great, but I don't know, overall, they seemed to just be making the point that they are not D's or R's. Kinda like dems just want you to not vote for republicans and republicans just don't want you to vote for dems...

Then there is always the option of just not voting.

That's likely what I'll be doing.

Statistically, your vote doesn't matter. Cliches about 'doing your civic duty' aside, the likelihood that your vote will decide the election is very low.
