Blige, Tina Fey, Jon Stewart, Whoopi Goldberg, Danny DeVito and NBC News' Brian Williams. TODAY co-anchor Matt Lauer was host.

So everything in life is now either Dem or Repub categorized ?

How sad that people view life through political glasses.

Fox "news" said that this was just an Obama rally to help him win re-election.

Yeah it's not people helping people any more. Will the aid only go to libs as well? Lol
As America circles the drain.

Exactly. I cannot remember a time when the parties were so polarized and every single issue had a political angle.

Maybe it's time to outlaw all news stations and make the FCC rules much more strict about slanting news.

This is getting ridiculous.

You're from NJ, you know that Springsteen is pretty darned generous to helping his country.

It's another perfect example of how the different party ideologies react to disasters like this.

Those on the left are first in line to help out their fellow americans.

Those on the right just sit on their lazy asses and doing nothing but complaining about "da libs"

Good! Makes me proud to be a "lib."

If you want to categorize people that way, I mean. I think it's kind of stupid to look at every single thing that happens through a political lens. We're humans first and foremost.

Heck, you don't even have to be from Jersey to know that.

I believe the thread starter was trying to stir sheet up with the title of this thread. What is referred to as trolling. I didn't think folks who claimed they were independents would do such a thing. lol
