What do you dislike most about your side of the political aisle?

I consider myself very liberal, but I HATE overly PC people and race-baiters. The "PC" police thing that liberals often go for just kills me. I am probably one of the least PC people that you'd ever meet and I'm pretty much never offended. People often throw out that the GOP and Tea Party are racists because the policies they espouse. I don't believe that for a second and to me it's a cop-out to say so.

Well...that's what I hate about my side.

Any other takers?
its the same thing i hate on both sides of the isle, stupidity, and intractability. both sides do the same thing on every subject, they jump on a few facts, and then hammer those facts home, and when someone disagrees with them they start the name calling and mud slinging. and for the record, i too am not immune to this, but i am trying to remedy that in myself.

i also hate when anyone takes someones words and twists them so that the meaning is completely changed, or that they read something into a statement that wasnt there.

and i hate the fact that there is no compromise on either side.

An obsession to legalize pot. I'm in favor, but it certainly isn't near the top of the list in terms of importance.

I tend to support Democrats, but they are the ones most responsible for our detestable and Orwellian "child protection" system.

I want to vote republican but the problem is that I'm pro choice, pro gay marriage and I believe 100% in science over anything and I also don't like guns very much. Hmm...it makes it hard.

Oh, and I don't like this overly moral attitude either. It's makes them look so old and hypocritical.

So you say there is something for me after all. I'm a brand new citizen so I'm still learning.

Oh, and when I say I don't like guns I am not saying I want to deny the right of others. Just fyi.
