Far from it.
We want you guys and gals to speak, yell and scream like the emotional irrational children you expose yourselves to be daily.
Why stop the best sales tool we have.

The 1st amendment exposes not only fact & truth, but also fools. Why stop that.
I have only witnesses the progressive democrats & republicans, censor ideas and speech they hate.

Go ahead and discuss policy. I dare you.
I didn't vote in the poll because I couldn't find an answer I liked. I like this ^^ answer.

Instead we get silly OPs like the one here.
Damn right. We've all had quite enough of the silliness around here.

Keep your embarrassment to yourself. I don't think you can afford to share it.

The original poll was garbage, to be sure, but there have been efforts since then to discuss policy, and for the most part, you have refused to acknowledge them, other than to accuse those with whom you disagree of "making stuff up."

I agree with this too!

A willingness to work with the right to compromise on legislation instead of running into a corner and screaming "racism" or "oppression" over relatively minor issues. Don't pull stunts like trying to recall Walker because he wants to cut lavish pensions that let public employees retire at 55 in luxury at the expense of the state budget. Objectively look at issues instead of using emotions to manufacture injustice where none exists.

Your post is garbage. Tons of OPs with no talk on policy. That was my point. Doesn't surprise me you missed it.
The Vapid Response Team thinks when someone says "I like turtles" that counts as a discussion.
Anytime someone makes an OP and wants to discuss policy I'll be more than happy to.

Tell you what go ahead and start a thread on our involvement in the Middle East or the economy and I'll be happy to jump in. Otherwise I'll continue to ridicule anyone who makes and stands up for OPs like this.

This.

The vast majority of it anyways.

National defense, foreign policy, border enforcement and immigration and maybe some certain aspects of infrastructure that would be impractical on a state level are legitimate functions of the federal government.

Pretty much everything else should be left up to the individual states.
