Totally agree. Each side would rather have the other side seem as failing rather than doing what is best for the country.

"wow, you really come across as miserable (and petty also)."
I hear what you, TDF, and RIJIMMY are saying, and there's a lot to be said for civility. However, the Obamas have made it abundantly clear what they think of blue collar folks who live in rural America. You know, those of us who cling to our guns and religion because we are bitter and, of course, racist (for which Obama's excuse was that he didn't know he was being recorded, and that was a good enough excuse for liberals). The people who follow NASCAR are the exact same folks that our President and first lady like to belittle, so forgive me if I don't feel obliged to kneel down and kiss her ring. This isn't England (yet), they're not royalty, and we are not their subjects. They work for us, not the other way around.

The only value on display here is my unwillingness to do fake-nice. Maddow has, on countless occasions, referred to people like me as tea bagging racists. So again, I make no apologies for treating her in similar fashion.
Funny. I only hear cries for civility when conservatives act boorish, never when feral liberals run wild.
Last night, my golden retriever and I did our weekly visit to a hospice patient who wanted to see a friendly dog again. I'll put my tradiitonal Irish-Catholic values up against the liberal platform any day of the week, and twice on Sunday. But that doesn't mean I'm going to let anyone piss down my back and then tell me it's raining.
"rather than doing what is best for the country"
Gimme a break. If someone feels that our debt is a legitimate threat to our survival, why would they ever agree to letting Obama flush another trillion dollars down the toilet on failed stimulus programs? Amazing. During the last few years of the Bush administration, the Democrats didn't exactly roll over and let him do whatever he wanted. Liberals like to say that dissent "is the highest form of patriotism", but clearly they only feel that way when THEY are obstructing conservatives. When conservatives dissent, it's the lowest form of racism.
