The conversations here are very illustrative of this, and I'm as guilty of it as anyone else.

For everybody to take a quick look in the mirror would be a good start

I don't know TDF. We need to listen to what other people are actually saying (for example, let's keep taxes no higher than they need to be), as opposed to reacting to what someone else claims we are saying (for example, conservatives only care about the rich).

I don't have a clue how we do it.
