    I was referring to this:

    And I'm the troll?

    Thanks.

    Michael makes some good points, but look, this is not analogous to Cuba.

    Have you ever been to East Jerusalem or the West Bank? I have. It's pretty dusty.

    Its certainly no lush, Caribbean island.

    But maybe I visited the wrong parts. What great cities did the Palestinians build? When was the high point of their civilization?

    Did the Israelis burn down their cities, loot the Palestinian History Museum, and burn down Palestine Symphony Hall.

    God, those would have been great to see. Too bad they're no longer there.

    Its such a shame.

    It should also be noted that Israel has given up 93% of the land it won in the 1967 Six-Day War.

    This is how it looked then:

    One, I said you were posting like a troll. Two consecutive posts ranting about what ridiculous crap you THINK the other side is going to say is troll-like behavior. That doesn't mean A_QB calling people fucking idiots is any better. Neither is helpful.

    And we wonder why political discourse in this country is where it's at.

    Wonder all you want. It's because both parties philosophies are about as opposite as sweet and sour.

    No, it's because people are more wont to throw insults at each other than actually discuss, fairly and without misrepresenting their opponent's views, the issues at hand.

    And anyone that disagrees with me is a fucking idiot.

    But it's a passion within those disagreements that has turned to anger, both inside and outside the system.

    And anger leads some to say "fucking idiots."

    The shape this country is in, we need anger management. Maybe congress can pay for that too.

    Our national dialogue has been nastier than this. You just have uncontrollably clueless dipshits making the racket now instead of those with intense, informed opinions.

    Let's line em up in one of those target shooting games like at a carnival and play. I'll take out Pelosi with my first quarter. You?

    Note: Emphasis on carnival game for the anti-gun lobby.
