Yes yes, that's great Vince. We all know that Boortz is a libertarian because he loves to toot his great big libertarian horn every chance he gets, which is pretty much on those rare occasions where you're not sucking it.

But here's something you might not have known about your precious Libertarians, Vince! They're conservative! Yes, YOU'RE conservative! Wow, what a shocking revelation! You do know that "Conservative" is not a political party, right? I mean, I know I already told you once but you must have skipped over that part or something.

And you know something else, Vince? My dictionary (yes, I actually own one and use it when I'm not certain of words...something you could clearly benefit from) defines bipartisan as "of or involving two parties". And partisan, while in a simplistic sort of grunty caveman way might mean "one sided", to most other people it means "a fervent, sometimes militant supporter or proponent of a party, cause, faction, person, or idea" or "devoted to or biased in support of a party, group, or cause: partisan politics."

The examples you give of historical political battles that are not meaningless are a far cry from some random schmuck (Boortz) bitching like a, well, bitch on his website. The simple fact is that this knee-jerk sort of back and forth bitchslappery doesn't do anybody any good. You know what both sides sound like to me? "WAH WAH WAH IT'S THE [OTHER GUY'S] FAULT." They're so busy blaming one another for everything that they really don't get anywhere. Call me crazy, but I think there was probably a little more substance to your examples than simple knee-jerk reactions. But hey, what do I know? I'm just "an idiots who should go place some D&D". But where should I place it, Vince?

You're right about one thing though, Vince. Smartasses usually aren't the ones pulling the cart. That would be the horses.

Oh, and Vince? Hypothetically, even if you WERE right about making me look like an idiot (you're not), isn't it kind of, I don't know, hypocritical to say what you said after Max Burbank has torn you a different poop chute for every day of the week?
