Kooka...
Let's see, you advocated working within the system, voting for a candidate that represents one's values, sounds pretty Amrican to me. Politics has gotten so vitriolic from both sides, all we get anymore are emotional reactions rather than discourse or logic. As for voting against a candidate, it is indeed a sad statement about the last couple of decades.

I presented what I saw as a big problem in this country and presented what I believe to be a rational solution to the problem. That is more positive than what he conservative bloggers here do when the mindlessly attack anything at all that does not fit their views.
Why do you want me to be more positive when I am presenting solution, while the conservatives here are just bitching and moaning and attacking? How is that in the least bit positive?
I attack much less than the conservatives do and I present actual solution to the problems I see. Yet you and other conservative label me a whiner who is just being negative.
How is it negative to present solutions to the problem one sees?
I tell you what. If you can get even one of tow of the conservatives here to start writing posts like the one you want me to write, then you might have something. But since I write much more positive posts than they do, I see no point in trying to take up your challenge.
Although the post I am about to write will be viewed as negative by you and others I am sure, since it is about this whole discussion.

CORBIN_DALLAS IS AGAINST AMERICA
because he is in favor of all the activity that is bringing down the American way of life.
An illegal war that avoids congress' constitutional right to declare war --
destruction of the rights to privacy and against illegal search and seizure
wages getting lower and lower due to Republican activity and inactivity
I think many of us have eulgized over the loss of America in many blogs and demonstrated the illegitimacy of this administration beyond a doubt.
those who cRiticize or who do vote against a candidate because he/she is the worst of two evils are showing more love for their country than those who continually support destructive measures.

Although I agree with much of what JanesOpinion says here about making a difference, I do think that you voiced some things in your post that needed to be said. There are a lot of voters (not all) that take the way of least resistance when voting or if they vote at all, they pick "the lesser of two evils".

Kooka, I stand by my comments.
You must not be able to see how you constantly rag on others and point the finger. The tone of your post overall is definitely NOT positive! You will also note that I was not being accusatory towards liberals, as you were towards conservatives.
I dare you to write a post that says nary a negative thing against another party. Instead, write a post that specifically states, in a positive way, what differences a third party will make in this country. What sort of changes do you envision. Be upbeat -- I dare you. Be positive -- I dare you. And if you can pull this off, I will be so impressed cuz' in general your writings are not positive, no matter how positive you say you are in real life.
I'm waiting . . . . .

Did you not read the post?
I very much made it clear what needs to change.
The whole post was about what needs to change and how to do that.
Did you just not understand the post itself?
Although I think Corbin read only the headline when he wrote his first comment, since he seemed to think it was me talking.
And where sot eh conservatives present any ideas that show they have a clue as to what needs to be done?
Why is it the conservative point the finger saying ‘You have no plans and are just talk out your ass’ when they do that as much if not more than their opponents?
For some reason conservatives need not give nay answers or plans, while they expect the whole rest of the world to do so.

Where do I whine?
Show me where I do this.
In this post I very much talk about the positive because I present a very realistic idea than can help to fix the problem those like you have caused for this great country. While you go around and do all you can to live in your illusion of the world and keep up the mentality that is holding us back and causing us to loose track of our potential, I am trying to give people ways they can fight against that negative momentum.
How is that not positive?
And where do you get the idea that I think everything is wrong and working against me?
I guess that kind of a comment can only come form someone who does not have to work very hard to get by in life.
I wish you could 8understnd what hard work and freedom are all about. Until you are able to break out of your bubble of illusion, you will never be able to understand the real world.
As for your drivel remark, I have noticed that it is often hard for me to rebut your comments. They are so much drivel, as are your posts, that a true rebuttal is difficult, but an intelligent person should be able to present facts and logic that shows the mistakes made by those who live in illusion and really are clueless about the real world.

I'm chuckling at the comments I've just read . . . .
Sorry, Kooka, but I would concur with Corbin on this one.
If you want change, start elaborating what you would change, develop a positive perspective, stop pointing fingers and instead focus on how you would do things differently, and how things could look if your third party was in control -- and perhaps YOU will be the next third party candidate for Pres!!!

Wow that was.... far from being well thought out or intelligent. In fact that was plan and straight out nothing more than a childish remark that comes from someone who has no good rebuttal for my post.
You once more help to back up my point. You response just helps to show that I am right.
Could you try just once to actually prove me wrong or show my I made mistakes if you think I am wrong?
And since unlike conservatives, I am for freedom and liberty and doing what is right and so on, I would say I am very much for America.
I am against those, Like Bush and other conservative, who are trying to destroy this country. I am against Big Business running our lives and having more power over where the country goes than the people do.
If you think I am against America, then show me why. Otherwise you are just whining and complaining, and helping me to prove my point.
