I saw you making the point to refute Democrat's ideas (like PR statehood) though, so it's not that outlandish that Republicans are faced with this very complaint as well.
Perfectly true.
Quote:I have to say, you are quite consistent in focusing on the Democrats' sins. It might be worth noting that the main guy from the other side would probably rather not have elections at all, or would at least prefer to artificially change their outcome in his favor, and a whole party apparently backs that approach. Imho, in this instance the Democrat's sins just pale in comparison.
This is due to the very left leaning slant of this sub-forum. Prior to the move from the official site it was either slanted right or rather balanced. If you could access posts from that era you'd see much more criticism of the GOP. I don't feel the need to pile on to what ten plus other posters are saying. Also, reading the same arguments endlessly repeated is boring and creates the very bubble I'm trying to avoid. I like to point out the flaw and inconsistencies in people's argument and positions (probably due to being very good at interviews/interrogations). That being the case, and the vast majority of posters here being left leaning, you're going to get a skewed vision of my personal positions. Let's be real, the most conservative posters here, either now or in the past, weren't the most adroit debaters. Also, the people who I've found the most personally disquieting, at least lately, have been very left leaning. Go back to the days of GA9/TommyC, Dabo and SloppyLombardiSlaps and you'd get the exact opposite.
I will allow for my personal positions to have drifted right on some issues, especially in response to the real ugliness I've seen and been subjected to in the past two or so years. But, as previously stated by long term posters such as Bel and michalesean I'm much more liberal on most issues than I am conservative.
