    Thank you proving my point...lol.

    We didn't invade Vietnam. South Vietnam asked for our assistance in fighting off the Commies.

    Well there are certainly some Democrats that call 9/11 an inside job, but Republicans have made the king of the 9/11 conspiracy, Alex Jones, their go to guy.

    I have sources showing dems are worse off mentally, but since both parties suck, I would have to say that those supporting either party have some level of mental disorder.

    On the topic of buying BS, I live in CA and results are the opposite of the dems political promises, yet people still vote dem here. All I see here is partisans criticizing their own reflection.

    I live on the Monterey Peninsula, love it. Cali largest US economy, by far. Best weather, Great music and arts. I agree having a GOP Guv for most of 1983-2011 really hurt us, especially Arnie putting everything on the credit card.


    BTW, MY PREVIOUS LINK WAS YOUR ACTUAL STUDY, JUST PRESENTED THE CORRECT WAY :)

    Good point, but we don't know what questions are in the poll.

    Speaking only for myself, I dislike hyperbole, and using the language of violence for anything other than actual violence is a turn-off. Why not say work for it, instead of fight for it? That puts the goal, whatever it is, into an adversarial light.
