I answered other, I dont identify myself as anything but a independent or centrist, basically anything in the middle and this board among many other things proves that. Ive been called a lefty and Ive been called a righty depending on the subject LOL
IMO people that let a party define them are either idiots, sheep or just dont care, they conform just to do so.
After my years of debate there are obviously nutballs on both the main sides and nutballs that are on their own unique side that often get misclassified depending on whether you agree with them or not. I have found the extreme righties to be the biggest nutballs and the most void of logic and common sense while being 100% delusional and hypocritical. BUT dont think for one second they dont have competition on the the left because they certainly do, its just IMO the extreme righties have the crown in this department. EASILY.
One thing that happens here a lot if a person is a so called righty and they disagree with someone they quickly try to write them off as a lefty and vice versa.
Not me I can think for myself and be objective with emotion playing little role, I prefer common sense and logic.
As far as my friends go I have all types, got a guy at work that is a classic nutball bias rightie, thinks everything right is RIGHT and anything left is evil. Loves beck and rush and hannity and fox etc, which is fine because I listen and watch those shows to but his issue is he doesnt see the obvious bias and lies that spring up on those shows. He believes them to be gospel which is an obvious red flag. He doesnt see the obvious opinions sold as facts, especially with the radio. Its actually mind boggling how a person can be so normal otherwise but such a political idiot?
I have another friend almost but not quite the opposite of him, he will atleast admit fault with the left when needed and praise the right wen needed BUT his craziness comes in with the radio shows and fox because he believes it grows people like my other friend and wants them shut down.
I explained to him idiots will be dumb with or with out mis-information.
Bottom line is be yourself, be objective, dont be a sheep and if you're one of the people that dont think Fox or MSNBA is bias you're joking, blind and bias yourself or a complete idiot, pick one because those are the only options.
