Fixed your typo...it's beyond acceptable...it's required. Because nobody wants to hear the truth...each group gets a different lie. |

One nine year term for senators. One six year term for representatives. Replace one third of each house every three years. That gives us a combination of experience and new blood. No person can serve more then one term as representative, one term as senator and two terms as president in their lifetime. Return us to a citizen government. |

(a) prohibit for life any former member of Congress from taking any employment in post Congressional service that requires lobbying Congress. (b) prohibit any member of Congress, or any family member of a member of Congress, or any Congressional staffer from accepting any gift, money, meals, service, or travel, beyond a cup of coffee, while serving in office. Necessary travel expenses would be paid from Congressional office budgets. (c) offer the same employment perks, such as health insurance, retirement pensions, and other allowances, for members of Congress as other career federal employees. |

Two more things I was thinking about this morning with regards to the OP's question.
First of all, those on both sides like to point out the extremists on the opposite side and try to make the case that this is the norm for that side. The democrats are all socialist and want to turn us into a totally socialist or, even worst, communist society. Are there some on that side that believe in this? Of course there are, but they are in the minority. The conservative news media and websites will always show these extremists and try to make the case that they are the base of the party. The same thing for the other side when they claim that conservatives are all knuckle dragging racists who only want to see big business succeed and the average people be poor. There are probably a few on the extreme right that have this attitude, but it is in no way the middle ground of the republican party. The other thing is that once an election has taken place, the losing side nitpicks all kinds of ridiculous things that have little or nothing to do with policies that will help us be a better country. Obama is a Muslim, Trump hasn't shown his tax returns. Really? Are these the issues that we should be trying to resolve? A picture of President Obama bowing to a foreign leader and the fact that President Trump mistakenly said 7/11 when he meant 9/11. These are absurd issues that can simple be explained by the fact that presidents are human beings and not perfect. Everyone mis-speaks and has mis-steps. People focus on those things simply to try to tear down the other side as opposed to working on real solutions to problems. Until this kind of nonsense stops, we'll remain partisan and probably become even more partisan. |

Why so partisan?
Because we have lost the ability to LISTEN. There is a reason we were
given two ears and only one mouth! We can meet in the middle if we give everyone the same respect that we expect ourselves. |

There is NO "middle" when you're dealing with different species with different abilities. We keep lowering the standards...they keep failing to meet them. If they beat "us" in anything, anywhere...I could see including them...but they're NOT. Blacks and Hispanics are ALWAYS at the bottom...so WHY would "we"...who are ALWAYS at the TOP...even consider giving them an equal say in things? They SHOULD shut up and let the white men run things. It's like giving mongoloids an equal say...they're idiots with nothing to add. |

When the American public becomes so fed up with the destructive partisanship that currently exists, will those in the political center ultimately form a third party to fight against the problem?
Despite the harsh rhetoric that we see from some posts on TOTV, there are lots of Republicans and Democrats that aren't that far apart on most issues, and are miles away from both extremes. |

American white men have been beaten into the ground...emasculated...feminized...they won't even put up a fuss as the country is destroyed by the liberals who invited in...and paid...our Hispanic invaders. |
