I quit the political about two days after it was created the first time. There was no respect shown -- not for the President, not for each other, not even any self-respect. It came down to innuendo, name calling, I'm right and you're an idiot. Wasn't worth the effort.

There are some that will insist only their viewpoint is valid. Sadly, political discussions brings that viewpoint and attitude to the forefront. Sounds like you were subjected to this mentality.
