I was hoping to find actual studies here. I like evidence, and changing my mind on things when evidence points to conclusions opposite of what I think are true.

lighten up, dude.
I was making fun of Boo and his statements of absolutes.
Neither side is 100% right or wrong. , both sides are probably wrong more than they are right.
So very true.
It's people like boutons who are the problem. Those who are so highly polarized that they always vote one way...
Koolaid drinkers
When was the last time you voted for a democrat and for what position was said democrat running?
I'm extremely pleased to be polarized when the other pole is Repugs, bubbas, Christian supremacists, rednecks, 1%ers, VRWC, the VRWC proxies the tea baggers, gun fellators, NONE of whom do on ing thing FOR America, and 100s of against America.
Polarization (zero tolerance) is easier than thinking.
I look at the evidence of what the VRWC/Repugs have done, what they support and oppose, and KNOW, after THINKING through the evidence, they suck, so I'm push back. You right wing bullies just HATE push back, as all bullies do.
The fact that Boo thinks TB and I are right wingers speaks volumes about HIS polarity.
I voted for my current Oregon representative. Earl Blumenauer. I disagree with so many of his positions, but he also supports more positions I like than the RINO was who was running against him.
Yes Larry, I do understand where you are coming from.
Generalizations:
Democrats:
1. Difficulty solving problems requiring immediate attention. Deflect attention to why the house is burning instead of putting the fire out first.
2. Inefficient. Don't give enough consideration to all the ramifications of legislation designed to help people.
3. Tend to be dreamers instead of doers.
4. Tend to distrust people with money and trust those without.
5. Put more weight on how we are viewed by the world rather than what is good for US citizens. We are all one...
Got lots more. Pgardns axioms of absolute truth *sarcasm*
I will entertain a Republican list as well if paid. And I even have generalizations concerning the admirable traits of each party. I know that being positive is sucked under by the whirlpool of cynicism on ST. So the positive list must be very short.
The fact that you linkdump from blogs like alternet, thinkprogress, et al demonstrates your lack of actual critical thought. That you do this while bashing Heritage, Fox, et al is telling.
simpleton! TB
and false equivalence VRWC's Heritage/Cato etc, now 40 years old, Fox and all the hate media like Limbaugh, Malkin, etc are simply not "simplistically" equivalent to the progressive sites I link.
Larry...
I think your meds are wearing off...
Lol at your false equivalence teddy bear you wag around with you. Bull analysis is bull analysis. That's the only equivalence.
lol facile simpleton.
Your "progressive" cites are shill generators. But they say what you want them to.
I've said this to my friends many times. Democrats have us on a bicycle to (proverbial) . Republicans just want us to board a jet plane.
Both going to the same place, just one faster than the other.
LOL...
I see it the other way around. Democrats will take us there faster.
When was the last time you voted other than GOP in a meaningful election? And no I do not assume like boutons that you have never voted one way or another.

america is complete . such a huge gap between classes, you get robbed under your nose and cant do about it, cops are the upper class' lapdogs, prisons are their way of enslaving the lower class, the lower class is mentally re ed because instead of revolting by being educated and changing the system, they create a culture where prison is the end goal, middle class is ed and un able like boutons says because they're caught in the crossfire between the upper and lower class...all this in the name of "freedom."
go live anywhere else in the world not under a dictatorship or communist government and see for yourself how truly "free" america is.
but you're all keyboard warriors who wouldn't dare set foot outside your house much less the country.
and what pisses me off most is that other countries use this all as a model - culturally, economically, and socially...and they're starting to adapt that way.
