Is there one issue the GOPers can agree with us on?
Sorry for the mangled grammar, but I believe there has to be one issue every American can agree on despite our political affiliations. We know the GOPers are going to protest July 4th.

Is there no single issue we could all protest/celebrate as Americans?

Or will it be a bunch of libertarians bitching about taxes, GOPers whining about birth certificates and us (still) trying to get the GOP-controlled media to discuss the full extent of crimes by the previous Administration?

1. They can't even agree amongst themselves.
That's part of their pathology. What makes you think they're ever going to agree with you?

5. To be fair, we on the left have many differences.

I think the push by the GOP-controlled media to say that the tea baggers had "many" complaints is to give the illusion that the GOP is the party of the "big tent."

I don't know anyone who believes that.

2. Use of the word "No"
We should be using it with reciprocal abandon.

3. I agree with them on guns and the DP
But I'm in the minority here about that.

On other issues, I'm pretty much a lefty.

4. Condescension always wins people to the cause.
As does trivializing serious matters.
