Just pondering and wondering

Your opinion.

Someone might remember my saying I'm too different people here. I've made it no secret I'm displeased with the condition of our country and on those forums I can be cordial or down right boligarant. This is where most of the intolerant blocking on both sides occur.

On the other side, my true favorite, is the humorous and life situation serious forums. There are even some completely political apposed and we get along fine when laughable subjects agree. I think this is as it should be when political beliefs seem to be the only separation.

In your self opinion can you get along with folks given the same situation in your real life and online.

Example of my real life. I once had a coworker, elder then me, I got along with fine and we discussed many life things including his military days. But if I wanted to push his buttons all I had to say was Clinton is a used car salesman and nothing more and he would explode LOL. So we'd have the senseless argument for an hour then go out to lunch. The animosity didn't stick in those days.

No doubt you've heard of the Hollywood director Frank Capra? He of the corny, uplifting movies such as Mr Smith Goes to Washington and It's a Wonderful Life? I bet you didn't know the man was a staunch conservative republican who despised FDR but revered the strongmen Franco and Mussolini.
The guy was also an informant for the FBI during the McCarthy era.

@rinkydinkydoink Isn't republican controversy more entertaining than liberal cheating?
@Gibbon

Ill give you this about liberal cheating:

JFK won the presidency with the help of cheating - everyone knows this. Even at the time.
Also, he should never have been allowed to vie for the highest office because he was a very sick man.

There isn't enough space - nor do I have the time - to list all the cheating your side has done starting with the early 1970s president/vice-president duo who both had to resign due to lying, theft and cheating.

@rinkydinkydoink I think to this day the left has won that competition.
@Gibbon

We'll see tomorrow night and the succeeding days how the losers react to their (possibly resounding) defeat.

@rinkydinkydoink Are either of us going to be surprised by either sides chaos giving the political divide that has intentionally been created?
@Gibbon

I just hope the expected chaos doesn't get out of hand. That's all... I don't think anyone wants that to happen.

@rinkydinkydoink Unfortunately the word insane has been tossed around much during this election. Myself guilty.

@rinkydinkydoink Not going to let politics break up our acquaintance.
@Gibbon

Thank you. I feel the same.
