First, let me say that this is a very nice example of people from both sides finding it easier to just slam the other side than try to find some actual answers. It looks like Enigma could care less about the actual issues than just proving that the candidate from the other side is worthless. And SUBMAN1 comes back with the witty reply that he can show the candidate on the other side is even more worthless.

@ Mikhayl: I don't think SUBMAN1 qualifies as a troll, because as I understand it a troll just stirs up trouble, and I think SM1 really believes what he says and that he's doing the community a service by trashing the other side, much as Enigma does.

That said, Mikhayl is responding to the fact that SM1 seems to think that honest debate is something to be avoided and only ever posts with insults rather than discussions on the issues, then accuses anyone who points this out of attacking him. He then goes on to counter-attack with insults on the original's intelligence, and claims to have issues with both sides but only one of them is worthy of his 'satire'.

By the way, in case you didn't notice, both sides have their issues. On the Obama side, they are flat lies. On the McCain side, I could see where he may not have been aware exactly, so I am willing to give the benefit of the doubt.
But the general conception is that you support McCain and hate Obama, and besides the occassional denial everything you say seems to support that observation.

This is why people give warnings about debating politics and religion. What we have on this thread is not a debate, or even an argument, but a feces-flinging contest of the highest order. I love a good debate, but some of you don't seem capable of engaging in one.

No honesty from either side here, yet both claim the other is lying and they're not.
