You don't know what is flawed in this thinking? Really?
So here we have two parties that have some pretty fundamental differneces in how they would handle
a) the current economic crisis
b) the need to do something regarding climate change
c) various social programs
and you don't think that people who think the two parties are the same have some flawed logic? Yes, both parties tend to lean toward the middle, but it would appear to me that both parties have some pretty opposite views on what are turning out to be some of the largest issues of this election.

I simply don't like you. You know that. You don't like me either, so it's all good. Calling you a ###### is just satisfying to me because I really, really don't like you.
A big reason why I don't like you is because you have such a hard time understanding other peoples' opinions. You're telling me that my logic is flawed and that it makes no sense. Really, if you think about it (if you can comprehend this), the problem lies with you. YOU are the one that doesn't understand and therefore you think that my logic is flawed and makes no sense.
I've been on this site for 4 years and your condescending attitude toward anything that you don't understand is tiring. I can no longer hide my pure dislike for you and your mindless rambling.
Don't respond to my posts if they're too complicated for you. Just leave them alone and let me debate with people that respect my opinion, but disagree with it.

Ah the old I don't like you so you must not understand my post argument.
Good one. I'm trying to give you logical reasons why I think your reasoning is flawed and the best you can come up with is "your ######ed and don't understand my position so don't read it and don't comment on it"
That's super!

This is your opinion. Mine is different. I think that if someone is satisfied (or at least NOT dissatisfied) with the status quo (the present political and social landscape of of the country), the right to stay home on voting day is theirs. If you disagree, fine. If you don't understand what I'm saying, request clarification. Better yet, just don't read my posts.

I totally understand what your saying and I think your logic is dead wrong.
If people are happy with the status quo then they should be voting to keep it that way.
What happened in the last time the Liberals had a majority?
What happened with all the people that were happy with the status quo who decided that not voting was a great way to keep that one up?
The Liberals lost and the status quo was smashed all to hell.
With voter turn out as low as it was, if any sort of significant portion of the non voters were doing so to keep the status quo it seems to me that they'd have been much better served to vote liberal than to sit at home on their butts.
