I'll ignore the first paragraph because I don't think you and I have the same definition of fundamental issues. To me, a fundamental issue is one that defines a party and it's belief system. I don't understand how Iraq falls into that.

I understand your points (everyone) but at some point this country has got to stop polarizing and start working together for the advancement of the country. That's the main reason I voted for Obama in the first place.

Have you guys not seen from 'afar' how divisive the last 8 years has been? Is it so much to ask to freaking move on from it?
