We'll agree to disagree then. In my opinion starting a political thread and calling a politician a moron in the title is obviously going to lead to a charged political debate that will incite some posters (and did).
Maybe our definitions of 'civil debate' don't quite match up... in mine subjective terms like 'moron' don't fit, Nancy Pelosi is a moron in your opinion, not in actual fact. Just like I think George Bush is a moron, but I also acknowledge that that's not a fact, just my opinion. He may very well be an intelligent person... I call that 'being flexible' and 'seeing things from the other point of view'.
