The bias on here is astounding, but not really surprising. The US economy is faltering. Obama and the Democrats have spent the last two years, any if you want to talk about Pelosi and Reid, many other years before then, screwing over the US, and yet the GOP is at fault for every single problem the US is in?

Really?
I could respond with dozens of examples that show where the GOP guided the country into the problems it's in, but you would just respond with "I'm not here to defend the GOP". And so we would go around. It's really not worth it.

Two differing philosophies about the role of government, I'll accept that.

That said - Perhaps you could tone down the accusations and trouncing people with leftist stereotypes (ex. 9-11, 'enlightened', etc.). It immediately raises the hostility level. It also might do you some good to realize right wing talk radio is, without any thread of doubt, more destructive to a national conversation about moving past ideological differences than anything put forward by other types of radio programs (yes, Rachel Maddow included). I'm sure Beck himself would say he's more condescending in the way he speaks than almost anyone else on radio. I probably won't respond to anything you're going to say to me after this post, because, frankly, you're impossible to get through to.
