how is that 30 years of conservative domination again?

Very good point.

Pan, you can't go there. I've had this conversation with many a liberal and they refuse to believe that anyone but a conservative would be against the administrations bailout. Those who are 'moderate' are now right wing for opposing the rescue of the countries economy. It's that or they are just not intelligent enough to 'get it'.

I know. People are so polarized that anything they do not agree with is extreme on the other end and they are unwilling to listen and see what the true center is.
I don't think it's their intelligence it's the goods they are being sold and they have been brainwashed to believe that anything anyone other than their leaders say is wrong and doesn't even deserve true debate. It's too extreme for them to want to understand because that would require thinking for themselves and maybe seeing their leaders are wrong and have been leading them down a wrong path.
