And a poke in the eye is better than two pokes in the eye.
There is no doubt that many people are satisfied with what is coming from Washington, I am not one of them. The credit card reform legislation actually does very little to help people who are in the most need of help - if we are honest about people being held accountable for being irresponsible and taking excessive risks, I understand - but why not apply that same logic to the companies that got "bailed out"? I need to stop making a connection between companies getting billions of dollars in tax payer money to bail them out, while they screw the American public. It is clear the only people outraged are the ones who make that connection.

Perhaps indicating that you understand that there is a basis for my opinion would better indicate that you "got it", even if you disagree with my conclusion. For example with health care reform Obama is on tape saying he wants a single payer system, he is on tape saying it may take 5, 10 or 15 years to get there. Now the WH is saying people are taking his comments out of context, that he is a victim. Is that bullshit or what?
Should I start: Obama = Good. Leading people to infer that you should have no credibility in you comments about Obama because whatever he does will always be good to you? Would that be helpful? I can play games too, is that what we want?
