One only need look at Yahoo message boards, when it comes to politics, to see there is no such thing as political politeness. Political discourse is just that discourse. If people could be mature about their postings that is one thing, but there are too many people out there who don't care what they say, who they offend, or how they act. I guess that is the way life is now. It is sad, I know it could change, but it would take clear headed adults to change it and they seem so hard to find now a days when one steps outside to view the world as a whole. I know there would be many here who would be able to have a discussion without going off on someone, but for the few that can't help themselves it would be tough..
