    The NpO isn't very good at war. They continue to demonstrate this through their poor use of spy attacks [see: the spy screen], their fascination with nukes at too low and infra/wonder level [look how useful that is] and their lack of firepower in every war since [and including] noCB. I'm not too sure why people expect them to be military super powers. They are just your typical sanctioned alliance.

    I really see no point in continuing this discussion. You obviously drink the kool aide enough to realize that no matter what I say, it's not going to change your mind. The facts are available to the American people, and it's unfortunate that reasonable democrats are consistently being co-opted by radical marxists and fabian socialists, hellbent on destroying this great nation.

    I find it rather bizarre that you criticise someone for 'drinking the kool aide' and refusing to see past the spin, and then turning around and claiming democrats are controlled by radical marxists. It is even more ironic when you consider your next point I quoted below, when you claim that non-partisan discussion is needed. You've said that on the one hand, democrats should ignore their more radical fringe, but on the other, people from across the political spectrum should sit down together and discuss issues.

    If this debate has taught me one thing, it's that partisan politics is the real enemy. The sooner Obama can see this, the easier it will be for congress to get back to work.

    Partisan politics is a misplaced ideal americans have, it wont solve anything. One of the main reasons Obama has been criticised is for his comprising. Non-partisan politics is nothing but compromise. Unless you actually subscribe to those ridiculous pluralist theories about 'whatever causes public discourse is good for the nation' then I don't understand why you would think non-partisan politics would lead to anything but a weak, slow decision making process.

    Must be why he took a swipe at the supposed NON PARTISAN supreme court when they made a ruling he did not agree with, during his sotu address. Also why democrats held closed door meetings and locked conservatives out, during the healthcare drafting earlier this year.

    Do try to take credit where credit is due folks. Afterall, we wouldn't be here, in this era of "Change", if not for you!

    The Supreme Court hasn't been non-partisan since the 1930s when Roosevelt stuffed it with liberals, although admittedly it didn't become a major problem until the 80s.

    Aside from that, Citizens United was criticised by law Academics, he was at perfect liberty to disagree with it too. The democrats probably held meetings behind closed doors because they wanted to push their legislative agenda, more news at 11.
