However, based on the negative and hateful posts I am reading here from
those on the left, this appears to be only a dream.


Negative and hateful from people on the left? I've been posting about
the need for all of us to try hard to see the "other" sides views and not
just assume they are all stupid etc.

I do not put you in that group Gary.

Many of the posts in response from
the right have been in the tone & vein of: Who cares about those
that aren't with us. Ship them off to an island. Let them move to
Canada or France. They are all out of touch with reality.

Perhaps some, but certainly not many. However I can see *many* hateful and
negative posts from the left here each and every day, most especially today
when we are asking to come together.


I totally agree that BOTH sides need to make an effort to identify the
things we have in common and to work with those that disagree to
find solutions that work. We also need to SEE and UNDERSTAND
how and why the "other" side thinks and feels as they do. I'm sure
that "we" are not right on everything and "they" are not wrong on
everything. ~ I also agree that there are people on all sides that
are very negative and who won't try in the least for real unity.

As I said before I believe the onus is on the left. This vote showed that
people are tired of the same old liberal tactics and beliefs, with a
majority voting for the republican ideals.


But why to you, Jim, only point on the negativity and hateful
posts "on the left." Don't you see there are at least as many
doing that from the right here?

Nope. The hateful and negative posts are coming from the left, especially
today.
