Fact, Our Government is Broken
   
Fact. The republicans broke it and it is the republicans who are making the situation worse by refusing to participate in repairing it!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x7762140

Fact the dems own all three houses.
Fact the Republicans may be saving our nation by not following the Marxists currently in control.

The left owns the govt and still blames the republicans because they cant get stuff passed. If the dems united the gop would be powerless to stop anything on the agenda.

2. What I think is broken is our spirit of unity as Americans
   
The two parties, and especially the repubs, place party above country.
Disagreements are an important part of the human decision making process. Our system is designed to take advantage of this by allowing all voices to be freely heard.
When we enter a world where those with opposing opinions are branded as evil at best we have thrown away our ability to make rational decisions.
I do not know how we are going to get out of this situation. 9/11 may have been an opportunity for unity but we know what the Bush threw that chance out the door.
I would love to see a reemergence of an American identity based on mutual pride of how great a nation we are. A focus on our generosity, knowledge, ingenuity, and the love to mankind our Statue of Liberty represents.
I am afraid the hopes of a better future are being dashed by the fears of the past.

I say the fear of a better future is being dashed by Obama and his cronies.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Oh my.

Even a black hole couldn't be that dense.

Careful there.

What a DUmmy defines as "mutual pride of how great a nation we are", is considerably different than how we define it.
Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.

True that...And "our government is broken"....WOW...2 thruths in one day.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Fact. Democrats can still pass nearly anything they want.

Who has controlled Congress since 2006?
Who has the House, the Senate and the Presidency?

Yeah cuz calling people speaking out Nazis and stuff would be a really bad thing! Especially by an elected representative.

Fact. You think the government is broken because you haven't gotten the free pony yet.
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.
