Looking at philosophy should be an indicator of what may be possible to accomplish.  And yet, so often, isn't.  The biggest part of the problem is the absolute disconnect between stated philosophy and actions performed and accomplished.

You have been shown a very acceptable list of alternatives (and I personally have even expressed approval of Tom Coburn, even with his right wing leanings - proving my abilitiy to support an acceptable alternative, even if I don't agree with all of it).  The problem is that you have absorbed so much of the Kool-Aid that you cannot accept that there are exceptional alternatives to the one in particular (Inhofe), and that inability to retreat from the extremist position even an inch shows that it is NOT about acceptable alternatives, but IS about the dogma.  In this case, no matter how much extra money Inhofe has cost the taxpayers with his past grafty actions, his vicious lies and unjust/untrue attacks on opponents (that right there is called evil - or politics...), and no matter how ineffective he was for SO many years representing the voters of this state (couldn't even get a committee appointment for his first few terms as representative), as long as he gives the philosophical lip service, the actions/results just don't matter.  As so many Oklahomans believe and vote.

Nothing but the extremist position would be "good" enough.  How sad...

Dan Boren.  Would make a very good Senator to complement Coburn.

You need to get a hobby.

Got one!  Trying to help you back to the light!

I know you didn't start this way....you passed engineering school for crying out loud!

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

You have a distorted view of back to the light.  I would try to do the same for you but I really think you have gone to the dark side forever.  When will you have your final Darth Vader moment.  Hopefully before your death bed so you can enjoy life again.

Funny, I kind of have the same thoughts about you.  What happened to you?

I stayed in the center.  Fiscal conservative, social moderate.  Well, almost center...
(And having a continuous Stealers Wheel moment my entire life....how will I ever get down the stairs?)

I  believe in things like personal liberty - as in limiting the role of government in peoples lives - and that means women's lives, people who want to enjoy a touch of mother nature, as well as staying out of people's way to start a business, make a living and become wealthy doing it - as much as possible.  And many more.  Those pesky little liberties so oft quoted by the extremists as being in the Constitution, but then repudiated by their meddling actions.  And that the government has the duty to protect it's citizens rather than act as a shield to certain "chosen ones" to impose their vested interests on the rest of us.

And lest you think I am just going after your side, no, I am not - the left has it's own problems with personal liberty as in trying to dictate to me what type of casual sporting activity I "should or should not" indulge in.  And they have been getting worse about it since 1968!

You need to visit an optometrist.  A good pair of eye glasses would help you see your positions more accurately.  You are putting too much weight on the right side of the distribution.

Edit:
I know what happened..... You killed a LOT more of your brain cells in the 60s and 70s than I did.  ;D

Wouldn't think of it at all...the more you participate, the more opportunity to help you on this journey to enlightenment!  I will continue to help and guide, to bring you to that "center" that everyone should enjoy - being in balance with nature and your true inner self.  Rust never sleeps!
