> Look these people all stand around eachother all day long, talking and shooting the bull. They get on T.V and force themselves to be combative. <

Agreed. I think the combativeness is mainly an act, calculated to attract a TV audience. They're like lawyers who virtually batter one another to death in the courtroom, then afterwards go out together to the local tavern for a drink.

And by the way, it IS possible for a conservative and a liberal to be good friends in the truest sense of the word. Happens all the time.

Yes, I realize that in my working life I do not run up to people asking if they are libs or cons. However, If someone declares themselves a lib. or con. you know you may have issues. The people on T. V declare themselves upfront- so, set themselves up as bait. Go get them-

Kinda like the WWF, huh? All of a sudden I'm seeing them all in little tiny stretchy pants and it's not a pretty image.

That's the impression I get. I think these cable news shows where conservatives go against liberals are political WWF.
