    And it's not about losing or winning an election, it's about a fair election.

For the Republican Pennsylvania House Majority Leader it is about winning an election:

I see your majority leader and raise you a Joe Biden.

It's about a fair election.

I heard a story on National Democrat Radio the other day about a group of "voters rights" people who have decided to just get every some dang ID. Perfect solution. Plus it's a great get-out-the-vote effort on top of it.

And then they'll have a fair election.

Don't get me started on electronic versus paper ballots....

That's probably the most I've ever agreed with you, cliffelam.

Ok, here is some other stuff we can agree on: -> Everybody should have a friend with a pickup truck -> Everyone should be the guy who someone can call when they're in trouble -> Everyone should be kind to children and old people -> People are more important than animals or things

The part of the Venn diagram of life indicating agreement is always much larger than the rest of the picture.

Sure, but those are the uninteresting things to talk about. I don't like all this lovey dovey agreement BS. Let's argue more!

4 for 4.

I bet we can get at least three more: -> Leave it better than you found it. -> Take pride in your work. -> Don't disparage your significant other.

-> Don't be "that guy" in the conversation more than a few times a year -> Always buy girl scout cookies, boy scout wreaths, and school wrapping paper from neighborhood kids

-> Always be able to point to someone that is drunker than you are.
