I persist because I don't like people taking stances that are simply untrue, such as your position on John McCain and torture: http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/630/

I also don't think that a liar is somehow "not as bad," simply because fewer people listen to, or respect them. My initial argument stated that both parties were, "a bunch of liars." I did not say, in any way, that both parties are equally damaging.

Your argument seems to me to be that because they don't have power, the democratic lies are somehow morally superior. And yet, there's no evidence that if they got power they would go away.

I am not a republican of any sort, and I'm definitely not arguing for McCain. I run an atheist group, if you don't believe me: www.marylandatheists.org I like to think that I despise both parties equally, though you may disagree.
