First off, my apologies I mistook you for "The Paineful Truth" Who has made all of the assertions I was referring to. Now if you would kindly inform me what I don't know about U.S. politics I would appreciate it as I'm very interested. However I don't watch Fox news so I'm sure I'm missing some valuable information.
I'm not absolutely sure what it is you believe, but I've seen you post some pretty out there straw man arguments against US Conservatives. Perhaps you're getting that impression from your own media, or maybe those are the opinions you hold of political opponents from your own country, and are just projecting them onto us. Regardless of why, just know we're not nearly as bad as you seem to think.
Also, don't take it the wrong way. I don't expect foreigners to understand US politics. Why should they? It isn't their country, and it isn't their system. The same goes for your country too, by the way. I wouldn't expect non-Canadians to fully understand Canadian politics, and I'd find it completely reasonable if you thought so too.
