What Rainette said.

True, there are the vandals of the real world, who look out only for themselves, or for no one. But I think that most people try to do the right thing. For the most part, the conservatives' intentions are good, even though I feel that their actions are very harmful. Not that good intentions excuse such actions, but I still feel that the common goal is there, even though the two sides have totally different visions of how to achieve that goal.

And I know some actions are so harmful that cooperation costs more than conflict. That may be the case with the conservatives. But, if that is true, this nation has lost all hope of unity. Is this the case? Perhaps. I don't know.

What do you think, Zak? Would you group the conservatives with criminals? Are their actions so dangerous that cooperation has too great of a cost? Or is cooperation useless in this case, with the visions of liberals and conservatives being so different that the idea of improving America can no longer be considered a uniting, superordinate goal?
