    One of the wost things we can do in trying to bridge gaps between people like republicans and democrats is resort to worthless name-calling and threats. It makes both sides look childish, breeds resentment, and results in false ideologies and divisions amongst Americans.

    New Yorkers calling people from Kentucky "dumb rednecks" and people from Kentucky calling New Yorkers "elitist snobs." Then we don't see eye-to-eye on candidates because it becomes a war of "us against them."

    Even the self assigned names, such as the liberals who refer to themselves as "progressives" is awfully presumptuous.

    We need to all treat each other with a little civility. Party A is not 100% right and Party B is not 100% wrong. We must stop barking at each other and saying "You're an idiot because you believe that" and work to find common ground.

    Unfortunately it's easier said than done, and the discussions on the web exemplify that.
