It would be nice if we didn't consider the other party the enemy. I don't consider the GOP so much as an enemy, but as fellow Americans who see things differently. While I don't agree with some of their positions, I don't consider them the enemy of the USA. Same with the press -- I don't think that foxnews is good for America -- but they're not the enemy of the people either.

Isn't this same logic how the Weather Underground started?
