Take "the Other" to lunch

[floridaorange]

There's an angry divisive tension in the air that threatens to make modern politics impossible. Elizabeth Lesser explores the two sides of human nature within us (call them "the mystic" and "the warrior") that can be harnessed to elevate the way we treat each other. She shares a simple way to begin real dialogue -- by going to lunch with someone who doesn't agree with you, and asking them three questions to find out what's really in their hearts.

^Btw, without knowing each others back stories or having real conversations, this section will almost always be a trainwreck. You have to be very aware of the language you use and you have to come from a place of humility. I don't see it happening...

carry on~

GOP...would reduce current spending for non-defense, non-homeland security and non-veterans programs to 2008 levels, eliminate federal control of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, cut the federal workforce by 15 percent through attrition, and cut some $80 billion by blocking implementation of Obamacare.

Wish you the best of luck with these fucks in power!

As for the original post...i think thats way too simplified. If people were that simple life would be...a breeze. mystic and Warrior...what about idiot and coward? There are a lot more of those around these days I would say and you can buy me lunch any time
