I just don't see how we can all get along.
Obama has bent over backwards to try to get along with these people and only gets hate in return.

We have lived through a decade where all the facts refute everything Republicans stand for.

Given all of that we have a win/win.... OBL is taken out, yet the Republicans refuse to allow a win based upon pettiness and hatred.

Sometimes there are very few areas where you can find common ground, and we just witnessed one, yet 30%+ of the population refuses to accept it.

4. Agree
The Republicans have made coarseness, pettiness and rudeness so normal and common.
Graciousness is something to be attacked.
Our only hope is if circumstances expose their antics for what they are. I have been heartened to see Palin and Trump shown the door and their words are actually analyzed for a change.

5. You can't
'These people' are around half the usa population. What are you planning to do to them? Torture them till they turn dem?
Change their minds by reasoned discussion?

You get along by one person at a time learning to see the shades of grey.

7. That's because we can't get along
As long as conservatives are trying to destroy our country we can never get along.
