This may be a futile effort...
Does anyone know of an American political debate/discussion community on either Dreamwidth or Livejournal that even attempts to stay focused on the issues and balanced instead of ridiculing each other's parties?
I thought I would get my fix from ontd_political but after seeing them leap all over the few Republican posters because "EVERYONE IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS A BIGOT," I'm kind of sick of their bias. sf_drama is just as bad if not worse.
I've tried browsing interests, but as far as I can see most comms are based around posting articles and raging/supporting them rather than starting actual debate where the actual issues are addressed. The general immaturity of both of the above communities is a huge turn-off.
