Yeah, OK.
But I'm still confused about your accusation that my viewpoint and/or myself are somehow emotionally immature. Until this time of idealism comes (assuming that it does, and I tend to be optimistic) there is nobody that I owe my trust to. Particularly in politics. In fact, after this time of idealism, I STILL don't owe anybody my trust. It is mine to do with what I please. And acknowledging that each person is responsible for themselves hardly seems emotionally immature.
In fact, what seems emotionally immature is involving yourself in other people's business without their invitation. I get a sense that there is an undertone in your message that I am somehow emotionally cutting people off by expecting people to take responsibility for themselves.
I think the misunderstanding was that you were thinking more politics wise and I was thinking more personal relationship wise. My feelings being that as omniresponsible as you want everybody to be for their own experience they are still intrinsically intertwined with one another and responsible for each other's as well there is responsibility in being a (man) in our society.

Elizabeth Warren is the Huckabee of the left.
I trust Obama to do exactly what I expect, and I think Boehner's a pretty swell guy.
Elizabeth is going to keep the sharks on the balls of their feet.....I don't know who's watching your oompa loompa
