actually the biggest problem this country has is the fact the republican party today is what the democrats were 20 years ago, the democrats today are what the liberals were 20 years ago, and the liberals today are what the fringe lunatics were 20 years ago. the 2 party system works when both are opposite ends of the spectrum to balance each other out. the problem is they are more alike than different in today's age.
i am under no illusion this country is in great shape, but i am also not under an illusion that because of some lunatics we are all the exact same. saying we are all racist because of something like watching a hollywood form of entertainment is the same as saying all people in africa has aids because of watching the travel channel or that all muslims hate everyone that is not of their faith and wants to kill us all. you painted the entire country with a broad brush and that is what i am talking about.
" You all are very rude "
1. you don't know me or anything about me so how can you say anyone is rude, including me. yes, there are some very rude people, but i've met just as many nice people as i have rude.
" you murder innocent people in Iraq "
1. not sure how i have killed anyone there since i've never been in a fight there.
" you are terrible with money, take no responsibility for your actions "
1. i'm sorry show me my income and my bills and show me where i can improve. i don't have to give them since you already know i'm bad with my money so you must know the exact numbers.
" you are racist "
1. another jump to say everyone is when you just have left winger mentalities there that everyone is a racist. you would have to ask my mixed wife, of 12 years, just how racist i am.
those are broad generalizations and that is why i say that is not right leaning mentality. right leaning mentalities do not paint everyone into a generalization. yes, there are people that fit into each of those, but not everyone does. there are people from every nation on the face of this earth that fit into most of those, but you don't see me calling them those false generalizations claiming they ae the entire country. what else would i expect when someone quotes cnn as a source of fact to back up arguments. you are just as well bringing up the daily beast or huffington post blogs up for proof.
