What a crock of mudslinging. "Throw a dart in the direction of any Republican and you've got someone fine decent and upstanding." ??? Really?? I am NOT a Republican, and more proud of that every day.
I'm truly sorry you feel that way. I thought by your earlier posts you might have had a break threw. YOu know with all the dynamite or was it gasoline.

Folks, I gave a knee-jerk reaction to your post, without really preparing an answer.
I believe your statement about "throwing a dart in the direction of" applies to most Americans. My friends and neighbors are Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Baptists, Catholics, Jews, Atheists, Liberals, Conservatives, Drinkers, Smokers, Tee-totalers, Young and old, and- they are all good people, and we all get along well. We all want better educations for our (grand)kids, we all need to be able to buy groceries and pay the electric bill, and we all need to be able to afford an Elio.
So, it kinda ruffles my gray old feathers to see a person or group, whether that group is any of the above listed or not, be castigated or ostracized because their beliefs, practices, or lack thereof differ from others.
I totally respect your right to believe as you wish, but take it personally when I see denigration of others.
Love and Peace to you from an old Liberal hillbilly that cares a LOT about his neighbors- all of them.

Well said. and only through mutual respect can we discourse. I remain convinced that Hillary in most people's minds is the product of a Media blitz campaign to hide, promote and discourage any real knowledge of who Hillary really is. My greatest hope is that we finally disband or de-tooth and replace national media with a burst of more reputable reporting like http://www.drudgereport.com/. Thanks to the free flow of the internet.

I would have thought you living right next to Arkansas would have heard the horror stories leaking of the long list of close in Hillary and bill supporters going sour with their Scrupleless behavior. Once again the press is defenseless for not reporting this stuff. Then compounding their dereliction by contriving and out and out lying about conservatives. Case in point. What do you really know about the tea party? God help you if all you have is the press to rely on. Not here, but I'll gladly pm you a list of soured supporters if you want. Sure the repubs have got their share. I will gladly join you in rooting them out. If this game of elections ever takes a real turn towards accountability Mr. and Mrs Clinton are in deep deep do do. LOL

I just do not have the will power to stay out of this and keep my
mouth shut.

For all of the politically correct bleeding hearts, I have
one thing to say, thank you for the current state of affairs
this country finds itself in.

Never before have we been the complete laughing stock of the
rest of the world nor lacked the stones to change it.

The mainstream, drive by media has been carefully orchestrating
the liberal agenda to a near the tipping point in the history of this
great nation. If you even care to know the truth of this statement,
simply check the validity of the attached list and then get back to me.

Our children will inherit a country where we no longer Pray or recite
the Pledge of Allegiance in school, where thugs are eulogized, where
terrorists and other illegal immigrants are welcomed with open arms
and decent law abiding citizens are denied their Constitutional First and
Second Amendment Rights. A country where the President declares
Illegal Executive Powers and writes his own laws to destroy our borders.

Where political candidates are openly funded by terrorist nations and Christians and Jews are considered to be more dangerous than Muslim Extremists. We are now a country where our brilliant Imperial leader makes arms deals with nations that chant "death to America" while denigrating long time allies like Isreal.

The "American Dream", that so many millions came legally to this
country for, will go away to be replaced with the doctrine of the
"Government Dole" where the Imperial leadership will provide and
"Rule". Socialism is on it's way here, it's been so successful for so
many other countries that our Liberal leadership has decided to
change our system and protect us from the dreaded Capitalism.

A country where unconscionable ethnic prejudices are replaced with
entitlements instead of education and fostering of real equality, where
family values and pride of accomplishment is replaced with government
hand outs. Where real heroes like Dr Martin Luther King, who so nobly
gave all for true freedom, are replaced by the likes of Al Sharpton.
Where true American heroes, our Veterans, are forgotten and their
decades old memorials disrespected. Instead we praise lechers like Biden,
hoodlums like K West and thieves like Clinton, (pick one).

I am breathlessly awaiting your righteous indignation.
Nothing personal, just saying.



If you want to understand why the mainstream media is so in love with the Obama administration, this can in part be explained by the fact that a number of big shots who control levers of media power actually do love high-placed officials within the Obama administration. By blood and through marriage, there is more than just a shared belief in left-wing politics that ensured the American media became a mouthpiece for the Obama administration.
David Rhoades, the current president of CBS News, is the brother of Ben Rhoades, a White House national security advisor. If Ben’s name sounds familiar, that is likely due to his reported role in the editing of the now infamous Benghazi talking points.

Claire Shipman, a senior national correspondent at ABC News, is married to no other than Jay Carney, the White House Press Secretary.

If those ties between the Obama White House and ABC News aren’t disturbing enough, the president of ABC News, Ben Sherwood, is brother to Dr. Elizabeth Sherwood-Randall, a special advisor to Barack Obama.

Virginia Moseley is a CNN Vice President and Washington Bureau Chief married to Tom Nides, a Deputy Secretary of State under Barack Obama.

What is especially interesting is that three of the White House officials listed here, who are related in some way to mainstream media big shots, have ties to the Benghazi scandal. Tom Nides is at State, Ben Rhoades was part of the talking point debacle, and Jay Carney spent over a week repeatedly making false claims about terrorists not being behind the September 11th anniversary attack on our diplomatic outpost.

This might help to explain why the media spent the better part of a month in the run up to the election blasting Mitt Romney for his comments on Benghazi as opposed to the Obama Administration for their bungling and lying about Benghazi.

I get goose bumps with all this warm and fuzziness. But eventually we have to get back to acquiring and discerning factual realities. And there is the buggar of it. We must start by weening ourselves from all the hypnotics and vanities of "feelgoodism" politics and stand in the glaring light that someone is really effed up in their thinking and facts gathering. Here's a good start;
How many know that Eric Holder is criminally prosecutable for either allowing or fostering the plot to force local Arizona gun dealer to dump without records thousands of assault weapons into the hands of the Mexican drug cartels. (Fast and Furious) And that, had it not this been exposed Eric and you- know-who planned to blame and expose supposed irresponsible local gun dealers. The entire ruse was to build a case for more regulated gun ownership and sales. Indeed one of the Os pet peeves.
Now when we finally get a new Attorney General with ethics they will bring investigation an charges to Eric Holder and all the way to Big O.
What in the heck was I thinking here?
How many know that Eric has hand picked his replacement. Eric's wife and Loretta Lynch were the only two members in the first Black Woman's sorority back in their Harvard years. Now for those who try to make me out as a republican, I think we aught string up every last Republican who votes to approve her as the New Attorney General.
