Perhaps most importantly is the fact that we've become multicultural. By it's very nature, a multicultural society isn't going to agree on anything.<br /><br />But right now, at this moment, our biggest problem is probably our leadership. Obama was very ungracious from the first moment of his presidency. He abused GWB at the inauguration and never looked back. The "I won" attitude has defined this presidency.<br /><br />Obama looks at his opponents as enemies. I don't think any other president has done that during my lifetime. Clinton did a lot of damage, but I don't think he had the antipathy for mainstream America that Obama does. And as divisive as GWB apparently was, he certainly didn't carry that antipathy.<br /><br />Obama vs bitter clingers, Obama vs the GOP, Obama vs Limbaugh, Obama vs SCOTUS, Obama vs Trump, Obama vs the VRWC... Obama treats a vast swath of America as his <i>enemy</i>.<br /><br />I can't think of any big Democrat who would be antagonizing America as doggedly as Obama. <br /><br />I wish Hillary had beaten BHO.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00287687109539456039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2414290528721230538.post-73310723903892548912011-05-05T01:32:47.869-04:002011-05-05T01:32:47.869-04:00Just checking on you, JACG.

Thinkers, citizen journalists, activists in our own quiet way. Just knowing people like you, Kid, Teresa, TCL, Fuzzy, Debbie and everybody else gives me hope every day for our nation. <br /><br />And oddly enough, the news media is quick to pick up our memes.Opus #6https://www.blogger.com/profile/02063785617333740178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2414290528721230538.post-11387019362679087032011-05-04T16:11:07.923-04:002011-05-04T16:11:07.923-04:00You can't fix stupid, which is pretty sad.

There are a lot of good hard working people out there, but they are unimportant to the people in the media or government. Our values are no longer represented in Congress or in the media. If we have any chance of turning things around, we must continue to get the message out any way we can and hope that there are still some adults that are willing to do the right thing for this country. I have seen in Iraq and on some websites, but the truth is that as long as Trump is anything but a joke then we aren't going to see any real change in 2012. We needed a strong leader with a clear message of severe spending cuts and smaller government because the message is going to have to fight the seniors and the welfare state all at once. No such leader has appeared, so we will get more smoke and mirrors from Congress until one arrives. 2016 is a long time to wait and how much more damage is the Joker going to do before than. I pray daily for a hero, but none has come.Sandy Salthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11201515464176920513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2414290528721230538.post-5860682884327267862011-05-04T09:08:48.789-04:002011-05-04T09:08:48.789-04:00"Mutual acceptance" means accepting that..."Mutual acceptance" means accepting that people don't share all of your views.

But now that I say that for the elleventieth time, I wonder if it wasn't always this way, and our ability to see it has just improved immensely. Internet. Tweets. Reality shows. et al.<br /><br />But I still believe the country has gotten way more juvenile. The libs think everything and anything is good when their man is in the House, and vice-versa.<br /><br />Not to depress you further, but if we don't get someone in power who will start canceling out the liberal control over everything from education to energy policy we're not accomplishing anything. Gag me with 'spending cuts' and 'fiscal responsibility'. Eventually the dems will be back in power and will simply pick up where they left off. Which is what has been happening since LBJ and has gotten us to this point with small intermissions and some successes along the way (like Reagan) but no turn back on the commie agenda.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287399775879832602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2414290528721230538.post-38104888662344465632011-05-03T13:25:43.072-04:002011-05-03T13:25:43.072-04:00Opus:

It couldn't be that people were just celebrating according to the right. The vast majority of the people there were college students. One of the schools is less than a 15 minute walk away. The others are a very short drive. DC is a small city. They have flash pillow and snow ball fights that get crowds the same size just as quickly. <br /><br />We have lost all civility in this country. <br /><br />The internet has allowed people to hide behind a screen and make up ridiculous things that gullible people just follow without using the brain God gave them.Just a conservative girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11982406297072353275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2414290528721230538.post-19152186726681793342011-05-03T12:00:45.390-04:002011-05-03T12:00:45.390-04:00We all have days when we feel like this.

We are never going to all "just get along". That is not human nature.<br />Politicizing OBL's death was inevitable.

George Washington had a big problem on his hands dealing with those two and their radically different views of politics and finance/economy. <br /><br />We continue to fight those battles today. Yes we disagree. But hopefully we can sway and have swayed already to a point the great center of this nation to a greater adherence to the Constitution. That there was a huge swing toward conservatism in 2010 is hopeful. <br /><br />Another thing, the DC crowd was rumored to be astroturfed, at least to a point. They showed up a little too fast, all those kids. So it might have been weighted a bit differently than the usual Tea Party group you are used to.<br /><br />Don't let the turkeys get you down, OK?
