What has Happened to Compromise. We are divided as a country.

posted by Persephone713

I can only take so much bantering and bickering and blaming this person and blaming that person. There is plenty of blame to go around if it goes to the right person. I am appalled In America, and the campaigning that the " Republican Hopefuls" are doing. How far and how low will someone go is the only pergunta left unanswered. I am not proud of America. There I said it. I had higher hopes for my future kids and my own generation. This is the ano 2011. We have 4 months until 2012 and there are still people that are racial bigots and religious zealots forcing their views on the people of the United States of America. WE SHOULD NOT be divided because of color, those days are way over. If you judge a person on the color of their skin have SHALLOW tattooed to your forehead. Same with religion. cristianismo is not the Almighty religion. Republicans pride themselves on " We need to go por the constitution". We'll then righties do as you preach. The constitution says freedom to practice whatever religion you wish, or no religion at all. The Civil rights movement accomplished por lincoln and finished por Martin Luther King should have stopped the racial hatred. Who cares if someone is white, black, purple, red, pink, blue, green. And then they want the best for the American people, and have two women out there speaking for us, but yet we cannot have Planned Parenthood or Abortion clinics. I am not saying, have these options just for the hell of it. It is for the safety of those women and young girls who need it. Ladies do you really want a bunch of old men, making decisions about your uterus and vagina? Blunt question, but that is what it comes down to. Or we should thank our lucky stars Miss Christine O'Donnell is not in the news much she wanted to make masturbation illegal. HOW? I have no clue. The Republicans want small government and dont want to be told what to do, but have no problem controlling other people's lives. Im pro-choice, and I was Roman Catholic-I no longer go to church currently cause I cant stand the churches telling me what to think. And should the rich be coddled with their money, when they are the smallest percentage in terms of class? Middle Class citizens are the ones who suffer, because we work for min. wage, while the corporations, and big bosses get paid the big bucks and can take the vacation times whenever. And I also ask...where were all you strong-opinionated people from 2000-2008 when President arbusto, bush was blowing our Surplus plus borrowed money out his bunda on two wars, a Gitmo detention center and spies trying to find Weapons of Mass Destruction that were never there? You honestly and stupidly believe Barack Obama racked up this big of a deficit in not even 3 yrs. WOW, that must be some pretty strong dope you guys smoke. I do not watch the news often, or listen to public talk radios, if I do-I make my own judgment. You attack the Middle Class and Poor seguinte election, the future will not get any easier and brighter. Money is not everything, in fact it destroys people, turns them into monsters. There are mais important things than money.

Shepard14 ~~~We have 4 months until 2012 and there are still people that are racial bigots and religious zealots forcing their views on the people of the United States of America. WE SHOULD NOT be divided because of color, those days are way over. If you judge a person on the color of their skin have SHALLOW tattooed to your forehead. Same with religion. Christianity is not the Almighty religion. Republicans pride themselves on " We need to go by the constitution". We'll then righties do as you preach. The constitution says freedom to practice whatever religion you wish, or no religion at all~~~ What makes you think that the Republican's are trying to force christianity down people's throats? I watched the debates and they never said that people SHOULD be christian or else. The way you phrased that statement tells me, you think that all Republicans are bible thumping idiots. Well, they aren't. It's these types of lies that the liberal media is giving you and you believe it! Wthout even researching what the other side "actually" believes in. And what is with this "I am so tired of racial bigots and religous zealots." How can you, as a grown person, have that much ignorance?! If you don't like what people are saying, don't bad mouth the entire party... I guarantee you it's not just Republicans. . . The reason why I keep making references to the fact that you are badmouthing Republicans, is you keep coming back to them after nearly every point you make. . . If I am wrong, please tell me, because I would hate to be sitting here having a conversation on the wrong topic... It seems like you and I are polar opposites when it comes to politics and world issues... who knows, under different circumstance, you and I might actually get along :) We can only hope lol And I want you to know, as much as I bicker with you, I do not think you a bad person :P

Persephone713 As much as you wont believe me. I am not a media follower. I do not follow anything. I have never ever been a follower. Even trends. I dont like it, I wont buy it, read it, fall for it. Ipods? NOPE. Facebook? NOPE. Myspace? NOPE. Twitter? NOPE. Twilight? NOPE. I could go on. Even the news channels you would consider " Liberal" I watch, but I make up my own mind. Same with the internet. The Bush Administration and the comments from Perry, Limbaugh, Cantor, Fox News reps, Palin, Bachmann, opinion articles in my local news paper- are enough to tell me that people are still trying to push their " GOD " views on others and are racial. I hear people talking about President Obama calling him a F***ing N******. The " N" word is extinct. As for Gay people- Michele Bachmann and her husband run a center that " cures" homosexuals. Hmmm...they should find a cure for stupidity instead.
