Yes it is. Politics itself is not bad, playing it, and pushing it over the welfare of the nation, however is. Anybody with more than an ounce of brain should be able to see that. Yet, politicians succeed, because simpletons abound to help them. Self-defeaters, as I like to call them.

No no no, politics are good. You only view it as bad or putting it first when you are having a hard time. It is easy to favor politics when you are getting your way but when the sledding gets tough it is politics fault. It is remakable to rewad the pajoratives thrown around here. It is always the other guy who is a moron. LOL.

As I stated in another post in this thread. People can disagree with Obama and not be racist. And many people who object to Obama are racist. Both those statements can be true.

As can be said of any politician or person for that matter.

And conservatives are deranged about Obama over a birth certificate, his school records, his preacher, a man who lived on his block, his wife's bare arms, helping GM employees not all lose their jobs, taking action to prevent the banking system collapse (remember no one getting credit?), trying to turn the economy around, and, oh yeah, a speech to inspire kids to do well in school.

Just in case someone skips to the end I want them to read this again.
Thank you for being normal! I'm not alone!

Honestly, this is what happens from severe brainwashing via fear and hate-mongering. I've seen it happen with religion as well (raised Seventh Day Adventist. I saw people I grew up with end up in mental institutions for psychiatric evaluation because they were so brain-washed that they were sinners and were going to go to h*ll and burn for all eternity. They were literally living in terror and fear. It makes me very sad to think of those people and see what became of them. I knew them as nice, normal children....).

The propoganda and brain-washing that is coming from the extreme right-wing is downright cruel and criminal. Anyone who gets paid to disseminate so much fear and hate should be ashamed of themselves. Hope the $$millions they make is worth it to them. I would hate to have that sort of thing on my conscience.

And (if it hasn't already been said before), the saddest and most tragic part of all of this is that her child is being exposed to this. As I put in my prior post, I was exposed to a lot of religious fear-mongering growing up as a child. It's taken decades for me to regain a sense of normalcy and not fear the world as I did during my growing up years. It literally makes me sick to my stomach knowing what this child hears and sees in her home every single day. This is NOT good.
