This election year like all others before it has those on both sides who believe that their views are the only views. Some of those will go on to not only challenge views but continue into what can only be termed as hate.
When people who have differing views result to name calling one has to wonder what kind of person lays beneath that view. There's a new right wing foundation in the United States that believes that anyone that doesn't believe in their way is a "libtard".
These people not only attack liberals but those of any orientation that is not their own. Gays are deemed disgusting. Liberals are said to have mush as brains. One blog site goes as far as saying the an infrared scan of a leftist brain shows all the kinetic energy of a tub of refrigerated Jello.
Somehow these people can't get a grasp that not everyone thinks that the America that is now isn't beloved by the world at large. That opposition in the "War on Terror" has valid foundations. That wars that stand on lies are unjust.
Most liberals support the troops. They don't however support a war that hasn't shown positive advancements for either the United States or the countries that are involved.
Liberals don't blast other religions for the most part. Those who have belief systems are not told they are wrong to practice their beliefs unless it oversteps boundaries that would take away the same rights for others. They are often more open to the truth that while the United States has always had a majority of Christians it was not based on simply Christian beliefs. That the founding fathers did not mean for the country to become a single religion nation. That those who are freethinkers have as much rights in the nation as those who are Baptist, Mormon, Muslim, Hindi, etc.
The coming election will deal with the issues that are tearing this country apart. There's a war that is bankrupting the country and killing soldiers at every turn. Health care is in the toilet. Personal freedoms are already flushed and in the septic tank. Religious freedoms will be next.
It seems it's more important to make sure there's money for a bomb instead of a child being about to go to the doctor. It is more important to blast one religion over another than to find a way to table peace.
The Conservatives have been running the United States for the past eight years.
Has your life improved?
Just maybe the jello brained liberals may have some answers.
