Common Sense
People don't seem to use common sense very much these days. The powers that be have turned Americans into non-thinking, talking point spewing, neighbor hating ditto heads.
Both sides, and of course there can only be two sides, are acting like idiots. I mean, if anyone really thinks they are making a difference or making America better by hating half of the population, the half that is on the "other" side, they're stoopid. And stoopid people are the most easliy led into throwing common sense out the window.
Liberals out there....do you actually hate conservatives just because they're conservatives? Do you assume that conservatives all think the same because of the groupthink on the net?
Conservatives, do you hate Liberals because of their beliefs? Do you think they're all a bunch of whiners based on their participation on blogs and such?
Would anyone from either side make their political decisions based on common sense rather than party lines?
Remembering of course, only those who actually speak up for whatever reason are heard.
I'm sure you don't think most gay men run around half naked covered in body glitter just because it's the image you are shown by the media.
Anyone actually brave enough to dialogue?

It is the extreme right (I won't characterize them as "conservatives") that have destroyed common sense and made hate the norm.
The sad fact is that appropriating the name "conservative" they have tricked conservatives into going along with them.
Don't talk about the "extreme left", you don't have one with any voice in your country. What the extreme right calls "left" is pretty much the centre in the rest of the civilized world.
It is wonderful being us, isn't it?
