Unfortunately, we are suffering in an increasingly acrimonious political climate - the fact that the Republicans can be so downright nasty as to wring any joy or hope out of Obama's presidency is staggering. People are flocking to purveyors of negativity in such distressing fashion that they have managed to blame the President for everything that is wrong in America. Why are we allowing such collective amnesia?
The fact that we have an opinion (in the guise of news) channel that can claim number one status because there are so many followers of its relentless negativity should make us all shudder. Yet, they are making inroads and we will regret this when we start to vote all of these haters into office come November. Because, their supporters will show up in droves, the rest of us will not and by apathy allow it to happen.
There may be many things wrong with America but allowing a culture of hate and by extension allowing the political party that brought us the last not so wondrous decade to return should bring us pause.
