Debate panels are very destructive to good will and resolve Whether on CNN or Fox or any other major news show, I find debate panels to be very destructive to peoples good will. It's impossible to resolve an issue, convey a point, to the audience in 3 angry filled minutes of guests yelling at each other and host jumping in as well. Nothing constructive is accomplish, no minds are changed. All it is is a verbal boxing/fighting match and fans go into it already rooting for their side.  These 5 minute speed chess debate cycles are as silly as above fighter mocking his opponent with the girly dance. Pure entertainment, that's all it is, and it's sad that networks have reduced serious discussions to nothing more than shouting matches, all for ratings. I would never agree to go onto any of these panels unless was garunteed a full 30 minutes or more to make point. You just can't make any point that will sway anyone within the 2 minutes of time they give you on these shows with have of that spent trying to talk over the other person. All these panels do is stir up hateful resentment on both sides. And they know this, that's why they continue to facilitate it like that cause they know, the producers know, that hate and violence sells.

How do I feel about event outside of Mosque sponsored by Bikers waving American flags? I feel it will simply insure the re-election of another Democratic President. To some that may be good, to others bad, to me I don't care, simply stating what I think the consequence of such a media demonstration will produce. These bikers, waving flags, many of them outlaws, who have brutalized others, will be seen as 'Conservatives' in the general publics view. As such come next national election, this event will further help alienate potential voters from the GOP. Elections, politics, is a lot different than ratings driven tabloid, attention drawing media events. High TV ratings does not equate into votes. Hannity, Rush may have super high media ratings, but if they ran for office, would not equate into many votes. Show biz and politics are two different creatures, two different art forms. And in politics, in order to succeed, you just can sit there day after day and alienate people, insult the very people who's vote you need to win election. By these bikers, and whom ever else shows up at this draw Mohammid contest, all they're going to do now is set Islam up as being the victim. A big mistake...but then again those running event aren't politicians and could probably care the less. But now GOP will have to work extra hard to over come this image of not just hating Mexicans, but now of not hating American Muslims. These groups, including talk radio, are just making it harder and harder for GOP to win at national level. This is 2015, not 1963. Politics is not talk radio.

Dennis Hastert, former GOP speaker of the house, indicted on Federal charges This man is accused of, or got the attention of Feds for, transferring money over and over again, in large amounts without reporting it, then turns out subsequently it was to pay off long ago 'partner' to keep quiet. Now my take on it. I'm not into publically smearing anyone, just because they're of different or same party or ideology as myself. I just don't enjoy that, and to me the media can be outright demonic at times, whether going after Hillary or Bush or Cosby or Reagan or Palin or whomever. Anyone who doesn't think the media can be demonic, just wait until you mess up one day and media throws all your personal business and private affairs all over the net, and or print media. Maybe this guy, when speaker, maybe they did things I would not have liked or agreed with on political level, but still just don't enjoy seeing people long out of the lime light get so viciously portrayed in media, and used as a tool by either side. To mean that's just being mean just for mean sake. And is not consistent with any value system I have. Dems will run with it, since he was a Republican, but then, we all know, it's just a matter of time before another Dem is caught with dirty laundry as well, and then Rep's will run with it. Like a continual circle. Common sense people realize people are flawed, first and foremost, before they're anything else.

Common sense non electoral Conservatism examines each case or situation on it's on merits
In reference to the Texas pool gathering incident, after further review of situation, I'm in support of the officer.
'Teen' does not = angelic, at least not in this day and age.
And where I stay 'teens' are the ones committing some of the most viscous, senseless crimes imaginable.
Again, because this is the 'common sense' section...I have to evaluate each incident on it's on merit.
No politics, no electoral politics or ideology, just common sense.
And common sense says anyone can be dangerous, regardless of age.
And if Cop, Officer, felt he needed to pull out gun in order to establish order, than more power to him.
I like order.
Order is what allows people to prosper.
Without order you have Somalia, or Haitti or other 3rd world plumes.
Sorry, but I side with the officer in this incident.
I think they did the right thing.
After all, his own personal life matters also.
I can't fault officer for seeing value in his own life and safety.
I'm a case by case type, and in this case side with officer, teens or no teens.
Todays teens can often act outrageous and monsterous.
I side with the officer on this case here.
And sorry they had to resign.

I have no love for unruly, menacing gangster teens, they'll grow up to destroy society, offer nothing to society, don't invent anything, don't help anyone, and are like bacteria to the landscape.

I don't think people should confuse political correctness with common decency and manners, but sadly I think many do.
A decent persons aim shouldn't be to go around verbally abusing others, insulting others and then if 'other' gets upset accuse other of being 'politically correct'.
I don't know anyone, regardless of gender or party, that's open to verbal abuse.
And some of the people, TV hosts, radio hosts, who dish it out the most to others, go bizerk when tables are turned and when others verbally attack them.
To me if once can't convey an idea, uplift a healthy principle, without insulting another personally, than the person expressing the idea probably doesn't have the best intent.
The aim of a decent person shouldn't be to insult others, other wise they're not decent.
It's as if some are crying and complaining cause they can't be openly racist any more, or openly attack gays, or bash women or publically imply other stereotypical ideas about others.
Well actually they can, and do still, but if holding office or other public position, if they do, they'll have to face backlash from public.
If one wakes up everyday mad and upset that they can't sling insults at another, do to political correctness, than maybe that person should examine their own moral compass.
Insults never win people over, compliments do though, sometimes, or at least finding common non political grounds that the person 'you think you want to insult' , can agree on.

A few terms started here, now, today, that if you here used elsewhere, no where they came from.
1. Pre packaged bigotry.
2. Pre packaged assumptions about another.
3. Pre packaged political disdain towards another or group.
This is where entertainment, ratings driven, talk radio and cable TV drama news has led many, or many to do.
Disagree with them on one point, one view and suddenly now you're apart of 'The left' or 'The right' or this or that.
This is how TV/radio builds ratings, and keeps citizens divided.
It's also how politicians keep citizens divided.
And how darker, more powerful forces who control politicians keep citizens divided.
Create artificial divisions amongst the populace, keep them fighting over small meaningless differences of opinion, while not noticing complete rape of society, way of life, buy powerful wordly enterprises.
The term 'The left' is used by those who are not looking out for your best interest.
You may not understand that now, but if forward thinking, will later.
Don't be a sucker for any one else's agenda.

If I want to dismantle some ones idea or opinion I don't come at them from an angle of ideology or political party or parties, rather I go straight at their idea.
That's how artificial walls are broken down.
In other words don't 'hate' or 'despise' some one cause they're a 'leftist' or 'On the right' or this or that, a Rep or Dem.
Don't hate them for that.
Instead stay focused only on idea you're in disagreement about.
Labels are part of a strategy to keep common people divided, so that the more sinister powerful types can do their thing.

The media is wicked, and will never allow this nation to be at peace
The media is wicked, that includes all media, yes even Fox and AM talk radio shows, they're all wicked, and will never allow this nation to be at peace, why?
Cause of their need to always focus, concentrate on the 'bad', the 'worst' in humanity, as a way of attracting viewership for ratings, money and profit.
If 5000 people in building are getting along just fine, media will run to the 5001 and first person who's out of line, to report on, to high light, to create illusion of disturbance when there really is none.
The media is treacherous...
And again will never ever allow this nation to get along, will continue to stir up emotions of citizens simply for ratings and viewer ship.

Trump vs NBC
I'm on Trumps side.
NBC has decided to stand up for non citizen immigrants over citizens.
You go Donald!

Anyone upset over this, is a Fox News bred, talk radio bred individual who doesn't really have much going on in personal life The rainbow colors mean whatever you want them to. The rainbow is a natural phenomena that has occurred in nature long before man was around, and will be here long after man leaves. For people to get upset and cry, or 'feel offended' over this display, for one night, really have nothing going on in own personal life, and are led around the nose by ratings driven talk show hosts and fox. For those who are solid in their own principles and life, this display meant absolutely nothing, other than a interesting display of artful colors.. And for those who did derive happy meaning from the lights and colors, more power to ya, now lets move on. Common sense conservatism/libertarianism... (I mean wasn't it just the fake media 'right' that was saying last week how easily those on 'the left' are offended, and demand political correctness? The fact that the fake media right/ TV/ talk radio right, would be offended by rainbow colors demonstrates how hollow their words are all of the time, and how they say what they say just for TV ratings and profit)

An honest, true, non media Conservative could win the Whitehouse without ever ever bringing up the name of President Obama or Hillary Clinton in negative manner.

Those who overly use the word 'The Left', take you for a fool, need you to be a fool, so they can continue doing their deeds in political camouflageSorry, but it's true, those who routinely use the term 'The left' to describe those who are supposedly opposed to you in generic way, don't think much of your intellect or ability to reason. They basically depend on you, need for you, to be stupid, in order to receive their message or be open to it. And the message doesn't stop with politics, that's just a cover.. They're more interested in conditioning your mind to receive whatever it is they want you to receive. I never trust anyone that tells me that 'The Left' is responsible for all the bad in this nation, just like I never trust anyone that tells me that 'The Right' is totally responsible for all misery in this nation. I never trust any message or messenger that feels they must cloak their message in propaganda, cause by doing so they're assuming you're to dumb to come to proper decisions on your own, and so feel they must 'help scoot you along the way with tricks. More times than not, the people, or person or organization, or one their working for, could be 'collective powers that be', will always create a generic false enemy as a distraction. People wonder why regardless of who's elected, who's in Congress, the Senate, nation keeps moving in same direction...duh In other words 'continue to blame it all on 'The left' while we continue to shove it up their a__'s, and they'll never suspect us' But to the simpletons they need their daily dose of 'The left is your enemy', from the usual puppet suspects. But to those more keen and perceptive, you can sense it's all a form of trickery. Go ahead and root for your candidate, but as I wrote earlier on here during mid term election victory by GOP, nothing will change, nothing. Nothing will change predicted ahead of time on zone back in Nov of 2014<<< link in red, hit link if you doubt the prophetic ability of the Zone. The zone wasn't wrong then, nor will the zone be wrong about nothing changing regardless of who wins election. They, dark forces, depend on simpletons to continue to blame each other for why things aren't going the way they should. Takes the heat off of them...and if found out who 'them' was...that coalition, most would refuse to believe it.

Donald Trump was not being 'racist' in his remarks towards MexicansDonald Trump, call him what you want, but he did not make any racist remarks in regards to Mexican immigrants. His comments were based on Culture and habits, not the tone of ones skin. A honest, or least educated person will admit this. For one1. Mexico, like America, is not a 'race', it's a nation filled with a variety of peoples with mixed ancestry. 2. Do people realize that Spain, the European colony that settled or conquered Mexico, is lilly white? .png/370px-Spanish_people_-_mosaic_(2).png) The original people of Spain are lilly white, and most of the ruling class in Mexico is still lilly white. Unlike Europeans who settled North America, the white population of Spain interbred with local Indian populations, and integrated the whole population into society, as such many today actually think that the Spaniards were, or are originally brown skin to dark tan. It would be like someone saying 'All Americans are bad', and then being accused of being racist for making such a comment.But like Mexico, America is not a 'race' or one color or shade, it's a variety of people living under local and Federal Governance, and within that Governance there's micro cultures that exist. Donald Trump was not being racist in his comments, he was commenting on a culture of corruption and crime, not ethnicity! The only thing Donald Trump is guilty of is being against criminals, not people of color. In order to maintain credibility you have to go after people for the right reasons, not make up fictitious arguments against them and assume others are to dumb to see right through the fiction. You loose credibility amongst the thinking when that is done. Be right and fair always, never use trickery to get people to agree with you, and in the long run they'll respect you a lot more, regardless of political sway. .

The people destroying this nation aren't made up of some fictitious group known as 'The left', the destroyers are composed of many, with different intent
The worst injustice talk radio hosts like Hannity and Limbaugh and Laura and Savage and Levin ect, do is to keep blaming this fictitious group 'The Left' to blame all social ills on.
That is such a rouge, and keeps people blind, but show ratings up.
In truth, the people destroying this nation are composed of many different coalitions working together, with slightly different motivations.
But money being chief of them.
Un like talk radio hosts, I'll say what common people already know, and that is the higher up one gets in society and scale and wealth, the less ideology matters
Doesn't matter if one is a Dem or Rep or other, after a while money, how to make more of it, becomes it's own political party.
And this idea that a billionaire Rep would actually care about 'small town values' is a myth perpetrated by talk radio hosts to keep their audience dialed in. (cause every good show needs a villain, and 'The Left', make a convient generic villain for those to lazy to think)
Every time I hear talk radio hosts blame all ills on 'The Left' I shake head in discuss, cause I know even they know that isn't true.
Nation is ruled equally by Dems and Rep, sometimes Dems win, sometimes Rep's win, yet nothing ever changes.
Go inside some of these chambers where secret laws are made and passed, and you think you're only going to find elected Dems there?
If you believe that than Rush Limbaugh and others have really done a job on you.
But hey, just keep on blaming 'The Left' for everything that ails this nation, and by doing so allow the coalition of united politicians of all parties, to continue to do what they do without being held accountable.
Don't believe me?
Watch how nothing will change regardless of which President is elected next.
Watch how if a Rep President elected, how nothing will change, and watch how cronny talk radio hosts will continue blaming it all on 'The Left'.
Some of you get what I'm saying, others I don't know.
Others just want to hear 'All Republicans goooooood, and every single Democrat baaaaaad'...
Oh well.
