This Blog was created to chronicle our travels in Mexico but has since morphed into something else entirely. Our periodic Mexico travels are still in here but if that is why you came here, you will have to dig a little to get to it. Try searching the Blog Archive in the right hand column.
Wow, formulating an opinion from a tv entertainer.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to America !
As opposed to what? The talking heads on FOX?
DeleteMichael (below) is right. I have decided to accept anonymous comments but if you want to be seriously considered in the debate, sign your name at the bottom. Otherwise it is just spam.
DeleteMr Anonymous, why didn't you leave your name? "Even the deer were rolling their eyes" Good one Croft!
ReplyDeleteI loved that show!!
ReplyDeleteCommon sense used to be common but now seems to be waning in the U.S.
For some reason science and truth don't work for many citizens these days. They just don't like reality and would prefer something different.
Bill Maher show is the BEST had me laughing to tears.
Romney alone may not be a problem, however the same neo-cons who manipulated Bush are wringing their hands and can't wait to slide in behind him. With all the turmoil in the middle east, the last thing we need now is this pack of reactionaries taking us into more wars. This is the same group who ignore how the billions in cost of Bush's wars devastated our economy.
ReplyDeleteTrue words, Bill, so true. And your use of the word reactionaries is astute.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing that, Croft! I sent it to all my Right Wing friends and family. They will hate it! Great!
ReplyDeleteHey Croft, Good to read your political posts.
ReplyDeleteI'm in total agreement, but I hold the caviat that I too get my opinions confirmed from the likes of Bill Maher, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Rachael Maddow, and the others at MSNBC. I am aware of Fox but only see excepted clips that are played on Jon Sewart's Daily Shgow and the like.
Two things: I think that I am like most people who tend to follow what "news" confirms their own bias, so I don't really give the other side much of a chance. Secondly, I sometimes wonder why I get so fired up about the political scene in the US when I am not a US citizen. Down here in Paamul, there are quite a few ex-pat Americans who are clearly Republican. I have decided to keep my opinions to myself.
The US elections sure are a Big Show, and make our Canadian politics, politicians and commentators look so tame and lifeless. I catch the CBC News political round table "At Issue" from time to time, and while Andrew Coyne and Chatal Hebert have some interesting things to say, they are so low-key and measured.
Politics, in general, gets me depressed. The whole Super Pack circus, and my obserevation that most people can be so easily manipulated by their fears and paranoia, makes me sad.
So back to Bill, Jon, and Stephen. At least they make me laugh.
