We should all read this and then get our fingers out of our asses and begin to look at reality. We are a ways down the road to self destruction with no sign of returning sanity. http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2016/07/how-american-politics-went-insane/485570/ Edited by Stoned, Jun 27 2016, 02:22 AM.

No, not a ways down the road, we past that already and are deep into it. Too late so why bother? |

A great article, sanely thought out, well presented, undoubtedly largely accurate, and of course impossible to act upon in the US's present political climate. Ironic, isn't it? An article that will be largely ignored by the very people that most need to take it to heart largely because of the very problems it describes so well... Edited by Brewster, Jun 27 2016, 02:57 AM.

I honestly believe that, unless we start to grow up and pay attention to what really is rather than what we are told, the US will not last another 50 years and half of that will be as a state we never imagined could happen here. Look at this board. Nobody really gives a damn as to what really happened, be it fifty years ago or yesterday. Everything is spun to fit one ideology or the other. The conservatives have gone so far as to warp our history virtually in it's entirety and they don't even know, or care about that. Look at Kansas. A virtual model of all the things conservatives have preached as an economic model for decades. It is a disaster and yet the answer is more of the same and total denial. My kids may make it through. My grandson? Not a chance! |

Not to sweat, Stoned - Climate Scientists assure us that long before that happens, the entire World will have permanently shifted its priorities, for good. And of course, our gridlocked governments will never get over their political mud wrestling soon enough to do anything anywhere near enough to make any real difference. So will we drown in political wrangling, or will Mother Nature step in and make the whole discussion moot? It's rather like asking whether you'd rather be hung or shot... |

We will be just fine if we can hold off the liberals from ruining this country. Brew of course had to get in another climate lie. |

Right Wing Dictionary: LIE: (n) A truth that a Right Winger doesn't like. No proof that what was said is not true is necessary. Edited by Brewster, Jun 27 2016, 06:27 AM.
