I See Crazy People

I like to read. I will read anything in front of me at almost any time. I would rather have a great book than a stupid conversation, that's just how I am. I got my love of reading from my Mother.  It's hard not to think of her without picturing a book in her hand.  It's because of my love of reading that I try to find as many different opinions as possible. The last thing I want to emulate are the liberal folks who are astounded by an election because no one they know voted that way.
With that in mind, I read over the Huffington Post.  I usually have to steel my nerve for the trip, I know I am going to read something maddeningly stupid, I just hope it's only one or two.  No luck today.  I believe that the majority of liberals and progressives have retired to their sulking chair and are trying to piece together some sort of cohesive response besides, "Oh Yeah?.... Well, you'll see!"
More and more of the are showing all the signs of Palin Derangement Syndrome and other mental disorders.  I cannot stomach The View. I've tried three times now, and life is too short.  I cannot stand to listen to three women and Whoopie Goldberg arguing over each other, slinging mud and trying to be clever.  I cannot imagine what twisted world Joy Behar is considered an authority on anything.
I must confess, however, that I love to see her over sized mouth when it turns down in irritation. Bill O'Reilly  may be a blow hard at times, but in the spirit of the enemy of my enemy is my friend- I loved watching him on The View. Those two throwing a hissy fit and stomping off the set was priceless. Just priceless.  But back to that Huffington Crap.
Isn't there room for civil debate and polite disagreement anymore?  One thing my Dad and I could always do was keep a civil tongue in our heads when we were arguing politics.  Either those losers are paid to post what ever nonsensical thought pops into their heads or they are stupid crazy. Brace yourself, read some of it and decide for yourself. You'll thank me later.
