I understand your frustration. However, such hyperbole is not a good tool to further your case. As I see it, we need to understand that a great number of our current “journalists” received their education in universities where the liberal/progressive bent of the faculty is overwhelming. THAT must be changed. Real journalists must get back to a more objective reporting of the news.

In all university classes....students should be able to convincingly argue both sides of any issue. In the earliest universities... a degree of *Master* was awarded to those who were able to do this well. Higher education has almost completely lost the accurate understanding of what it means to be EDUCATED.

For four years we have been bombarded with maudlin praises of the strange and buffoonish Michelle Obama - how beautiful, how smart, how caring, what a great mother, a great wife, a great gardener, great set of guns, impeccable taste, snappy dresser, yada, yada, yada.

How many times have we heard Michelle campaigning for Obama, lecturing us on what a great man he is and how anyone who cannot see that is pretty stupid?

Now we have two beautiful ladies who actually do have some manners, common sense, and a sense of decorum. Two ladies who dress appropriately - not like refuges from a band of Hottentots. Two ladies who speak in loving terms of their husbands, two men incidentally, who through their own efforts and hard work, have actually accomplished something in life their wives can legitimately praise.

And so the nastiness starts. As the Obama forces work feverishly to personally destroy Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, their auxiliary and slobbering media will do their best to destroy Mrs. Romney and Mrs. Ryan.

I grew up on a little rural lot sandwiched between farms. I don't think I wore shoes until I was 6, and I never watched TV until I went to school. Heaven was playing hide-and-seek in the tall corn, or fishing for crappies in a stream meandering through an old cow pasture. Food came from the garden or the butcher, not from a box.

I might as well have grown up on Mars as far as most of the people that I meet are concerned.

:) My dairy farmer neighbor was a sweet, old guy. He winked and said, “howdy boys” to me and another neighbor kid. We protested that we were girls. He said,”well you’re wearing overalls, you must be boys.” He also told us the brown cows gave chocolate milk. He never yelled at us for playing in the corn or in his hay barn, and encouraged us to enjoy helping in his grain harvest. I was 4 or 5 when he died and that was the first time I think I knew real loss. He’s been a lifetime hero.

He sounds like a jewel. My neighbor was an orchard grower, back when that meant that the local boys got $0.50 a bushel come harvest time. So we lved him, but I would have loved him anyway. He was about 175 years old and looked like he’d been hewn out of the heartwood of an old tree. But he loved to talk, even to a little kid. I learned my numbers riding on his lap on his old Farmall tractor (I wanted to read the guages, so he had to teach me), and he taught me how to identify trees and apples. He must have had a hundred kinds of apples! I’ve never heard of most of them since. He died when I was a teenager, and his son pushed out the old orchard the same year to make room for corn. :’-(

I did not know this. When did Laura Bush call anyone “sexist”?

Well don’t hold your breath waiting for Moochelle to get up at the DNC convention and rattle off all of Barry’s wonderful deeds. The guy has never committed an unselfish act in his 51 years.

His one and only crowning acheivement was was getting a majority of voters to buy into his made up life and identity and overlook his hokey pokey birth certificate, the fact that his father was not even a US citizen and all of his muzzie, commie friends and mentors.

Compared to Mitt Romney Barack Obama or whoever his is looks pretty pathetic. In fact compared to most Americans he looks pretty pathetic.

Even Michael Moore recently said that he thinks everyone should start practicing saying President Romney.

On 30 July 2012, Moir made headlines in The Netherlands when she called Dutch cyclist Marianne Vos "some bitch from Holland" after she beat Lizzy Armitstead in the Olympic Women's road race and won the gold medal.

I was blessed to grow up in the Midwest next to a dairy farm and with a vegetable garden every year.

With all that natural fertilizer close at hand you could have grown carrots as large as 100 gal LP tanks.
