A Refreshing Perspective on Conservative Politics and Policies
April 3rd 2010 21:11
Even though most Americans may not be aware of the deeper details and insights of the current political climate, they are aware that it is in a season of change. They are also aware that these changes are affecting different people in different ways. Some reactions are going to the extreme of totally tuning out the political world with a sense of hopeless apathy. Others have a fixation with the Cable News Networks and the talk shows that is leading them to become angry and aggressive toward anyone who does not share their views.
Unfortunately, the media is feeding this frenzy with reporting that is no longer fact driven without personal interpretation. Instead, the various networks interpret and report the facts in light of their particular political perspective. It is as if the networks themselves are in campaign mode in order to draw the highest ratings. While this blog is politically to the right, there is a concentrated effort to print the facts behind the conclusions that are drawn.
Further, it is not our intention to drive the left and the right further apart. One of the elements which have served to make America great is the art of healthy dialogue which involves both the giving of our opinion and the listening of the other person’s opinion. The emotions of anger make this kind of open dialogue virtually impossible. Most Americans really do love their country….and that is something that everyone should respect be it from the right or the left.
