How could having a modern day civil war in any way shape or form be beneficial to our society? It's so easy to sit back in your puter chair and wax on and on and on about how terrible things are and yet is that the intent and spirit of an "AMERICAN"? We are the GREATEST country in the world! We are at war within ourselves, so why don't we all stand up and FIGHT FOR our country, work together, find workable solutions and quit expecting everyting to go our way NO MATTER WHAT YOUR POLITICS ARE!!!!!!!
That is simple the ideological divide has gotten so wide in this country.
No matter the issue there is no common ground between the conservative and progressive camp's.
We can't sustain the road we are on something has to rip or tear.
Secondly the media is adding kindling everyday, new's is distorted to reflect the view of the network broadcasting the "news". Just look at the media's view of the Tea party and the Occupy Wall Street.
Used to be new's was reported as "And that is the way it was" you decided.
Today it is being used as a brainwashing tool to change social and political attitudes.
I agree with you on the media, the distortion on both sides just serves to fan the flames of discontent. But "we" all need to be better than that in these times of discord. The conservatives and progressives have to learn how to be big kids and "settle" from time to time, we had to as children, one doesn't always get their way. It is increasingly hard to be an independent who loves her country.
