Catfight Fever

Let me just start with the fact that I am not in agreement with Ted Nugent.  I also find his way of voicing his opinions to be disgusting and ignorant.

But, seriously, why do liberals care what he says?  Why did they whine about Hank Williams, Jr's comments about President Obama?  He seriously lost his job because of those comments?  I personally think he is wrong, but really?

Or to flip the coin, the recent comments by Hilary Rosen, who only by hearing from the blowback is apparently a Democratic pundit.  She said that Ann Romney has never done a day of work in her life.  To which everyone lost their ever living mind.

Is this really the point that we have gotten to in this country where outrage needs to be thrown around at every comment whether it is actually controversial or not.  Hilary Rosen's point was not even that controversial, but a little spin and it seems like she is saying that moms never do any work.  But she herself is a mom!

This bickering is not a real thing.  Please understand this.  It is pumped up fodder on the parts of all news networks, no matter their political bent.  Its like the gossipers in high school who conflate offhand comments in the hope of a fight breaking out.  Are you not entertained?

How is any of this news - or noteworthy at all.  Conservatives don't like Obama.  Liberals don't like Romney.  Yup.  That's great.

Can we have the election already?

Or maybe try to figure out some of the problems we face today.  Yelling about Obamacare as being bad, does not address the issue of...what do you do with our awful state of healthcare.  Repealing the Department of Education...ok...now what?  How does this help or hurt education?

Does anyone actually have a plan out there other than tax breaks or raises on the wealthy?  Because that seems to be the central issue somehow, which to me is WAY low on my priority list.

So maybe instead of seizing on juicy words of irrelevant people (or even the relevant ones) maybe we just actually ask (and hold them to) questions about how one candidate or another actually intends to make this country better.
