You can argue that eastern liberals run the mainstream media but Fox News just gave a huge donation to the Republican party.

I will agree that I am left of you but very right of left wing of the Democratic party. Do I vote for Republicans....in some cases yes. Can I vote for Ken Buck in Colorado...Hell NO! Do I want to vote for Bennett...No in fact I voted for the other guy in the primary. Will I vote for Bennett, the ballot is on my dining room table unopened.

Now I have had people, on this site, tell me they don't believe anything from the Huffington post. I distrust anything from Fox ....(Beck, Hannity and Ingram esp)

I respect strong women who make a difference in the world. I admire Eleanor Roosevelt for what she did to foster civil rights. Her simple act of flying in a plane piloted by a Tuskegee airman was courageous.

How can you support violence against anyone....what made that women a threat this time as opposed to the previous times she had done the same thing? Was she the only one going toward Rand Paul? The amount of physical force was uncalled for....the head stomp a case in point.

I react to the label because conservatives use it to brand me as something bad or evil which I am not.

Why don't we talk immigration......
