Yep, from the teabagger event today...

Now I will say something rather controversial but the data supports.

Liberals don't read, and neither do conservatives... for pleasure that is. We have a pretty illiterate population, and leaders on BOTH sides take advantage of it.

Oh and when both sides do read, they read two very different realities. This does not have at all to do with the truth... forget the truth. This is a perceived reality. They are 180 from each other, and having been to more than one anti war rally, where I heard some things that had me going... WHHAAAA... and today hearing plenty of things that had me going WHAAAAAA... I can say that both sides have that problem.

Oh and it is so dramatic, that it is almost dealing with mirror images of reality. Why you cannot have a talk with a true radical on the other side. As one put it today, liberals have their ears plugged and don't want to hear.... well we have experienced the same.

So if we are to break this pattern, actually things like today, where we can mingle and not scream at each other... perhaps will start to break down the cartoon image we have of each other. If not, I was truly convinced that something ugly will happen.

Oh and yes. today the speakers were talking to the converted. and true believers. Funny thing so do ours at our rallies...

And of course speakers in the speaker circuit have also reported this. And this is a very dangerous pattern...

That is all, and this is your food for thought.

Now for the next event I NEED A HAT, and a bag to carry the Evian in... yes it has to be EVIAN... no other water would do...



And of course, that was the wrong tea party. Would you believe it? NO Earl Gray, with cream of course, and crumpets or at least scones and jelly...
