5. Something tells me ...
that this country is not nearly as divided as the MSM and the GOP want us to believe. I think the vast majority of Americans are reasonable people. It's the politicians that make everything black and white and that's probably because it's the extremists who control the GOP.

We've had the red vs. blue, liberal vs. conservative, Democratic vs. Republican crap rammed down our throats for so long that we all just take it for granted. The propaganda machine has created a great divide - or the appearance of a great divide - but I can't help but wonder if it's not 50/50, as they've made us believe. Perhaps it's more like 75/25 and that 25% is running the propaganda machine.

Just a thought ...
