I can understand the negativity, I get that way myself sometimes. We have a marxist POTUS a senate that is in agreement, a house with many weak republicans who are afraid to do what must be done and a split SCOTUS, whose integrity has probably been compromised. Billions of taxpayer dollars are going toward foreign entities who values we find vile and abhorrent. Yet those of us who disagree are the “wackos”
It is hard to change hearts and minds, and it is hard to find courage. Beck has a radio show and a mainstream website. As freepers we do not have these things at our disposal. He very well may be doing the best he can under immensely difficult circumstances.
We are not however helpless. The only way to convert hearts and minds is in our own lives one person at a time. Never give up on people and always offer them kindness even when they are spewing nonsense. It takes time to build relationships... but build them we must by living the truth every day to the best of our ability. We can’t expect Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin ( whom I love by the way) or Marco Rubio to come in and save the day. We can’t wait for a white knight, we must get up on the horse ourselves.
AMEN ... hence my tagline
I can understand the negativity, too.
However, there are positive and negative ways to deal with it.
Posting negative, whiny comments never, ever helps.
As a matter of fact, it hurts, as I illustrated with my example of paddling a boat.
If ever Americans have had a need to maintain calm resolve and to foster positive cooperation among ourselves, it’s now.
God bless you Longfellow, we need this kind of encouragement. Just listening to Freepers fighting amongst ourselves about a fellow conservative is like, well, spinning our wheels.
