“Sadly, there are way too many people falling for this.”
Agree. It is something to divide us and focus our attention elsewhere, but it’s also a real problem and is not going to end well if a solution isn’t found.
Not saying a solution shouldn't be found, but in order of priorities, it's orders of magnitude lower than the porosity of our borders, our economy, and the threat from radical Islam. Of course, another objective of theirs is to make sure the Republican candidates get distracted by "shiny" gotcha questions. Remember George Stephanopoulos badgering Romney about contraception? Now it's potties. Sadly, Cruz, hoping to score some points, took the bait and ran with it.
Obama and his minions in the media want us to focus on this "shiny" potty thing to keep us distracted from the really important problems.
