Why aren’t more Americans more opened minded when it comes to what they think is true and factual, when they are shown that it is not? Why when ideas are debated do some turn so violent they will attack fellow Americans? America was founded on ideas that were debated and talked out. Some of the ideas were found to be good and other no so much. But our founders did debate and did manage to create a country we should all be proud of!!!

For more than 30 years folks who attended centers of higher learning were taught there is only one way to look at anything, and views that differ from the “norm” should be defeated, not just through debate, but if needs be these differing views need to be violently opposed. Anti-freedom ideas are to be advanced at any cost, and those who are opposed to them are labeled with some of the most hateful rhetoric that can be found!!!

America, freedom, and liberty are ideas that need to be defended. We can’t force folks to believe in these ideas, but we can debate these ideas to see if they stand up to fair scrutiny. We need to oppose the violence of the anti-freedom crowds as they try to shut free speech down and control the ideas that affect the American way of life.

To walk through life with a closed mind will make you intellectually poor, and your life will be lessor for it!!! To challenge what we and others believe with a loving attitude is a long, good and well established tradition of America, and if we loose this tradition, we will cease to exist as a nation!!!

Some of the best political theater!!!

What a show yesterday!!! I sat and watched the two hour open senate hearing with James Comey testifying, and heads did explode in the anti-freedom movement in America. All over the anti-freedom lamestream media they were working overtime to spin what happened during the hearing.

Former FBI director James Comey came off looking weak,and sometimes confused about his role as the head of the FBI!!! Not standing up to president Trump and telling him how inappropriate he was in asking not telling Comey to let go of the Micheal Flynn investigation. Part of the FBI directors job is to the president is to inform him if he is getting or crossing a line. Comey had a duty to inform and he didn’t!!!

James Comey’s testimony exonerated president Trump and his campaign with regards to Russian collusion. This will not stop the anti-freedom lamestream media from spinning this, but with their credibility in a free fall, Americans should question where they get their news from!!!

All in all I wasn’t surprised by any of the testimony, except the part where Comey was the leaker. One question I have, was Sen. John McCain awake while he asked Comey his questions???

James Comey testifies, and heads will explode!!!

Ex-FBI director James Comey was testifying before the show, and because of show prep, I wasn’t able to watch it live. However I did read Mr Comey’s written statement. It was seven pages long and chucked full of information.

One of the big take aways from my reading was that the fake news was just that fake news. James Comey said and I’m paraphrasing this, “the press and their sources who think they know about the intelligence they are reporting on don’t, and the ones who know aren’t talking to the press”

Another big take away was that their isn’t a Russian story with regards to a connection with president Trump and his campaign or administration. Again the lamestream media and anti-freedom groups are making it all up!!!

This whole drama has been fabricated like much of the news about it, because some Americans can’t figure out why their candidate lost against president Trump. These anti-freedom Americans don’t know how to handle loosing, because they never had to face the consequences of loosing, or for that matter the trials of growing up!!! And lets not forget the older Americans who thinks it ok to shield their children from the “agony of defeat” and not allow them to mature properly, they bear a lot of responsibility for what is going wrong with America today!!!

American culture wars

Why is what we believe more important than the truth!!!

There are a lot of Americans going around stating what they believe in the news and on social media. That is a good thing to a point. What happens when we find truths and facts that contradicts what we believe? One thing for sure we are never the same person. Either we draw nearer to the truth and modify what we believe, or the truth drives us further away from it, because we never want to believe we were ever wrong!!!

Today it is simpler than ever before to research what we believe and discuss it with other folks to get input and ideas that either bolster what we found out or dismiss it as a falsehood. Questioning ones beliefs id simpler, but not easy!!!

American need to question what they believe to be true, and always question the narrative of others. Someone could be conning you, or simply doesn’t know any better, but it is up to each American to keep looking for the truth, and once they have found it, hold onto it and never let it go!!!
