I have a voice

Yesterday I was listening to talk radio. A dangerous past time I know, because then I get on a soap box. I was listening to a liberal opinioned person speak about Sean Hannity and conservatives. He said that what a conservative says in this country is irrelevant and it only becomes relevant if a liberal agrees with him. Wow! If that isn't offensive, I don't know what is. Not only that, it is a very ignorant point of view because while many conservatives tend to be quieter about their views than liberals, there are still many conservatives out there and they do have voices and votes. Not only that, but conservatives have needs, dreams and hopes just like liberals do. They also have rights and privileges under the constitution just like liberals. The thing that upset me the most is that I know that if the tables had been turned and a conservative had made that observation about a liberal, everyone would have been all over it, calling the person who said it a hater, etc.

That brings me to a new point. Remember when Pres. Bush would misspeak and sound dumb sometimes and the liberal press would crucify him for it? Has anyone picked up on Obama's blunders? He joked about his bowling belonging on "the Special Olympics." He made a big faux pas on St. Patrick's Day with the speech making, giving his speech twice because of an error on the teleprompter and, ending with the Irish guy's speech, thanking himself. Didn't he pay attention to what he was saying? How about his broken promise to his daughters to get a puppy and now saying it was a "campaign promise." Wow! That says a lot about the man I think. But, where is the press who have hailed this man as king? They are still in a love affair with him and so are not willing to admit that this President may not be the genius they tauted him to be. I blame the ruin of our country on the liberal press. Their warped ideas lead people to believe that which is untrue. They shape the political climate of the country and if people do not take the time to search and learn the truth, as much as possible, then the liberal press will control the elections as they have in recent years. Stop believing everything the New York Times has to say America, and use your own minds and common sense. Then, use your own voice because your opinions and beliefs do count. Even if they are different than mine, at least they will be your thoughts and ideas and not someone else's.
