The ice caps are melting, the Earth set to boil, one supposed Democratic Senator is dead-set on denying millions of Americans affordable healthcare, the country remains at war, Main Street is still in a Recession...etc...etc.. but none of that seems to matter at all. At least that is the feeling I get when watching mainstream media. The 24 hour news cycle has become little more than a tabloid magizine with tiny interjections of real news. I can't say "Breaking News" because at this point, "Breaking News" consists of the latest Tiger Woods mistress declaring she has a broken heart! MS_BC, FOX _EWS Channel, _BC, C_N, HL_, and C_BC, are all missing something very important: NEWS! I have begun watching BBC America in the morning to find out what is going on in the world. The airways are chock full of pundits, experts, and insiders but none of them are saying anything useful
Donald J. Trump is the GOP front-runner for the Presidential nomination and he is a terrorist. I wish I was being hyperbolic, but I am not. Anyone who has been following the circus that is the GOP nominating process has to understand things have gotten really real if this guy is at the head of the pack. First of all, let's define the term "terrorist": "A person, group, or organization that uses violent action, or the threat of violent action, to further political goals." - Wiktionary.org This is Trump's entire political platform. He use fear of violent action from blacks, Muslims, China...anyone who is not white to galvanize the less than intellectual Americans who make up his base. For Trump, there is now limit to race baiting, xenophobia, slander, of just plain lying if it is going to advance his political career. When Trump first announced he was running for President, I like many others thought this was a stunt to hype ratings for his reality t.v.
