    At this point, I’m convinced that if you’re only looking to the right for your information, or only looking to the left, you’re only gonna hear what that side has to say. I hear it all the time. I don’t watch CNN, I don’t watch MSNBC, I don’t watch Fox News, then how do you know what the other side’s people are saying? Are you only getting that information from your side to tell you what the other side is saying? Are you only being told how to think and feel? This isn’t directed at anybody at all, and I mean that. I was just wondering now that each side is so far from the center how is it that you can even hear what the other side has to say? But I don’t think it matters. I don’t think anybody’s mind will be changed at this point. We are so deeply entrenched in our beliefs that no ladder is tall enough for us to climb out.

    It's all complete and total bullshit, and I don't watch any of it. In fact I didn't watch Steve's video either because I don't want it sullying my YouTube feed. It was a pain in the butt smooth out all of the political bullshit from all of my media feeds. It only takes one to bring it all back.

    Conservatives are crooks and those elected officials are awful people. Many of them are subhuman to me.

    Liberals are crooks, and those elected officials are awful people. Many of them are sub-human to me.

    I am the Troll Jesus. Follow me, my children, or clutch your pearls tightly.

    @ScotchnSmoke still sux lots of large wéiners. And tons of small ones.

    WTF Frank, I'm sure most of us had you pegged as a libtard, now you are telling us you are centrist/ independent? Does your wife have access to your account because you have surely espoused a way liberal accounting

    A little dirt never hurt

    I'm sure most of you did. That's y'all's problem, not mine. I believe that you should be able to have your gun and that 18-year-old girl who's ill-equipped to be a mother should be able to have an abortion. I think that we should have a strong military, and I also think that the president is weaponizing ice in liberally controlled areas to tamp down dissent.

    I think Sean hannity is a Nazí and Rachel maddow is a communist. I find nothing wrong with calling a person he or she or they, depending on what they want because it's polite and it doesn't hurt me, and yet I believe in a strong family values. I believe you can have both simultaneously.

    I think for myself, and I don't develop my talking points based on what the news channel tells me.

    I think the n-word and the **** word and the libtard word are all inflammatory and inconsiderate. I suggest you stop using them, even in what you consider safe spaces. You can make the world better or you can make the world worse.

    Finally, concerning my wife, she has dedicated her life to her family and to serving the public, both professionally and in her personal life.

    I would think twice about criticizing her. This isn't the safe space you think it is.
