Wedge

      I am quite Liberal.  I believe communism could work if it was tried in its pure form, uncorrupted by a despotic system.  However, I also believe that the best way to get perspective on the world is to embrace the other side, and learn what you can from those who are radically different from you.  This is a recount of a coversation I had with my mother. 
       I was rebuking Rush Limbaugh for saying that he hopes Obama fails, and my mom defended him, after saying she thought Ann Coulter's book "The Church of Liberalism, Godless" was the best fucking read since the beginning of time.  As I was arguing with her that perpetuating that sort of partisanship is driving a wedge through America and making it worse; she went on to tell me how I needed to get Fox news sources, because I was ingesting Liberal propaganda.  Even though I listen to Hannity and Limbaugh all the time via my parents listening to it.  They of course listen to the Left and center sides of stories via the 10 second clips on Hannity's America, Limbaugh's hate station
       I find this disgusting.  The country's success is far more important than fickle disagreements, and as soon as we realize and act upon that, the country will be better than it ever has.
