You Get What You Deserve

Again I hear people repeating portions of comments with a spin to ridicule the person speaking. Its not new and both sides have been guilty. We the people should not repeat it however. Does anyone truly believe Romney was talking about the undergarment type binder when he made the statement regarding his search for qualified female candidates? I doubt it but it does raise emotions and get uninformed, slow thinking people to jump on the "Republicans hate women" bandwagon. It seems one side is following the plam of throwing enough pooh against the wall and some of it will stick. The more you throw, the more will stick. Quantity, not quality matters. Those of us who try to make informed decisions naturally become annoyed when so many people repeat things they hear as if they are true. If they are fans of Honey Boo Boo they will be voting for Obama since she endorsed him. It doesn't matter if that person knows what the issues are. Celebrities are having an increasing influence on everyday people. Maybe it is because too many have become confused by the constant half truths. Perhaps they are time-challenged and don't make an attempt to check facts or the record before forming an opinion. The unfortunate thing is we all have to live with the results. Although both sides have reason to be frustrated we should not give up and let our future be determined by those who base their opinions on unimportant or incorrect information and political ads.
