Whats funny to me is that most liberals are relatively meek and typically aren't really assertive (men the men are at least) yet nothing strikes fear into the hear of red blooded American men on the right like the sound of a vegetarians voice. I think its because talk radio has such a devoted following that when Limbaugh and Hannity start on their talking points by the drive home most of them are in a frenzy. If you listen to any one on right wing radio they don't even pretend to be the least bit objective but they don't need to be they are preaching to a very big and devoted choir. Really how much does a football coach have to say to whip the troops into a frenzy. All this BS is rooted in an agenda that benefits a very specific group of people. On both the left and the right there are some high level puppet masters who stoke the fire and reap the benefits. The average Ditto Head can't see that, neither can a Bernie Voter. I think most of this country is in the middle about most things. I wish we had a political process that represented the middle and didn['t have a set agenda. You can believe in gun control and be against abortion. Its ludicrous.
