An online comment (I think it was on some article having to do with tornado victims): "It is a tragic fact of life in these United States recently that we rush
to judgment and bitterly, caustically denounce others with little or no
real information. It's part of the negative social mood under which our
nation now struggles. Hopefully, some day we will be able to move
forward to better relations with our fellows. Don't expect I'll live
long enough to see it on the internet, but I'll do my part where I am."
This guy GETS it! It's been bothering me for so long, the way people JUST KNOW what's in other people's hearts and minds. The negativity is so overwhelming and discouraging.
I blame Republicans.

I get impatient when people say that Christopher Columbus "proved the Earth is round". Um, no, he didn't. That was his theory, but all he proved is that there is more land to the west of Europe.

A CNN reporter tweeted that Thailand is now under marital law. Not to be outdone, the caption on Getty images from the scene declare that Thailand is under Marshall law.
These are professionals. I fear for our country.
