You tell it like it is, girlfriend. I think we were separated at birth. Saw you stopped by my blog and thought I'd return the favor. I like what I see and am going to add you to the blogs I follow. Now I think I'll go look around some more. Jayne Great piece. You tell it like it is, girlfriend. I think we were separated at birth. Saw you stopped by my blog and thought I’d return the favor.

This post is obviously about what is happening with the anti-muslim sentiment that is flourishing in this country right now because of all the religious nutters out there. If you read more than the first couple sentences you would understand that. P.S. Muslims don't celebrate Christmas “hings WERE better while Bush was in office”

Whether you liked him or not hings WERE better while Bush was in office. Obama has created more debt for the country than all other presidents combined. The housing crisis can be blamed squarely upon the shoulders of the democrats in the senate and congress who regulated fannie mae, urging - more like forcing them to give home loans to those who couldn't afford them. A few terrorist were forced to take humiliating pictures and you're crying like a baby? Give me a break! How about you pull your head out and complain about terrorists who are chopping of heads of innocent reporter, tourists and civilians. It must be nice living in that fantasy land you live in, tell santa clause hi for me next time you see him. haha how is all the hope and change working out for you? obamas no different than any other crooked dirty politician. He already broke so many promises he made just in his first year. The administration of transparency? Give me a break. where is this so called web site he promised to have up where we could look at every bill, paper and file that was being passed? still working on it huh? He said he wasnt going to have any lobbyists, broke that promise. Said unemployment was going to peak at 8% if we passed the stimulus bill immediately. Unemployment is already at 15% and thats a conservative number. I could go on but im tired and hungy so im going to go make some food. anyways grow up tinkerbell, you've been fooled. www.thedailyzing.com Your story sucks, to put it bluntly.

Republicans used it to stay in power for 8 years and the fear of the economic disaster helped democrat gain office. I would like to think that most Americans don't hate ALL muslims. Just as I know that not all Muslims hate Americans. It's only those that bray the loudest that get heard. It really comes down to using fear to control the masses, both sides have done it.

Just asking since you've lumped all of them together. “”My point in all of this mumbling is to say that just because one person does something it doesn’t mean that everyone in that race, religion, sex is destined to do the same. “”

You are right on a lot of points. I am not democrat , republican or muslim I just can't to see a whole group of people thrown in one category because of something a few do. It would be like saying because Bush was a complete idiot, all white christians are idiots. Sheila mc – Thank you for such a perceptive, well written comment it ads a lot to the post.

It is important to understand that it is a normal psychological self-defense mechanism to alienate what is different, what is unknown. For what is unknown is a potential threat to the ego. Yet, a healthy ego is the one that is so secure, it is not affected from what happens outside. For other's beliefs cannot alter the true self of one's ego, his identity. People must try to evolve throughout their lives, and manage to move away from the primitive reactions that we all have. We must evolve from fear (seeing all that is different as dangerous) to compassion (seeing what we all have in common: we all are humans with feelings and insecurities). I understand that everyone is not at the same state of evolution. I can understand and relate to the right-wingers and the extremists as well. It's their perception, their believes. And yet I do not share their believes, I will still give them the right to have such believes and voice them, even if it hurts me to hear them. For that is how compassion and understanding begins. (Accepting a perception does not mean that it is a good and truthful one. A perception is right only when the hoped outcome does not bring negative results. Thus, the compassion approach brings peace and understanding, worthy to be defended.) I draw the line when their ideas become actions, for actions born from such extreme ideas, can only have negative results: violence, more fear, oppression, and yet more violence. That is not the type of world I wish to live in. I don't understand why political people are voicing such ideas, and suggesting actions we should take for "salvation". That is a projective approach, and can only lead to hysteria of the masses. The History of mankind has many incidents where mass hysteria took over, and those moments of our history are probably some of the most shameful. Not only shameful for mankind in general, but for the perpetrators as well (WWII, Rwanda are very good examples) The only way to avoid mass hysteria is not to feed it in return, for that is how it grows. Republicans (some of them, for putting them all in the same basket is wrong) are acting in this fashion out of fear. Needing to defend themselves from a threat they cannot perceive. Left-Wingers should understand the irrational fear of the Right-Wing (all fears are irrational to begin with) and not increase their insecurity by attacking their egos, for that will only lead them to more drastic, irrational movements and decisions, based on fear. (I am not talking about the politicians, for they always have another agenda. I'm talking about our fellow citizens: Our neighbors, for they are the true masses.) These topics are so complex to talk about... I truly believe that the only way of bringing them up is to ALWAYS keep in mind that we are talking to other humans. Humans like us, who are not perfect either, but deep inside have good intentions, but perhaps take the wrong actions to deal with them. We all want the same thing: Provide a peaceful and safe environment for ourselves and our loved ones to evolve in. We just wish to take different roads to achieve the same destination. Our arguments should be targeted towards the "choice of roads" and not towards the "intention", and NEVER towards the individual who voices them. Our debates on the topic should be fought from the heart, and one day we will have Peace. Congrats towards another well written entry, one that makes all of us think...
