My best girl knows very well how much I enjoy blogging. When she got home today, the first thing she told me was, "I have some blogging material for you!" I was naturally intrigued, and she proceeded to tell me her story. Allow me to share it with you.
My wife and a few of her coworkers had made plans to go out to lunch. When they arrived at the restaurant, they noticed that one of the women had brought a coworker that had not been in the group invitation. While that, in itself, was not a problem, they recognized this man as an unpleasant individual they had to deal with occasionally. This is a man who made demands for which he had no authority, looked for any reason to avoid work, and grew angry when my wife and her coworkers would not cooperate with his schemes.
Nevertheless, they looked past their personal histories with this man and sat down to enjoy their lunch. As is the case with most work lunches, time was a factor. There was light conversation, but all parties were mostly focused on their meals. Then, unprovoked by any one present, the uninvited coworker shocked my sweetheart and her friends:
"I didn't know I'd be having lunch with a bunch of homophobes."
My wife, along with everyone else, was shocked. They had not gone out of their way to be kind to this man, but they had treated him with nothing but civility at this lunch. In fact, they had no prior knowledge of his sexual orientation. They didn't enjoy interacting with him because HE WASN'T A NICE PERSON.
This is the delusion of the radical left. There is no debate on the failures of Obamacare. 'Barack Obama is only being persecuted because he's black!' There is no debate on climate change. 'Climate change critics only want to protect big oil!' There's no debate on same-sex marriage. 'Religious zealouts are bigots who hate love!' Harry Reid is perhaps one of the worst offenders in this area. A year and a half after the tragedy in Benghazi, critical information concerning the Obama Administration's response was given up BY MEANS OF LEGAL ACTION. So, predictably, there is no debate on Benghazi... 'Roger Goodell should take immediate action to change the racism in his league!'
Huh?
Reid was referring to the Washington Redskins, who have been criticized by some for a so-called out-dated and insensitive name. It was the perfect issue, both to avoid the Benghazi incident and jump on the bandwagon of those criticizing the racism of Donald Sterling. For the record, Sterlings comments were abhorrent, and he deserves the fallout he is experiencing. But where does Roger Goodell fit into this? And why doesn't Harry Reid have anything better to do than create issues of race? Shouldn't he be ranting about the Koch Brothers with every breath. (Watch this for a laugh.

I can only think of two reasons why men like Harry Reid and his radical ilk would follow a line of political discourse like this. The first, is that they know they have no rational answer to conservative points. I truly hope this madness is attributable to their cowardice in the face of real issues. The more disturbing alternative, is that these radicals actually believe that what they say is both relevant and a valid counterargument. If that is the case, then the liberal party is in danger of losing all logic, courtesy, and decency in their political party.
Dear reader, I have faith in my liberal friends. I know that not all of them are part of this radical line of thinking. I hope that they will recognize the foolishness of the radicals in their party and join with conservatives to remove those who try to spread this madness. This is vital to preserving a healthy political state in America.
