Where are the people with some conscience?

It is interesting to listen to the many and varied rhetoric that go around these days. I think we are a pretty angry people and most times wrongfully so. I am curious to know if we always have to spew hate at any and everything that we do not agree with. As a people Reps, Dems or in between, when will we get it that we all share different opinions yet we are striving to reach the same goal. Ouch… maybe I jumped the gun we must be trying to prove our own points by driving our own agendas; as a result we do not care how we might lie or cheat or be hypocritical in order to be heard or to be seen.

Isn’t it amazing how some people find it very easy to be critical of issues that they themselves are guilty in one form or another? It seems as if all we do is to find comfort in making life a living hell for our brothers and sisters (are we brothers and sisters or totally different people, or are we from different planets?)
I well imagine that there are many well intentioned people around who get really stressed out by the sometimes unconscionable criticisms leveled at them. Sometimes people try to be and do good but their actions and/or solutions are really not the correct remedies for the moment.

In this the 21st century I long to hear someone who can really come to the table and speak in a neutral manner. I believe that our culture delves too much into the negatives and not enough positives. Our children are growing up in a system that basically tells them that it is ok to be mean and meaner it is even better. I believe that this is a phenomenon that we need to kill moving forward.
