I Never Thought I Would See The Day (Warning Political Discussion)

Yes, I do TRY to not blog about politics, although I have very strong beliefs and my "hobby" is reading alot of differing viewpoints about politics.  I have become much more passionate about what I believe the older I get. 

I even read radical liberal sites just to keep an eye on what people at the opposite end of the spectrum might be thinking, even sites like DailyKos.  Rarely do I find any logical reasoning.  There are some reasonable sites where you can at least disagree intelligently without resorting to namecalling, but they are rare.  When anyone (right or left) can no longer support their ideology, too many of them resort to the Nazi, Racist, Hitler names which I just find appalling. 

In perusing my nightly routine of reading several politcal blogs of both sides, I found the most amazing thing tonight.  

One of the people I find most offensive is not a blogger, but a very well known "supposed journalist" for Time.   Joel Klein  I don't read his writings often because he is so biased and hateful that I want to throw my laptop across the room.  I read the article because of a link on hotair.com stating that Klein was in "full throttle freak out mode" about possible GOP contenders in 2012.

Klein likes to complain about the horrible rhetoric and he's the worst of the worst about throwing it at Conservatives and the Tea Party.

Of course the article starts off slamming every conservative belief and ripping into all the "front-runners" thus far, but he ends today's article with this:

"...so I plead, as an unflinching American patriot--please Mitch Daniels, please Jeb Bush, please run. I may not agree with you on most things, but I respect you. And you seem to respect yourselves enough not to behave like public clowns." 

I literally had to read the last part a couple times to make sure I read that right.  I don't think I could get behind Jeb Bush only because I think he, like Palin, Bachmann, and several other GOP contenders would draw out millions of voters only to vote AGAINST them.

But Mitch?  Since Mike Pence won't run (yet), I think Mitch would be a good President and could win. 

All I gotta say is that Klein must be VERY nervous about the outcome of the 2012 Presidential election and he's thinking it may NOT be in the Democrat's favor.

In the words of Arte Johnson, "Interesting, VERY interesting."
