Thoughts on the Eve of the First Presidential Debate

It is the season for vindictive word slinging. I look at where politics and political advertising and publicity focuses now compared to twenty years ago and I feel disgust. The hate commercials, the pointing fingers and pointed jabs, and the honeyed words that drip with poison, all work not only to get one candidate voted into office and another one to fail, but separates the nation into opposing camps of belief. That separation continues into the cities and towns and spreads into individual families and I am speaking out about it now!

( ranting, raving, and general disgust follows. You want to see me pitch a fit, don't you? )
