There is such a flipping disconnect in this country about

what is going on.

I just saw a notice along the bottom of the page on the CNN screen saying the FBI have said that the SC incident is not an act of terrorism. And I saw a video clip where Rick Perry is calling it an accident.

You look at the way that the powers to be and the news media report the different types of crimes committed by different groups of people. They either are total imbeciles or have lost their ever loving minds. There is a total lack of intelligence and reality by those in charge of the media in this country any more. People like Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell and Chris Hayes are in the extreme minority.

I find that I just don't have the patience anymore for what is going. I have actually thought about getting rid of my cox account including cable and internet. I have a cell phone with unlimited phone, text & internet so I would not be totally off the information grid. If I want to download something I can always use the free wifi at work(stick my home computer under my desk ) or go to the library (or sit in the Lowe's parking lot close to my house and use their wifi ).

The positive side is that I would save money while lowering my blood pressure at the same time.
