So I think it is safe to say-the Alt Media ALL OF THEM owes me an apology

77. Thank you! For all of the potential that a committed rationalist strives to see in these

opposed positions, seeking authentic balance in understanding both what calls itself "the Left" and the Right, it's very difficult not to come back again and again, always as rationally as possible, to the perception that the Obama administration IS being treated less honestly, with distinctly MORE negative INTENT, by all sides involved and that started practically on day 1 of his administration.

With a few exceptions, it's difficult to separate what this administration actually has done that could/should have been done better and, more importantly, *h*o*w* that COULD have happened, from all of the purposefully destructive agitprop going on. It's overwhelming, so is it any wonder that some defenders have gone into siege mentality and are not interested in crediting what they could in others' positions that have never demonstrated honest balance well enough to engage anything authentically positive about the last 5 years.
