Reason 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 why I am not a liberal

My apologies to all of the netherworldly types. Admittedly I took advantage of their uniqueness in helping me craft my comment.

It's unfortunate in this age of supersonic immediate communication via the Internet et al, which is also readily available to the masses, then throw in politically biased so called "journalists" at sources which claim to report the news but which are pure propaganda factories and in many cases, especially in the political arena instead of reporting the news which does happen they literally create and manipulate what happens and call it the news. The Photoshopping of pictures, with a political agenda in mind is just another of those tactics that we all see daily.

I'm on Facebook and if I've seen one jacked up, misleading, derogatory, Photoshopped picture of President Trump and his voters I've seen ten thousand in under two years. Like most others I'm not crazy about it but have more tolerance for it when its done in a humorous way rather than a mean spirited way but nowadays when it comes to politics humor and mean-spiritedness has a way of melding together and the reality is that every entity with a political agenda uses that stratagem.

On the topic of political parties, Bah Humbug. I give an allegiance and loyalty to none although my political philosophy leans conservative not liberal so I make my voting choices from what's available at the ballot box that comes closest to my political philosophy and goals for the country. Since 2001 I've been a registered Independent. I don't want any party thinking they have me in their grip. I vote in all primaries and general elections. I give donations directly to candidates I support and never to a political party.
