1.) Harsh discordance of sound, dissonance.

2.) A discordant of meaningless mixture of sounds.

I have started three of four posts on all that has gone on the last few days, all Fox Newsy and the White House this and the White House that. The Mama Grizzlies coming from behind to take the Georgia GOP primary. New York Mosques, Oil spill caps, heat waves, Dan Choi and crimes and misdemeanors - Love, valor ,compassion and well, camping with Kate and the freaking eight. Really we here at the k+b went all but pulling the covers over our heads.... could not clear the noise.

It has either been very hot or very rainy for the last week, and I have spent too much time either reading on here or watching television. One of my major problems is, I for what ever flagellating reason, seem just a moth to a flame to the Fox News. Have any of you actually watched even five minutes of Glen Beck? Jaw droppingly big time, padded room crazy. To the point of asking what on earth the powers that be over there are thinking by putting him on the air.

I have never watched or listened much to The Rushanator, but his dog and pony show and his minions are pretty much who they are. Old white guys in cars, who may or may not vote... angry that the world has changed in their lifetimes. They didn't get the brass ring that they just knew they would. Sad, but easy to deal with ( and not really all that interesting, or well... important ) But this new breed, your Palinites and your Beckerheads are .... well, scary.

I do think that this is the first time in American politics when facts just do not mean anything, at all. Hell yes, Saint Ronald Reagan was a native Californian and what does it matter if i can or can not see Russia from my house. BLACKS AND MUSLIMS ARE COMING TO KILL YOU! or if you watch Glen... the Communist and for some really really odd reason, you need to really really fear Woodrow Wilson ( dead since 1924 ).

The card carrying member of the BAT SHIT CRAZY club Sharron Angle running for Senate out in Nevada literally runs, fast from any press at all that does not wear tin foil hats, no facts at all. Just Pailnesque sound bits and out the door. Well some stuff about God demanding that you carry your rapists baby full term. No facts, just fear.. and not your W kind of fear, ginned up by his pals for some war time fun, but scary US against them fear. Who is and is not a REAL American.... McCarthy was railroaded. The Muslims want to dance on the graves of the 3000 Brave red white and blue souls that died on 911 by building a Community Center a few blocks from ground zero.

One and on and on and on and on.

I think the real fear is that all the crazy talk and such will just turn the vast middle off, not voting and letting the wack jobs cruise in.
