You can't handle the truth!

Back in March of this year, when Rick Santorum was still alive in the primaries, I blogged about the bias of the media. Today, the things being propagated by the left as a whole is just plain infuriating. There is a simple answer to all this.  However, the caveat, there is no easy way to overcome this debacle.  The truth is that any conservative American is going to have to make some very difficult choices for any real change.

The best way to victory in America is to put your money where your mouth is.  Most of the middle class America that I know, don't really understand this concept. Those that do must face the reality of how difficult this choice becomes. Most of us don't have "time" to deal with the raging National issues, while we struggle to put out the every day fires in our own lives.  The bills, the rising cost of everything from gas to groceries. Worrying about layoffs, the economy, the deficit and the foreign issues that could literally blow up over night.  To much uncertainty.

Most Americans main source of news information is through television and their friends.  This is a problem because neither are very accurate.  It takes to much time to wade though the BS.  Who really wants to "google" every statement made in the "news", to verify the source and the context?  Much less to investigate further documentation.  It is too expensive in our daily "opportunity cost", what are we willing to give up to accomplish and find the "truth" we need?

"Vote with your dollars", sounds easy.  It is not in reality.  For instance, I have had a yahoo email account for almost 15 years. While I despise yahoo and everything it stands for, I am still reluctant to change my email address.  My comfort zone is comfortable.  Who wants to pay more money for something made in America when we can go a block to Walmart and buy something at a fraction of the cost.  All of the "less" expensive options we have in our daily lives will eventually cost us much much more, perhaps America as we have known it.  This applies to the information we receive as well.  Cheap, easy to get, news and information is most likely "spun" to benefit the ideals of those publishing it.

The choice is ours America.  We get what we pay for, one way or another.  The truth is expensive, and I ask you?  Can you handle the truth?
