Why is it that anytime someone political pops up in a Tom's news article some folks feel the need to spew their hatred and ignorance to the rest of the world? Freedom of speech and expression does not mean taking advantage of the relative anonymity afforded by the Internet and forum's,like Tom's, to make everything a rant worthy issue.
The President made a joke and look at where we are on this thread. I, for one, am embarrassed by the lack of civility and thought displayed by many of these comments.
This if not a "left" or "right" or "liberal" or "conservative" issue, rather it is a matter of tone and many of you should think before you hit the "submit my comment" button.
I never send or post anything I wouldn't say in person to anyone, I am pretty sure some of this stuff would end poorly in physical company.
Lighten up people. Thanks.
