    Default Lean on me.

    For the past 5+ years, I've watched this country devolve into hatred and negative reporting; but this is not the country I grew up in.
    I'm slowly seeing more and more where common humanity is returning, with reports of people helping others and going out of their way to try and make things better.

    I pray to God that when this virus is done, that some of you make the decision to continue to pull America together.
    Sometimes in our lives we all have pain.

    We all have sorrow
    But if we are wise
    We know that there's always tomorrow
    Lean on me, when you're not strong
    And I'll be your friend
    I'll help you carry on
    For it won't be long
    'Til I'm gonna need
    Somebody to lean on
    Please swallow your pride
    If I have things you need to borrow
    For no one can fill those of your needs
    That you won't let show
    You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
    We all need somebody to lean on
    I just might have a problem that you'll understand
    We all need somebody to lean on
    Lean on me, when you're not strong
    And I'll be your friend
    I'll help you carry on
    For it won't be long
    'Til I'm gonna need
    Somebody to lean on
    You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
    We all need somebody to lean on
    I just might have a problem that you'll understand
    We all need somebody to lean on
    If there is a load you have to bear
    That you can't carry
    I'm right up the road
    I'll share your load
    If you just call me (call me)
    If you need a friend (call me) call me uh huh(call me) if you need a friend (call me)
    If you ever need a friend (call me)
    Call me (call me) call me (call me) call me
    (Call me) call me (call me) if you need a friend
    (Call me) call me (call me) call me (call me) call me (call me) call me (call me)

    Wait a minute, "5+" years? So all the hate thrown against Obama or Clinton was all just politics as usual?

    If you look closely you will see that hate in this country escalated when Reagan did away with the Fairness Doctrine giving birth to talk radio, and its' success only led to entire news networks doing the same

    Reagan does away with literal fascism, and that's the starting point of a problem? Not the fascist who made it law, and is more famous for the exotic little war that he botched, and which is often denounced as fascist?

    Can you refute that hate in this country escalated with the rise of talk radio?

    Fantastic post! I was just saying today that I have been pleasantly surprised at how well " most" people have been handling all this. How well most of us have pulled together. Really been good to see. WWG1WGA!

    We can discuss your disagreement, when you provide hundreds of news casts, showing this on a daily basis.

    Until then, your discussion is a mute point.

    I really do pray that it continues, once this virus is done.

    So, there was this period of time known as the 60s and 70s where the country became so fractured that the message of "Morning in America" appealed to a large enough base of voters that its messenger was swept into office, and would later repeal a fascist bill which had previously inhibited the commercial viability of talk radio...

    I don’t see how I was doing that, but okay, you’re very sensitive. You had a nice thought, but your own post ruined it. Carry on. My comment was about 3D and I wasn’t even addressing you. Be well
