It seems these days one can't turn on the news without a new sexual allegation happening from 20-30 years ago or more. No way to prove it one way or the other unless the one who is being alleged against admits it. Be it Conyers, Franken, Trump, a host of Hollywood and media types. Whom to believe, our partisan leanings decides that for almost all of us.
I'm just tired of it all. In fact when another woman steps forward and I hear she was harassed some 30 years ago by so and so, I switch channels or turn the TV off. It seems that the democrats are rounding up women to accuse republicans and republicans are rounding up women to accuse democrats. This is turning into a new battle of the sexes which I don't like one bit.
This has all become just too much. I'm at a point where I don't give a rat's behind what happened 20-30 years ago. I want to know what is happening with our government now. I want information on the tax bill which has been over shadowed by these sexual things. It seems when I turn on the news to find out what is going on in Washington political wise and in the world event wise, all I get is another episode of "As the world turns," or some other soap opera as both side parade their women and sexual allegations forward in the media. Enough already. Doesn't anyone care how this country is being governed?
I know sex sells, it always has. But at my age, I really don't give a crap. I just want news, real news, not the latest soap opera. If I want to watch a soap opera from 30 or more years ago, I'll put on reruns of "The Edge of Night." It does seem Washington D.C. has become a cess pool or a septic tank full of R's and D's trying to use sex against each other.
