Toxic Political Discourse 

At term to describe the sad state of politics America in the 21st century.

With the increasing influence of talk radio and so-called new commentators, there is more vitriolic argumenting and shouting than ever. People like Sarah Palin,Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Ann Coulter and Mike Savage are ranting and raving like complete idiots. These people tear down and make up lies about people they disagree with rather than offer any solutions to the problems we face.

This toxic political atmosphere is making political campaigns longer, meaner, dirtier and more expensive every year.

Toxic political discourse is creating a lot of tension, flustration and violence, but few solutions. We need to tone down the hostility in Washington, on the radio and on cable TV, before we destroy ourselves.
