Anthony Wilkins: until we become tolerant of other views, we'll continue in the mud

After reading the opinion page of a recent online edition opinion, I would like to share my view on politics of the day. The political dialogue has been hijacked by segments of the far right and the far left while viewpoints of reasonable, independent thinking people have been squelched. Just look at the nature of messages being floated all over the Internet and on media outlets about state and national officials. Many people unfortunately, if they see or hear the same thing enough, totally believe it!
