Right now, FOX media services, be it radio or visual is discussing this mess as if it were the most dire reality the USA has to face.
There are a lot of ways to speak to these extreme issues. Namely, budget and the idea of 'The Bridge to Nowhere.' Pork barrel spending. There are many ways to counter the lies of the GOP. In good humor and with minimal effort to people sincerely scared of such 'out of their control' problems.
The idea of lasers is interesting, too. The idea that extreme issues are simply out of the venue of Democrats can be a real detriment to a campaign sincerely based in the desire to change the circumstances for the better of people easily manipulated by their fear.
The fear venue works for Republicans and receives high profile in Right Wing Media. The Democrats that want to make a difference with these folks need to be able to speak to their fears. Seriously.
There are answers for their fears and it is not based in dismissing them or participating in the lie. I can and have logged onto this blog and answered all the extremes and lies at FOX News without effort. It is worth the outreach to finally return sanity to the electorate of the USA. The extremists are good people, but, their experience and 'economy' in life sometimes limits their social priorities. Let's face it, The Washington Times is 25 cents on the news stand.
There are those media services that are intractable to their loyal followers, but, there are people sincerely bogged down in their understanding to issues of fear. They are worth talking to.
My opinion. Good luck. I want it, too. Know your strengths and where the State and Federal government needs you to help. Avoid 'pitfall words.' Mental health legislation in Washington, DC can be approached by an outsider without mentioning the Affordable Care Act.

Science: Could lasers vaporize dangerous asteroids? (click here)
By Amina KhanMcClatchy-Tribune News Service
LOS ANGELES — Earth dodged a gigantic space bullet Friday when the 143,000-ton asteroid known as 2012 DA14 came within 17,200 miles of the Indian Ocean. Scientists and engineers are looking for ways to head off such close calls by targeting potentially dangerous asteroids well before they’re in a position to do us any harm.
Now, two California scientists have a new proposal to deploy an array of lasers that could vaporize asteroids from as far away as 93 million miles — the distance between Earth and the sun. They call their device Directed Energy Solar Targeting of Asteroids and exploRation, or DE-STAR for short....

Tribune Editorial: Mental health care isn’t the place to cut corners (click here)
On Wednesday, the Iowa House of Representatives passed a bill allocating $11.6 million to help counties pay for mental health services during their transition from county-based to regional services, which was mandated by a law passed toward the end of the last legislative session.
Rep. Lisa Heddens, D-Ames, who if she supports anything supports mental health care funding, voted against the bill. We think she was right.
This is a complicated issue. Mental health services and funding have a convoluted history dating back to the old county homes that were abandoned in favor of helping people with mental illness and intellectual disabilities live as independently in their communities as they are able to.
Back in the 1990s, a funding formula was devised that placed a dollar limit on how much a county could levy in property tax to support services for the mentally ill. It didn’t matter how the population or need for services fluctuated. Story County’s approximately $3 million cap is the same today as it was in the ’90s....
