William Paul, the 22-year-old son of 2016 presidential hopeful Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., was cited last Sunday for driving under the influence of alcohol after rear-ending a parked car. "Our Opinions" are tough to sanitize and apparently are always skewing-up our thinking – either positively or negatively but selfishly! I read about this incident with a partial joyful reaction – WHY?  I oppose Rand Paul and his Republican ranting – but that’s not the kid’s fault! He got caught doing what many of us could have been stopped for - but weren’t! (Or maybe you were - not me - yet!) No one asked if the arrest was proper or the arresting officer acted within the law - or looked for or thought of any mis-handling, excess violence, overreaching political overtones, NOPE! Not yet and I’m not suggesting that there were any either. But our  “Closely Held Biases” aka - Oyr Free Thinking!" seem to re-morph reality somewhere beteen our eyes and our minds. The more partisans or hating we are - the more the re-morfed thought becomes, 
I have to keep an eye on that and check it  personally and more frequently  – Do you?
