Remember when you watch that crap, you are supporting them! Boycott TV news as unreliable, inaccurate, distorted, etc. It's not news, it's an income source for the networks and subjects are selected to boost ratings not provide important information. More fun to read TheOnion.comPitiquitoRosy said:Did you notice the way the talking heads at Fox News even climbed on the bandwagon?
I certainly wouldn't recommend watching that stuff to people who can't sort out the bias and inaccuracies, but I'm not the gullible type. And yes, TheOnion is good. I tend to read whatever I can get my hands on and watch (half-heartedly) the information/news stuff just to see what's being said. Read the gossip sites too, by the way...El Feo said:Remember when you watch that crap, you are supporting them!

Jerry, I think that when we reelected Bush for a second term we left more of a negative impact than by some people flipping off Bush as he left in the helicopter. In fact, it was probably reassuring to some folks in the "rest of the world" that some Americans felt that way. I imagine after eight years it was cathartic, an emotionally purging if you will, and may well have been healthy in a variety of ways."Kenny...Whether people disagree or not with how the country has been run, what good does giving the finger to a President do and what does that say about us to the rest of the world?"
It says that we enjoy the freedom of expression denied citizens of most other countries. God bless America.castaway said:what does that say about us to the rest of the world?
