My one and only post on this…(right)…I am very depressed about the current election trends. Once again, it seems everything is about style over substance. And the criticism by the media is completely to blame in my opinion. There is no reasoned, rational reporting, it is all ‘entertainment’. Anytime I want to get really depressed, I read the “Daily Howler“. This is a site I have been reading for years. Basically, the guy is a media analyzer who points out inaccuracies, scripts, and biases in the media. If you ever wondered why so many people are so stupidly brainwashed, this is the place to discover the answer.
Thanks for the link to the Daily Howler Andy.Yea,nothing surprises ya anymore considering how stupid or out to lunch people often are.Yea,journalists will write to protect the ridiculous money they make at the top or to satisfy sponsors and political parties.You know we seem doomed when government controls information and doles out only pieces to its departments and tiny crumbs find their way to us and often tainted with lies.These people that are supposed to be servants of the people have been allowed to do whatever they want and answer to noone due to the citizens failure to get together and take back the country.Why we can’t have elections all the time to decide important issues or to remove people from office is screwed up especially when people making these decisions can have personnal interests,kickbacks,mental illness,etc affecting their decision.Government and powerful institutions breed evil power and corruption.Since time immemorial this has been our fate.
