Re: Is the US media making Americans stupid?

Is the media making Americans stupid? They're making Americans dependent on them as an authoritative voice, so yes, they want Americans stupid enough to only believe what they say. When these stupid Americans get employed by the US Media, I suppose the mutually assured destruction is complete.

Re: People waiting on lines 10 hours long to vote in Atlanta

Sometimes the polls will stay open later but I don't who makes that decision. Strangely, when I hear cases of this happening, it almost always favors the Democratic candidate, be it locally or nationally. Yeah, it's almost always those higher income white neighborhoods more likely to vote republica...

Re: Thuggery and anti-free speech tatics from the Obama camp?

I thought among our left-leaning friends that dissent "was the highest form of patriotism". I can see them turning on this principle already, having their marching orders to assail anyone who would speak evil of "The Anointed", after speaking evil of Bush 43 themselves for eight years.
