Part of thinking for oneself is also the ability to see when others are being misleading, so this is not really news. I guess for those that hang on every word of the political machinery of their chosen party, this has some sting, but otherwise, as they say, nothing to see here.

Title: Re: OT: Just as I suspected..... Post by: BTM on January 25, 2006, 04:03:54 PM Well.. I see your point, but I can tell you a problem just a big: most people get their "facts" about politicians (and news in general) from The Daily Show and Letterman rather doing any REAL reading or tv watching. (Don't get me wrong, I think DS and Letterman are both funny, but I don't use them a substituate for gathering my own info about important issues.) |
