Amazing that 228 years after we declared independence and fought a war for freedom we have drifted so far. The Founding Fathers would be embarrassed, probably not surprised because they understood human nature enough to know which way the country would naturally tend to drift.
Read this article by Joseph Farah or this one by Michelle Malkin, or how about this action by our elected representatives(apparently some crimes are more important than others, or some crimes are committed out of love and not hate)these are serious issues that neither of the big 2 presidential candidates have addressed. These are issues costing billions of dollars per year and possibly many lives, but the major media aren't reporting them either. In 2004, you can find more accurate and truthful reporting on the internet than on network TV news. Of course not everything you read on the internet is true, but it is probably more true that what you hear on TV and is certainly deeper discussion than 5 minutes dedicated to serious issues on Network TV.
There has been a lot of discussion lately about Dan Rather and the fake documents that CBS portrayed as real. But; most people don't know that Rather and CBS have been doing that for years without getting caught publicly. If you think Dan Rather, Peter Jennings, Tom Brokaw, and others don't have political views, or that their reports aren't biased by their views then you need to educate yourself. Those guys have views and opinions as strong as Rush Limbaugh. Their newscasts show their biases, but unlike Rush they say they are unbiased. How can anyone intelligent enough to do what Dan Rather has done for years not have an opinion, and if you have a strong opinion, it will come through in what you say and what you report. Jesus said "You brood of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak what is good? For the mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart. Matt 12:34 NASU. It is at true today as it was 2000 years ago. Everyone has an opinion, it is not wrong to have an opinion or to report with a biased. What is wrong is saying you are unbiased, but everyone else is biased.
Freedom includes the right to make wrong decisions.
