What the **** are you talking about?  Although it's OT to this post, the
US has never been closer to a dictator****p, and if the current cor****ate
Coup D'Etat of 2000 continues to de-regulate the stabilizing factors in
the US economy out of sheer greed, you'll see it happen fairly soon
because the people will finally step up to bat for themselves and a
police state will result in order to control them.

Oh gee.... you mean you weren't born yesterday?  Goodie for you.
In a SO-CALLED, "time of war"... ALL media is censored by the
Pentagon, issued the propaganda talking points of the day, or it's
outright silenced by National Security Letters.  I'm not impressed
either.... haven't been since the early 80s.

I don't.  I get 90% of my news from foreign sources.

Since Fox News legally won the right to tell outright lies under the guise
of "news" in February of 2003, American mainstream media has become
a bastion of opinions and commentary, flooded by incidental pabulum for
the brain which takes the place of honest news.

Don't look for sun****ne at the bottom of a mud pit and you won't be so
bitter.
