It is kind of sickening that with the potential great democratization of information that the Internet has brought (thank you Al Gore) a whole lot of the body politic still waits to be spoon fed on their teevees rather than digging around for their political information. Notwithstanding all the complaints about Google being biased, even Google suffices to bring up most of what conservative politicians are claiming on their own part. If the body politic actually cared enough to do that, advertisement blitzes (and the money making them possible) would mean far less to the outcome of political races.
I couldn’t agree more with you. I don’t watch TV generally. But, when I’m subjected to it as in a Belle Tire or hospital waiting room, I’m infuriated by what is being spoon fed the public. We are a nation of cud chewers.
Young boys especially should steer clear before they are infantilized into driveling idiocy.
