The Internet (especially Free Republic) is where I come to escape a lot
of the insanity of the MSM-nutured cultural scene.
Just like when I first heard Rush Limbaugh in the early 1990s, Free Republic
give me an idea of what it was like for people behind the Iron Curtain
to sneak a listen to The Voice Of America.
(hence the screen-name I picked years ago)
Bingo. I have not read a newspaper or watched T.V. in many years. Between FR and Talk Radio (which often discusses subjects I've already read about on FR), I think I have a pretty good handle on things.
