What I love is when these same folks see a movie like "JFK" and then go on to quote it as if it is 100% factual.

Funny you should mention that movie. I worked with a liberal hump who was outraged when he saw that movie. He was furious that he never knew all the "facts" before.

I told him he never heard about those facts, because they were bullshit inventions of Oliver Stone and other conspiracy theorists.

He told me that the real reason those facts were never aired was that the New York Times and other news outlets were too "conservative" to air the truth. Right then, I crossed him off my list of people with whom I might attempt an intelligent conversation.

"He told me that the real reason those facts were never aired was that the New York Times and other news outlets were too "conservative" to air the truth."

I work with 2 of them. One is my boss, the other is my "co-worker" - who collects a check, works from home, and refuses assignments because she "isn't comfortable" in doing them. Academia is great, huh?

At any rate, the "co-worker" swears that the problem with the MSM is that they are just too right wing to tell the truth because, "big corporations own them man!"

My boss is a Southern Democrat who thinks Clinton was great, the war is bad, and everything is just like Vietnam - a war he did not go to yet talks about frequently. He thought Moore's awful little movie was 100% factual and can't understand how W. got reelected. He is a big fan of Edwards... so, you know he is stupid.
