That it shouldn't be so easy to bait you so early in the morning if you weren't such a pragmatic, easy-going, middle-of-the road, reasonable kind of guy?
Is your point that the press in the this country sucks? Well that's not a news flash. The press has been broken since '86 when Reagan killed the Fairness Doctrine. It's turned into hackery instead of news. It's one-upsmanship in a game of polarization. Or are you missing the point that Rove, and his dirty tricks and Machavellian belief structure have pushed American politics in a direction that it may never recover from? Rove made the spreading of lies, disinformation, and character assassination a common practice in politics in America, and it has spread to every level. This is a man with no shame and willing to go to any length to get his candidate elected, and then maintain power, legal or not. The fact that some can dismiss that, or even comend him for it, is what is pathetic. This is a man whose grave every decent law abiding citizen should take turns dancing upon. He did more direct or indirect harm to this country than any one individual in the past century. He damaged the democractic process in a way that it may never work properly again
You do realize, don't you, that most of the commentary this morning actually says that or infers it, minus the vitriol and with a dash of civilization, including the links I provided in my second post?
Hey, I was just trying to cheer you up.
