Second elections, only about half... now, only 31% of you think he's a good president...<BR/><BR/>Most of us could have told you from the start... And ALL of us could have told you before you re-elected him that he was no good for you, or the rest of the world.<BR/><BR/>You’re media, your gullibility to believe in WMD's that never existed and Iraqi ties to Al Quaida is proof... and even though now you almost all agree, it's only because every lie has a thread that will get pulled and little bits of truth will show... And of course, access to the International News outlets… Internet.<BR/><BR/>And, excuse you, I was born and raised in America... Please, don't assume I have no basis for my censorship comments... Getting access to international media simply isn’t as easy for the whole population there as you’d like us all over here to think.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-1143572471696046312006-03-28T23:01:00.000+04:002006-03-28T23:01:00.000+04:00^^^ I basically agree with the above poster.

It's when Hilary Clinton says things on that level that gets me ruffled.<BR/><BR/>As to "monopolized media," give me a break. Why without any evidence do people like to presume that a few people control everything. There are things like "making money," or market forces, that certainly influence the media as well as everything else, but that doesn't mean that there are any few or groups of people who exert "monopolistic" control.B.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03604898558343997616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15456688.post-1143471147788567292006-03-27T18:52:00.000+04:002006-03-27T18:52:00.000+04:00I don’t see why this surprises you, so.

The majority of the American public is ignorant to anything beyond their borders, as the American government has conveniently veiled censorship through monopolized media and famous American ‘poetry’ that’s considered the bases of the whole society, with all sorts of freedoms that are in fact nonexistent excepting in the brainwashed minds of those who know no better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
