Common Sense Is Like Cream




It rises to the top after awhile...

As we as a nation have access to more factual and untainted information, this allows us to weigh and decide what the next right thing to do is. And there is a growing rift between those of who who use this access and those who do not. By that I mean, those people who make use of a computer and visit Google, You Tube and other outlets that before they existed denied the American public of the ability to fact check and verify information that was fed to them in newspapers and on television. What we are beginning to see is that those people who refuse to take the time to inform themselves by way of computers are getting their information from the old and structured outlets. There can be no other logical explanation for the actions that they support. ca' mon when someone makes watching Glenn Beck a nightly event you just know they they think a laptop or a desktop is something being sold by Billy Mays.

Dude, Glenn Beck is like the anti-media, even though he is on the most popular channel on TV.

Weird thing, Fox News is like anti-news for the MSM.

Sounds like you are getting news from the so-called "unstructured" Huffpo or DU-type sites.

I recommend Newsbusters or Free Republic.

Ah. I was going to ask who Billy Mays was too. Now I know. Glad we don't get him on TV here.

Good stuff, Russ.
