    The 24/7 news cycle is to blame for the distortion and disinformation

    No Kelzie....I realize move-on is not mainstream but they do represent a dangerous element because they are financed by Billionaire, George Soros and the Chairman of the Democratic National Committee, Howard Dean is a national voice for them. Actually I should bless them because they are...

    The 24/7 news cycle is to blame for the distortion and disinformation

    I am not in favor of controlling or destroying the press.......what I want is adherence to the journalist's code of eithics and some accountability. We never had much accountability.....now the 24/7 news cycle destroys it completely because of the constant demand for new headlines that are up...

    The 24/7 news cycle is to blame for the distortion and disinformation

    To prove my point above about the smear tactics of the Left, here is an email from Move-on.org: Here's a MoveOn.org e-mail from yesterday: This morning, with his administration growing weaker by the day, President Bush caved to pressure from the radical fringe of the Republican Party and...

    The 24/7 news cycle is to blame for the distortion and disinformation

    The Gov't has every right to use the media and indeed has a responsility to manipulate the news in time of war. Of course it will be called propaganda just as I call the smear campaign currently conducted by the New York times and other left wing media against the Administration, propaganda...

    What is "the American Dream"

    Nice story Old and Wise.......you are to be congratulated for making your American Dream come true. There are millions of stories just like yours but there are still the cynics and the pessimists who want the American Dream to die so that they,as the losers they are, can feel vindicted in their...

    What is "the American Dream"

    Most people fail on their first try.......the trick is to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and try again. Nobody said it was easy. There is no certain formula and there are no guarantees. You could say it is similar to writing a book.........most people write several before they ever get...

    What is "the American Dream"

    Your question has already been answered by Mark A. Shrider with the following exerpt from his post and I agree: Life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness: these things mean different things to different people. Therefore, the American Dream is different for everyone. Find your dream & then work...

    What is "the American Dream"

    Thanks for providing some good logical support here.....I have no understanding for those who are willing sit on the sidelines and whine about not having any opportunity to live the American Dream, just as I have no time for the homeless who would rather live in the woods than get a job and try...

    Assimilation vs. Pluralism

    I repost the response from Diogenes which you have not addressed. I also want to ask you a question: Do you want a united nation or a nation divided by a dozen little societies with each seeking to become dominant. The old addage that says: When in Rome do as the Romans do, is timeless and...

    What is "the American Dream"

    You are indeed "Old and Wise". I will add a comment or two but I disagree that there are not many people in the US capable of living the American Dream. This country has a wealth of entrepreneurs, all of which are seeking and/or living the American. Capitalism provides the environment where...

    Ungrateful Americans deserve 100 years of slavery

    You misread what I wrote which is a clear indication that your reading comprehension is lacking. Furthermore, the first amendment that people of your ilk immediately start quoting, does not protect MIS information which is an abuse of that precious right that we have. You will also be the...

    The 24/7 news cycle is to blame for the distortion and disinformation

    Since we cannot simply delete the 24/7 news cycle, Americans must learn to adapt to the change in our environment. Until such time as the media once again shows some responsibility and accountability, Americans should ask the media to prove everything they say with multiple sources. Instead...

    Ungrateful Americans deserve 100 years of slavery

    LOL...Your comments merely prove my point......you are one of those who is so vulnerable to the 24/7 news cycle and the malicious spread of DIS-information by the culprits. Your lack of comprehension to what I wrote proves my point. I did not say I wanted to prevent knowledgeable dissent which...

    Ungrateful Americans deserve 100 years of slavery

    Your rather silly comments betray YOUR lack of education. If you were truly educated you would have either, not commented, or you would refuted my allegation with your brilliance. As it is, you seem merely "foolish".
