It is so difficult to watch teevee
I wake up and turn on the TV and in less than five minutes I hear some guy who has written yet another toilet paper rag say that Bin Laden is not tall, he is not rich, he eats grass, he does not have diabetes, he has low blood pressure and some other disease which is the same disease that JFK had and that is why his skin is darker (what about his beard HUH?) :eyes:

Schiffer then talks about Hillary being on all five talk shows in one week and says the only other time that has happened was when Monica Lewinsky's lawyer did it. :eyes:

:argh:

EVERY fucking thing that is reported is twisted and tainted and politically spinned and history is constantly being rewritten.

It's sickening. But you know that.

8. I turned it on to find some other program and was looking for the remote
and had to endure the torure that I wrote about above in the meantime. What is so disturbing is that I hardly ever watch "views" shows anymore but whenever I stumble upon one, no matter how randomly, I hear the lies that they are feeding anybody who will listen. That they are doing this day in and out, around the clock is terrible. It does not bode well for America's future.

9. We need to take control of the rhetoric, and call T-V propaganda, etc.
I used to call T-V the one-eyed baby sitter. I now call it "the one-eyed LIAR."
