While Mul, Joe, and len are trying to figure this out I'm sure the troops appreciate the rights distorted priorities.

Cowtown? Gotta be in Texas, they have Paris, Point Blank and Cut'n'Shoot(Yes, that is a real place)

Supes, I remember you bringing that up, and I personally believe the flaw lies in what you think people are looking for in their news. I tend to get my news from sources I know I won't agree with, any of the 3 networks for example, but I am not normal, I am okay with that.

I think the major news outlets do a disservice to the country when they allow bias in reporting. IMHO, this is a symptom of the decay in the quality of work that people in general, and Americans in particular produce. Go to the market and they put the bread on the bottom of the sack. Someone slacks off on checking facts, and you get a story on CBS about the National Guard that might be true, but can't be proven with manufactured evidence. Wrench at the shop is not paying attention, and you have 911 with 1 forward, and 5 reverse gears.

The scariest thing to me in all this, is that the average person has no clue, believes what they hear and go blithely and ignorantly along.

I totally agree with that.
