One can read Readers Digest all their life or they can move on and struggle with Voltair nd John Stewart Mills. What is interesting is that in an evolutionary manner the human species is separating themselves by education and political bent. And the news stations are reflections of the different perceptionsof reality. Thank god advertisers now know liberals buy lots of stuff-lol. FOX is clearly only for the right wing and is a Readers Digest TV channel. MSNBC is mostly watched by liberals and I would maintain their commentators read Voltair and Mills. CNN has moved squarely to the middle and seems increasingly mediocre to me. Their commentators cannot hold a candle to MSNBC. I try to watch FOX sometimes and I cannot watch it. The ideas they put forth I am sure are either wrong or simple minded and the commentators seem aware they must basically follow a Murdock script. I learn nothing from FOX. The entire TV station is a purveyor of nonsense.

"A Bill of Rights is what the people are entitled to against every government, and what no just government should refuse, or rest on inference." Thomas Jefferson "I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races - that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race. I say upon this occasion I do not perceive that because the white man is to have the superior position the negro should be denied everything." Abraham Lincoln
