I've just tasted the truth.

I do more than read the New York Times. I also watch Bill Moyers' Journal on PBS every Friday night. Usually for a liberal perspective on life and politics. Here's a transcript of tonight's program. I always come away from Moyers with a feeling that I've just tasted the truth. --Jim Broede

Makes life interesting, doesn't it? Separating the lies from the truth. --Jim

Seems to me that you are only listening to what you want to hear; to people who only tell you what you want to hear. That severely limits your exposure to the truth.

I've listened to a lot in my days. Pros and cons on all kinds of issues. And I'm a liberal for a reason. Liberals make far more sense than conservatives. Actually, I started out as a conservative. On many issues. And I tried to keep an open mind. And lo and behold, I became liberal. Same reason I became a free-thinker in religious and spiritual matters. And a romantic idealist. And a lover. I've evolved. In a nice way. And I'm probably still evolving. I'm not static. I've been listening and learning for 74 years. I've never stopped. --Jim
