We end up with crap-filled minds.

Virtually everything we read and see in the media is slanted. Biased. Condensed. Capsulized. And we even know exactly where to go to get the particular bias that we want. For instance, if you are a member of the lunatic fringe of the Republican Party you go to Fox News. And link to your fellow idiots. On the other hand, liberals like me go to MSNBC or the Huffington Post or the New York Times. Because my fellow geniuses tell it the way I like to hear it. They feed my bias. Years ago, before the Internet, our choices were more limited. And the main news organizations tried to be more objective, more fair, more balanced. But we've lost our objectivity. And instead of educating us, the media chooses to entertain us. With crap. So little wonder that we end up with exactly what we deserve. Crap-filled minds. --Jim Broede

The USA has been dumbed down. We are getting dumber every year, every month, every week, every day, every minute. The collective political IQ of the American citizen keeps going down, down, down. Despite the fact that we're supposed to be in an information age. Only thing is, we are being brainwashed. Manipulated. Turned into robots. Unable to think for ourselves. Stupidity prevails. --Jim
