No wonder so many Repugs see everything upside-down.

I share your spite for Murdoch, but he's just one piece in a giant puzzle of a vast right-wing propaganda and deconstruction machine. Heritage Foundation, ALEC, Adelson and our mostly sheepish MSM are just as guilty. Murdoch just happens to own the largest, loudest right-wing bullhorn, while the others do their destruction in the shadows.

If someone 40 or 50 years ago had told me our freedom of speech enshrined in the Constitution could ultimately lead to America's downfall, I would have voted to have that person committed. These days, I'm not so sure.
