(12,189 posts)... I talk, I cheer, but most times I scream and add the missing info that they seem to let slip right over their shoulders. Have come darn near crashing it, but I never do it.
Yeah, I have often found it a double standard how TPTB ridicule other nations for indoctrinating their children, when we have been doing it since I was a kid, and that was a long time ago. And I swear, I don't EVER remember saying a prayer in school. Maybe at special dinners or banquets, but nothing more than that. Back when I was in school, school was school and church was church. And there was always the Pledge and a flag at the front of the room.
Anyway, yes, we need to run over to PBS and use their archives of programs to listen to Bill Moyers. There's allot of different places you can find him giving speeches about the corrupt MSN, etc. DemocracyNow has quite a few, probably FreeSpeech TV, too.
