SRS: "You think someone here is going to fall for that challenge?"

Only IF they are really interested in pursuing the whole story, and getting to the truth...problem is, as seen here, is that those who are hook-line-and-sinker into an ideology are going to cherry pick whatever 'news' source they WANT to believe, while dismissing anything seen as critical of 'their' chosen ideology....that's WHY I posted the page with ALL the links.
While pretending to be for one side or the other, once money and/or favors enters the scene, as a way of bribing, influencing, covering up, or obligating legislators, whether they claim to be liberal OR conservative, that corrupted practice IS a form of 'capitalism' at its worse!...AND ultimately results in freedoms being taken away from the people who these phonies are SUPPOSED to be representing!...and instead, what we get, is policies that are dictated, in alliance ideologically, to allow such corrupt behavior....and have people look away, as if "My side is 'winning', so it's excusable because it's for the 'right cause'"....when in reality it is corruption, and it is wrong, and those who think otherwise have become foolish, in their own 'wisdoms'!!!

These people in government are SERVANTS of the people, NOT RULERS!...using their feigned pretenses for their own advantage.
It happens on both sides...because the corrupt perpetrators are not stupid enough to only go after 'one's' side' They need BOTH, to control the national dialogue, and 'resolve the problem' with a compromise, not in the interest of the people..but for themselves. Meanwhile, WE have to 'settle' for policies and laws, regulations and freedom choking, while they make off like bandits!

It's on BOTH sides, and often working with each other, to create an illusion that caters to the ideologues. Just take a look at what has been happening all around you for the last few years...including the past administrations, both parties!

If you'd (or anybody) would get off their ideological high horses, and stand for the truth, no matter where the chips fall, this would be highly visible, and easy to see with clarity.
But as long as you try to fit the corruption, and look the other way, because you THINK it is working on 'your side's' benefit, you are self deluding yourselves, and are tolerating the destruction of all of our freedoms.

Like music...do you only like one kind, and the rest are 'no good'???
