Thread Name: BS: Political Promise(s)
Subject: RE: BS: Political Promise(s)
It's true Bobert. I try to avoid the Washington Post like the plague these days. As far as I can see, it's become a newspaper by, of, and for Neo-Cons.

I've mostly been getting my news from NPR, CBC world news, BBC world news, and a smattering of other sources. I stand by what I said with regard to a bias in favor of Dean on the part NPR. I'm not too crazy about NPR these days either.

I'll not be participating in any sort of ABB type of thinking or voting practices. I think that way is not necessarily as productive as people might think. So I'll just be voting my conscience. I figure, no matter who wins (with the exception of Kucinich), by virtue of the fact that I am a citizen of this country, I'll have the blood of innocent people on my hands, figuratively speaking. I'll feel better about myself if I vote for the person who I think has the most moral and political integrity, rather than someone who I know will behave in a manner that is inconsistant with human rights, just because he's not Bush.
