Pfr Happy to oblige and thankyou. If I had not done so I am sure Steve, yourself or any other freethinkers would have penned similar.

I work on the assumption that we are always fed a single facet of a complex story. It is a fact the media can worry to death within the guidelines defined by the spinmeisters and divert attention away from the real story. Most of the targeted audience fall hook, line and sinker for the received "wisdom"
My take is the more the story is vomited over the MSM the more it needs to be questioned. It is rarely black and white, they are all villains and there are no heroes. The hallmark of a true politician is the ability to lie through their teeth.
