Wow -- Bill Moyers, "Stalinistic." For an idea of how political polarization has divorced some completely from reality, go no further than "mulhollandose."

[mulhollanddose]

"Why are you none of you talking about the issue? You are focussing on the messenger rather than the message."

If the messenger corrupts the message, with intent, then one must focus on both the message and the messenger. Bill Moyers is a deceiver by nature. He worked propaganda for the Democrat party during the Johnson Administration. He still does for the ultra-left liberal ideology.

So you have a better, more reliable source than the press? To truly know the verified unadulterated truth you claim to speak you would need resources to rival that of the CIA. The rest of us mere mortals have to make do with the mass media, but were not stupid enough to think their biased against right wing thinking. I suppose, yes, in a way us leftist scum are slightly biased against your rightcheous right, but we can't help it; you give us so much material to play with.

Destroying religion was not one of marxes key policies...he was merely suspicious of it because in his time, religion was genuinely used as a tool for keeping the 'lower orders' in line. I'm sure if he was alive today to see how it has evolved into something more positive he might change his mind.

Bush made a war to secure oil and thus made his country an even bigger target for terrorism, and he hired Rumsfelt (a guy who said that, in regards to the US invasion of Iraq, 'we don't do nation building' which is supposedly what the invasion was all about)....justification, I think, for hating him.

fascism is right wing you dumbass. As was stalin. he just dressed up elitest interest in a more fashionable package.

[multitudinal]

The republican party is easily the best party ever; anybody who disagrees with me is obviously an idiot and biased liberal scum. Oh and by the way the completely exact and accurate science of economics prooves that right wing thinking is factually accurate and left wing thinking is flawed. I like chat rooms and live in my mums attic.

Why are you none of you talking about the issue? You are focussing on the messenger rather than the message.

Perhaps you want to have someone in a corporate office decide which websites your ISP allows you to access, or better yet what time of day you can access it, or how about how much you pay? Sounds fun! Let's change the internet into mainstream TV, that won't be an ironic regression now will it?

Seriously, are you people even breathing?

Did big business fool us or what. They convinced people that if beg websites have to pay for their internet connection that the internet would become to expensive for the average user.  What a con job they did on us because the only reason why so many beg website are against this is because they would have to pay for their connections. They even fooled the most anti-business people in the world, the democratic party. Now they are campaigning for multi-million dollar businesses.

Crazy how many people jump in to oppose our freedoms when anyone takes a stance defending them. There's so many corrupt humans in America. Luckily though the passions of those that Defend our Liberties is so much stronger than the individuals who oppose them. They realize this thus they engage in Corporatism to create Propoganda to appear larger than they really are. I respect Bill alot, but respect Ron Paul even more although I dont think he fully understands the Net Neutrality issue yet.

Just one question , where do you get your news from? I read all the sources I can and make my own mind up, I don't let people tell me what to think. I am all about transparency and truth in government and I will never march in step to causes that discriminate or force me to restrict the rule of law. The press has every right to question Bush, just like it did when Clinton was in office.
