    The problem is 24 hr a day news channels x 139 or however many there are. Used to be the news stories were selected for validity. Now everything is "newsworthy", no matter how lame or insignificant it is (to me).

    The days of responsible journalism are long gone, though this is only one degree of the other 359 degrees of issues.

    Politicizing a murder is in poor taste, though I won't be sad if the sarahpac is a victim of this senseless tragedy.

    May the 9yr old girl and the remainder of the victims either recover or rest in peace.

    Politics is like professional wrestling. Good guys, bad guys, drama, excitement, blood, tears, downfall and redemption. Enough scripted bullshit to distract everyone from the fact that the whole thing is circling the drain.
    Oh, and politics has hookers too.

    I emphatically disagree. The vast majority enter the public arena to genuinely improve the society in which we live. Cynicism is a cheap commodity and I won't add to it.

    I'm too stupid to figure out the double quote thing, but you are both right. Now hug, kiss and make up. Some are out for themselves and others are out for the community. Period. The world we live in is inherently about improving life, which requires making more money. It just keeps going. Too much, I'm stopping there.

    That's why I appreciate working with my hands. You can't bribe, swindle, or buy a vote from a nipple wrench. A shift cable isn't going to be swayed by your race, An allen bolt won't loosen just because it doesn't shares your views on gays. And a bearing has no ulterior motives.
