    Since returning from his ban he's more angry and vile than he's ever been... It's really said. I'm getting no pleasure from witnessing his current meltdown.

    Now he's just not making any sense. Maybe friendship is something that has been denied to him.

    I am sure many daddies hugged you and more, specially since you have been the alter boy as you previously posted. LOL.

    The same thing with so called alternative radio stations. The moment there is financial profit, manipulation will follow. Whoever is on top of the world financially has pretty much the power to control them all through various channels.

    My favorite saying is "Don't hate the media, be the media" and looking at Views: 234,318 this place is as good as any other.

    This is simply another outrageous misrepresentation of facts by another of the extremist radical right.

    1. First the entire article can be found at many sources including this one: http://www.registerguard.com/web/op...mulus-percent-debt-deficits-spending.html.csp (the author is a member of the Washington Post writing/editorial group. His articles can be found in many sources and newspapers.)

    Of interest, another member of this writing group is George Will. George Will is undoubtedly one of the longest running most conservative writers/editorialists and opinion writers in the main stream press. George Will is beyond a doubt one of the more Conservative columnists in the nation. Likewise, Charles Krauthammer is a regular columnist for the Washington Post. Krauthammer is unequivocally one of the more right wing established columnists in the nation and like George Will has been writing for years and years, primarily through the Washington Post.

    Now here is the first part of why this post by O_Nation is a complete misrepresentation of facts:

    First O-Nations self created title: Liberal Newsweek/Washington Post author suggest Keynes theories may be dead

    A. Clearly with Krauthammer and George Will, the Washington Post sponsors writers who are the exact opposite and diammetrically opposed to liberalism.

    B. The author of the article is Robert Samuelson who has been writing on economics and business for up to decades.

    Here is the amazing thing about Robert Samuelson. He NEVER VOTES IN ELECTIONS. He doesn't vote in local, state, or national elections. He has stated it would put a bias on his writings as a columnist.

    If you read through commentary on Robert Samuelson by other writers you will find people on the left feel he is a Right Winger and people on the Right feel he is a left winger.

    Robert Samuelson is anything but a liberal columnist.

    O-Nation: Why do you put out such misleading information????

    This is sadly very much true.. And this is one of the reasons why many are afraid of Internet.

    Curious. He had no quams about putting this into the article I linked:

    I certainly hope you weren't trying to imply Samuelson is one of the Post's conservative columnists. I also hope you weren't trying to imply the Washington Post and Newsweek are not the left leaning rags my post claimed they are. If either of these are the claims you are trying to put forward, I would be happy to mount the evidence to the contrary at your doorstep.

    Keynes' theories are dead. Don't shoot the messenger.

    Thanks :)

    I think Americans recognize the need to communicate with one another more and more. As I have stated above, the media is only the middle man. We can educate one another much better than allowing a third party to misrepresent facts to us.

    Can't but agree with that, but I wouldn't dare suggest to destroy the media in all its entity, let's just trust it less)

    It looks like you are ready for Diaspora. No need for middlemen. LINK



    By the way, "social" online is declining.

    You seem to get this way this time every year. Is it the holidays that makes you so bitter?

    Great quote.

    That it is!

    I haven't even looked at that network until the guy allegedly committed suicide. Diaspora allows you to download their open source software and you can publish your own version of FB without the seduction to compromise your privacy?

    Absolutely, it really depends on who will do a better job laying things out and ultimately up to readers and listeners to decide what they pay attention to.
