I was sitting in the lunch room yesterday at work and listening to how folks were planning to pick their candidates on 11/7. There is a controversy here over a candidate who took out billboard advertisements that were deemed too large, and he received a warning to take them down. The newspaper blew it up into a huge ordeal. So now people are saying they won't vote for him.... Good God! This blows my mind. We have candidates doing way worse than putting up too large of billboards!!!!!!!!! HELLO! Wake up!!!!!!!!! Are you in there McFly?
I am so sick of the media telling us how to vote. Why can't we be strong and figure things out for ourselves, rather than be told by the media how to do it? Name me one media source that is not skewed in one direction or another! Seriously, no one just reports anymore, they ALL have an agenda! Nothing is EVER equal in the news.
Several years ago I gave up the newspaper. The radio in my car died in February due to a horrible storm. I catch the news on T.V. rarely. Most of my news comes from the Internet, and even that is intermittent. Guess what. I don't feel uninformed. There ARE ways of knowing things without buying into media crap!!!!
I am as sick of the news in all forms as I am as sick of candidates slinging dung. It makes me not want to vote, which might be someone's plan. If I am so turned off but all this BS, then I don't vote and they win.
I'll vote. I take my American rights seriously. This just so pisses me off!
