@BruceBartlett I'd like to point out that the great Mike Royko refused to work for Murdoch back in the early 1980s. Murdoch bought the Chicago Sun-Times which Royko was under contract to but he refused to work for the man he called The Alien. Royko was well ahead of his time.
You’ve Got To Be Carefully Taught
from South Pacific
You've got to be taught
To hate and fear,
You've got to be taught
From year to year,
It's got to be drummed
In your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught.
Premiered in 1949
@jgbarratt @SweetStPete @Amy_Siskind You don’t get it. The country they want is one in which they can say and do anything, anytime, but everyone else can only say things that make them feel good. You know, around 1860, when only white Protestant men with property had fully franchised rights?
Last night, the media couldn't wait to pounce on Biden for an inarticulate statement.
Let's see how many, if any, cover that Trump had trouble walking, had to take three shots at opening a truck door, as his legs appeared to fold underneath him. Let's see if the media covers this at all!
TOO OLD TO SERVE!!!!
With such unethical ownership and leadership, the Washington Post can no longer be trusted! Their "facts" must be verified with other sources!

I am 85 years old. I have experienced the American Dream because I was born a white, American male; I was privileged. Women did not have that privilege, African-Americans did not have that privilege, people of color did not have that privilege, Native Americans did not have that privilege, non- heterosexuals did not have that privilege--it was reserved for white, American males who presented as heterosexual.
In the 1960's and 1970's a sense of optimism filled the air in America, a genuine feeling that the American Dream could be made available to all people regardless of sex, color, creed, race, national origin or sexual orientation. It was a tumultuous time, the civil rights movement, assassinations, the Watergate scandal, the Vietnam War protest movement; nevertheless, there truly was the feeling of a promise of a better tomorrow.
Because we were so optimistic, we let down our guard; we took our freedoms for granted, a big mistake; freedom is a fragile gift that must be closely guarded.
I can't pinpoint the exact time when the change began, I think it was when Ronald Reagan was elected President. A popular actor, a gentle-speaking likeable man, a convert to "conservative" values, a perfect puppet for the elitists, white supremacists and authoritarians who have been ever-present in our society since its very beginnings. "Trickle-down" economics seeped in, anti-trust regulations were relaxed, “Free Markets” was the slogan of the day, human beings were reduced to chits on a profit board, consumerism took hold as the gap between the richest and the poorest widened into an insurmountable divide during the ensuing decades. Money became the weapon of the rich and powerful white supremacists and Fascists who now seek to overthrow our tattered republic. Donald Trump is their latest puppet.
We are in a very dark place--BUT WE ARE STILL A LIVING, BREATHING REPUBLIC.
On November 5th, American citizens will be voting to decide whether our nation will remain a living, breathing Republic or will go the way of Russia, China, India, Hungary and all the other regimes that oppress their people under the heel of totalitarianism. THE CHOICE IS OURS; EVERY VOTE IS CRITICAL; THE SUM TOTAL OF OUR VOTES WILL ECHO THE VOICE OF FREEDOM.
Donald Trump has a fixed base of mindless supporters that will not grow significantly. If freedom-loving voters go to the polls, we can have a decisive victory and we can then begin the long and challenging task of restoring the promise of a better tomorrow, not just for American citizens, but FOR ALL HUMAN BEINGS.
I am an old man; I will not live to see my AMERICAN-DREAM-FOR-ALL come true. I have devoted my life to. this cause. Please allow me to celebrate the beginning of a better tomorrow for America and the world. IT CAN HAPPEN ON NOVEMBER 5TH!
Be well.
Ah yes, the illegal immigrant to open-border critic pipeline. Does Elon Musk ever tire of being a massive hypocrite.
Also, it’s wild that this is from the Washington Post. #BlockElon#WaPoMeltDown#WaPo
Democracy Dies in Darkness and @washingtonpost just put their flashlight away. Having to cancel my subscription after 30 YEARS breaks my heart. Urging all to redirect sub dollars to other outlets like @BostonGlobe Phila Inquirer #WaPoMeltDown
