well I am still optimistic,
between talk radio and the Internet, I believe more Americans are aware of what the heck is going on more than ever before! And as long as we keep the clowns in D.C.'s feet to the fire there still may be hope. LOL

I believe more Americans are aware of what the heck is going on more than ever before!

I think Americans that *choose* to know what is going on have great opportunities to do so these days. As an example, if you want to know what a particular bill is about, it takes only a second to download it. You need not rely on some reporter to tell you what someone else told him or her about it. But then, I don't think most people truly want to know beyond learning about things they want to be true. Understanding the ins and outs of a lot of problems takes some learning...and most people simply will not take the time. As one former Senator told me, "People say they want the truth and the truth is often readily available but the truth tends to be complicated and dull so the truth goes unlearned."
