    Well, NPR is the most accurate news source. I'm not surprised they haven't fuckered up

    I've heard pretty much every mainstream news source say it at one point or another though, from CNN to MSNBC to Fox News

    The 2 parties, Democrat and Republican, are clearly different. Quit acting like you know what you're talking about Scarf.

    sycld, it's just as bad when they constantly report factual falsehoods coming from politicians/talking heads/analysts without correction. We simple are not in a recession, but you won't find that explicitly stated in any news media report because it won't sell papers.

    How many degrees do you have in political science again? I have one, so I am going to guess that is one more than you do.

    lol political science

    Much like philosophy, political science is pretty much a dead-end.

    That quote and reply I made was the only chance I would ever HAVE to brag about it, did you really think I would pass on that opportunity to validate 4 years worth of out-of-state tuition?

    You should have said 3 and that would have really trumped him.

    Unite as a nation and work together to try and salvage what we can while being Americans instead of being Democrates or Republicans?

    Hey it could happen!

    I know it'll never happen, but how would that not help? Think of all that energy, time and money used by political parties to blame each other and argue. What if we used that instead, to help look for a solution? One of the most interesting solutions I've read about is by a professor who suggested allowing people to buy wall street's debt. Sure that might be too far fetched but the point is there are options out there, we just need to stop trying to save face and look.
