Should Congress be investigating steroid use? My rant to MSNBC 'survey'
Yes, I care because cheating is wrong. However, I think our congress would better serve the public by investigating cheating no matter where it happens.

I'm much more concerned that the American people were cheated out of our votes and then we got cheated by most of our so-called "mainstream" media who called anyone investigating the data or trying to get access to the machines that might have been responsible for switching votes - "conspiracy theorists".

Also, I have to wonder if there is any way congress could investigate why we are getting cheated out of REAL news because of all of the celebrity and sports news that dominates the 'MSM". I'm so disgusted, I haven't even been able to watch Countdown this week.

When I was a teen, Watergate had us all glued to our televisions. Where is that kind of coverage? Why can't you have entire shows about Tom Delay, Haliburton contract crimes, Torture Scandals, Sibel Edmonds and other whistleblower cases, Gay prostitutes in WH press room - I could go on ad nauseum.

1. Fire at will!
No sense in giving them a pass. It's war now, kill or be killed.

2. Good rant!
I keep sending this kind of message to various corporate news outlets, hoping that someone will actually read it. Maybe if more of us do this it will reach a tipping point where they actually understand that many people are NOT watching anymore & definitely not buying their pap anymore.

I keep hoping!
