2. This is really sums it up. And be sure to see this great Gannon video
I'm so going to steal the link to this strip! Trudeau has lost none of his fire. He still cares passionately instead of giving in to cynicism, and he has built a place for himself in the national discourse. People who don't see it on TV can at least get a glimpse of the blivet** administration scandals from Doonsebury. Secretary of Toady Affairs! Brilliant because so true.

And be sure to check out this amazing 13-minute video montage of the "Gannon" scandal. It is absolutely not to be missed:

4. I want everyone to see it and send it out
Edited on Mon Mar-14-05 03:46 PM by Nothing Without Hope
The Rethug jerk at the end saying that the problem is the activist, partisan bloggers is something we need to pay attention to. It's an ominous new talking point. The cartel doesn't like any opposition to its schemes, and they are going to try to suppress the free internet, depend on it. We need to be ready for these attacks.

Edited: initially I asked you to go vote up the video thread, but I decided that's not quite ethical. So I'll say I'll be pleased if you do but you of course must do what you think is best. I want everyone who missed it when it first came out to watch it and send it to their friends. It makes so many important points, and it is damning. The humor makes it that much better. Like Mark Twain said,

"Irreverence is the champion of liberty and its only sure defense."
