He knows about it. I posted this site many times trying to get people to educate themselves before the election, but as you can see it did no good.

Here's some other good sites for political infornation..

Here's my question, IF one were to spend half their time on this site (and others) compiling factual data, AND the other half reading what is printed by our media, and announced on the major news networks, one would find that I'd guess at least 50% of what gets published is an out and out lie. Second, you can tear apart probably more than 50% of any politicians mantra based on the facts given in these websites. WHY don't americans inform themselves? What have I found out? There are some damn good DEMS and REPUBS out there who , NO S**T, would do a good job of representing and being the president of the country. BUT, nobody knows them. Why? The press spends their time "making" news by covering the "polarizing" figure heads of the US. Wake up and smell the roses folks, got to read between the lines sometimes, especially with the media..dman
