Wow...what a blatant misinterpritation of what I said. I said that IF blindly following is what patriotism means then yada yada yada. Also, I'm not stereotyping necessarily. Those were just cynical jokes, so perhaps you shouldn't take everything in at face value. As for turning the other cheek...no, I don't. I believe that if hit, you should strike back. But you should always respect everyone's opinions so long as they're based on intelligent decisions. You don't have to agree...just accept the fact that someone has a different point of view. Is that better or should I use smaller words?

Now...as for the media...I really do think they're mostly to the right. The few leftist media personalities are whiners like Donohue (who got canceled), Geraldo (does anyone know exactly what his job is?), and Colmes...Hannity's retarded step-brother. I don't subscribe to either side, but saying someone like Bill O'Reilly or Chris Matthews are liberals is like saying that Vladmir Lennon was conservative. I wish I could watch Japanese news...but I don't understand a word of Japanese. As for the BBC...I don't want digital cable. Just another 100 channels of crap I won't watch.
