I doubt that any thoughts that any of us form on any sort of national issue will ever be original. There are too many people that have lived and died and posted their thoughts that no one really has anything original to say. The best we can do is learn form history, and gain from it (which I know Republican's hate doing, otherwise they would love universal healthcare, as history has shown it works).
Anyways... what the F@#$, do you want me to sit and watch 8 hours of c-span a day? I have a day job. Sorry if I have to rely on the [F@#$ing sh**ty piece of sh** we call the] 4th estate for condensed information.
