"When the people find they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." - Benjamin Franklin;
"And when politicians find that honor and character matter less than buying votes and a constituency, that too will herald the end of the Constitution. When that happens we must work tirelessly to change their minds, or their occupation!" - Hoping The Blind Will See

The "W" Words

Have you noticed in almost all instances, when someone on the news is asked a question - up to, and including the President - that person provides what they hope will be viewed as a satisfactory answer. Often times, the answer is accepted by the questioner. But what's happened to the "W" words? Who, what, where, why, and when? What's happened to the word How? We rarely hear those questions as followups to get to the root of an issue. Who's teaching modern day journalists? What is the agenda/ideology of those professors? Where (from what institutions) are our modern day journalists getting their education? Why is no one - even the most respected investigative journalists - asking these questions? How do we change it? And when? I guess in retrospect I am pleased to have received a parochial education growing up - it took all political ideology out of the mix. I feel sorry for all those "young skulls full of mush" (as Rush Limbaugh would say) who are being indoctrinated by political influence in our educational system. We've lost God in our schools - allegedly for the greater good of the masses (I don't think it's worked, do you?) - but have allowed (and encouraged) political influence. Ah, the stupidity... Wake Up America!!!
