forget the politics, by the articles take (which I feel I miss agree with) sports scores are something I'm sure the NFL would like published, and can be seen as a form of advertising. Just kinda seems like it fits, you know?

the issue is that it's really, really hard to get that message out to everyone and have them understand the importance and the reasoning. to paraphrase Frank Herbert, it is the mark of a human that they will remain in the trap, that th

as a representative of someone who the poem spoke to, I'd like to comment. The themes in this piece run fairly deep; and to call them trite or predictable is both a completely fair statement of an opinion, and revealing that one may no

your expectations of voters are unrealistic. not everyone has the time or the education to sift through all that and effectively parse it's meaning. Madison avenue figured this out a long time ago and it's been downhill ever since
