Thoughts On Freedom

It's time for me to get up on the soapbox for a moment and expound on one of the greatest hindrances to our freedom. All too often in this country, the press has been complicit as a mouthpiece for government propaganda. To be honest, I can't remember the last time I saw a hard-hitting investigative piece on the mainstream news shows. If we seek to spread the movement of democracy in the mid-East, we must lead by example and use the press and our First Amendment rights to expose our crooked leaders. It's really quite as simple as that.
