Just because Roachboy and you are out of the mainstream does not mean both parties are not. They are not ultra-left because there quite simply are not enough people there to run a campaign on.

Seaver, speaking only for myself, I would like to know if you think that I am "out of the mainstream" because:
1.)host is uninformed about current U.S. political and news events
2.)host is misinformed by a liberal media with a "leftist" anti-corporate agenda.
3.)host simply repeats left-wing talking points and has no opinions of his own.
4.)host is informed and knowledgable about political news and events, but draws incorrect or inaccurate conclusions.
5.)host is teamed with the liberal media for the purpose of shaping events and opinions, such as influencing the U.S. public to be averse to an attack on Iran. (see another posters opinion that describes this scenario:
http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showpos...5&postcount=16 )
Seaver, is the difference in the opinions of American poll respondents, as to the "correctness" and accuracy of judgment , related to the decision to invade Iraq, and the overall job approval rating of president Bush, today, vs. three years ago,
more about people becoming aware of what they could have known three years ago, or is it the influence of the "message" of the liberal media, and folks like.....me?
I submit that informed opinion is the only thing standing in the way of a political right, bent on corporatist control, in the U.S., and in the world, the only thing that has a chance to thwart well financed, "PR" campaigns.
These corporatist folks invest money to influence the majority to think and act, counter to their own best interests, and they seem confident, that, when they "catapult the propaganda", they are getting their money's worth....go figure!
