I'm not talking about folks who actually listen to a variety of sources and make up their own minds...just those fall into lock-step with whatever their pundits talking points of the day are. I am getting tired of lies and smears from all sides of the media & political arena. ImNotBlue,

I personally hope they stay on the debunking of false smears. I also wish they'd started back in '00, when it mattered. “I hope the media can move on to more important stuff now.”

This would also mean that Obama did not lie when he said in his book he attended a predominately muslim school. Looks like the Obama madrassa story is a bust.

Can we kindly move beyond stupidity like this? People have their own opinions and preferences... and just because someone likes one thing, or believes in or follows something... it doesn't make them a "lemming." Especially when the people who are throwing around the "lemming" title, are only echoing what their political blogs have told them.

I use to watch FNC to be amused by their antics. Now, I'm becoming disturbed more and more each day about their 'antics'....and the lemmings that follow them over the cliff.
