It's the cornerstone of George Bush's new plan to help unemployment in the cities, to reduce pollution, and show those terorrists a thing or two about the American work ethic.

Yeah I saw the people handing our fortune cookies and newspapers at Union Station, but I rarely pay attention to that stuff. I just didn't realize all of that was connected.

Its also the only newspaper in Chicago that has intelligent and indepth articles vs the sensationalism of the ST or lack of depth of the other papers. I do also spend lots of time reading sites like the BBC, CNN, and MSNBC on-line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted October 22, 2004 Author Share Posted October 22, 2004 Mike, lets be honest, you probably ready every article anywhere...judging by all the stuff you post here I do try to read a lot. It keeps my mind working. It bugs me when people only read stuff they agree with. It doesn't challenge ones thinking at all, and it never makes you challenge your own opinions. Honestly I think I read about half a dozen news sites, two newspapers, a bunch of blogs, and assorted other crap during a typical day. Not to mention, I always have an ear on CNBC on the tv at work, the business newswires that our company has, and just about any interesting conversations going on at work, on the train, or somewhere else.

I couldn't agree more. As a republican I try my darnest to see the other side of the issue and then make my statements. Hell, why else would I ocassionally flip the channel to CNN, lol. Alright, end of cheapshot, but I agree with you completely. Don't just read stuff you'd agree with, read the other side so you can see where they are coming from. On a sidenote, why don't u start you own website, I can see it now the 2k4 Report Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
