Blogs are democratic
Perhaps... I was thinking about this. Blogs tear down the walls of punditry in this country. All of a sudden anyone can not only have an opinion, but express it. More later perhaps.
while most people think they are expressing their opinion, usually they are either forcing it on others in the name of tolerance, or they don't know enough about the facts to make any kind of educated statement.
True, opinions are like... rectums, everyone has one, but nasty stuff generally clings to... never mind. Still, I think at times pundits and other established authorities aren't any better informed than the rest of us. If Luther didn't post on that church door who knows where the world would be now? Peace, Chris
