I think barking moonbats would be a fantastic addition to this world. Seriously. I also agree with comment 4, 100%. (although have never heard of the broadcaster, but will look out for the show now, thank you for spreading the word Laura). 96340@blogcritics.org Fri, 5 Nov 2004 00:26:23 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/11/04/170616.php#comment-96322 Laura, Thanks for the heads up. I had the opportunity to see Amy Goodman (host of Democracy Now) speak last summer and she is quite powerful to listen to in person. She comes from a strong tradition of independent broadcasting. That means not being beholden to any political authority...she has not had a good relationship with either Bill Clinton or George W. Bush. Hearing her speak about her own role as a tireless activist to attempt to keep the genocide in E. Timor from being ignored was inspiring. Ignore the other comments previously...this entire nation originated from questioning authority. The abolition of slavery and the Civil Rights movement both originated from questioning authority...not to mention the science of Galileo and the Protestant Reformation. I suppose they were all 'barking moonbats.' I never advocate that anyone depend on any single source for their news or information. Democracy Now is simply one source worth hearing. Thanks again! 96322@blogcritics.org Thu, 4 Nov 2004 23:36:29 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/11/04/170616.php#comment-96260 Man, I hate to say this, but that girl on "Democracy Now!" is about as frothing a barking moonbat as you're ever going to find. That show is great comedy if you can ignore the constant jabs against any authority figures. 96260@blogcritics.org Thu, 4 Nov 2004 20:23:43 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/11/04/170616.php#comment-96213 the vast right wing conspiracy strikes again!!! 96213@blogcritics.org Thu, 4 Nov 2004 18:02:12 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/11/04/170616.php#comment-96207 Thank god we're not a Democracy. 96207@blogcritics.org Thu, 4 Nov 2004 17:23:37 EST
