    The “theater” is from the movie called “Network” from the seventies about misinformation and the media — and if you are mad as hell–it is really worth seeing. Check it out on Netflix or your local rental place.

    The short synopsis from IMBD.com: “Media madness reigns supreme in screenwriter Paddy Chayefsky’s scathing satire about the uses and abuses of network television. But while Chayefsky’s and director Sidney Lumet’s take on television may seem quaint in the age of “reality TV” and Jerry Springer’s talk-show fisticuffs, it’s every bit as potent now as it was when the film was released in 1976. “

    Can we really do anything about this? I am getting more and more pissed by the minute. They really have ripped us off but what the hell can we do about it?

    I personally would like to organize a march on Washington to follow the election if things don’t go well.

    What a novel idea–TRUTH! Too bad McCain is out of touch with reality. War is not the answer to the conomic problems in this country. Obama may not have all of the answers but McCain doesn’t have ANY answers to the problems facing this country…
