Don't usually post about politically related issues (as it tends to out me as "the other guy"), but this can't go completely answered. I will however only point out the few issues I most feel need addressing

I'm not saying there aren't any flaws in this article. I'm not even into politics myself. It was just something I came across and thought it was kind of interesting. I also thought, maybe, some of the people on my friends list would like to check it out and, also, find it interesting. Most of the people I know on livejournal are pretty political the way it is. Whether I vote or not today, that's nobodies business. I don't talk politics to anyone. I'm not even gonna read your full comment about what you have against this article. Nothing against you. I don't do politics. I specifically titled this entry "for you political folk" for that very reason. I'm not saying whether I agree with it or disagree. Just a random piece of information that people might actually want to read.

If you, or anyone, want to make a comment and rant your opinion on this article, go to the source. There's a reason I posted the website in the beginning. Leave me out of it. I'll even post the email of the writer right here as it shows at the end of the article.

Sorry if I made some unwanted assumptions your direction. I'm not used to how you use your journal, so I misunderstood the intent of the title and link. I might just move my comments there. Thanks for the correction.

Not a problem. I only came across it in the first place because some music artist posted it on their myspace blog. And you can believe what kind of political argument must have started there. In one of his replies to his fans, he says, "I've read both sides until I'm blue in the face and I thought this was an angle which was valid and rarely covered in the mainstream press." He's not forcing his opinion on anyone. He is just providing information to people that he thought was valid. So I thought that, maybe, my political friends might find it valid as well. It's not very often I can even include the term 'politics' in my everyday language.
