I love how they howl about "MSM" while FOX has a revolving door policy with the GOP.

Do you understand what brainwashing is?
Kid, I read more about brainwashing in the early 50s than you lefties ever knew about it. I do think that we have a whole nation that has been hit hard by the brainwashing movement that the Russian talked about. The fact that the Soviet Union kind of quit operating doesn't mean that that program ever stopped.

Yes, I think I know what that term means and don't think that many of the left leaners really do.

Interesting stuff!
I knew progressive long before most of you progs knew liberal. I studied the Progressive Era in the United States for some time. So you can know that period was the 1920s and that was about the time that they had to go to liberal to stay alive. Recently they went back to progressive because liberal had become so unpopular.

I knew progressive before Glenn Beck got out of diapers so please think that he didn't put it on me. I was trying to be nice and use liberal and all the liberals on one forum begged for something else so I changed to prog for them and they whined about that. I really don't know how to keep you folks happy without joining you and I left that kind of thinking nearly 40 years ago.

How many of those people you named were in a position of being believed when that video was made? How about none?

I thought it was Einstein who said that Fox was part of the MSM. That is surely not true, at all.

Grandpa, brainwashing isn't a leftist idea. Don't you watch Glenn Beck without fail?

And you should be glad, you weren't my teacher. Would have been put in place a long time ago. BTW nothing tells more of a brainwashed person that statements like these:

Of course, because it is Fox News that blames MSM the most. So, it must not be. Right?

I think that your video was just a tad off topic and it surely showed me why I just can't stand to watch MSNBC. Hey, you call me birther and I long ago decided that I wanted to see his enrollment form from Occidental or Columbia rather than a birth certificate.

Do you consider something here to be brainwashing? Is it really brainwashing that causes me to want to see those papers that Obama has spent all that money to keep tied up with legal mumbo jumbo? You really think that but then maybe you are the one that is brainwashed here for your thoughts about how good an example of something that video was.
