@Finn dAbuzz,
Quote:but a far better case can be made that a federal effort to financially support American agriculture is in the public interest
You would only embarrass yourself worse than you normally do if you tried to defend that position.
Quote:If you are honest, you will admit that you could come up with a hundred reasons why the government should not be funding media that you believed ran contrary to your ideology.
When have you been honest?
What if your ideology is one that finds it repulsive to use the military and the covert military to torture, rape and murder innocents? What if you find it horrific that your military is being used to illegally invade sovereign nations and again, murder people and destroy their lives and homes?
Odd that you, Finn, find a few cents an onerous burden to taxpayers so that they can receive a measure of accurate information, but you have no problem spending tons of money to sow carnage upon the innocents of the world.
No, wait, that's not odd at all! That's Finn in a nutshell.
