Ahhh yes, the lies that are told to control the peons. One simple issue among zillions, let's hope talk radio is emboldening an otherwise emasculated society of helots, serfs, and slaves.

    And the ship that is in port forever is useless. It would be just as well to the rest of the world if it never existed.
     -- Publius

    If a ship does not sail at will, it is tied to the port of tyranny.
