"It was like performing a C-section on a pregnant shark, but instead of shark babies, it was an atomic bomb exploding with household noises."

That was ridiculous.

LOL... national proletariat radio.   I didn't even need to read it to know what it said.

[likwidtek]

That's pretty ignorant?

to be fair, npr's marketplace program is great and I was actually impressed today during their afternoon rush hour broadcast that they had an economist explaining exactly how obama and congress suck (i'm paraphrasing of course). Otherwise, I like the station for the international news coverage.

So, um.  Did the article actually answer the question it apparently set out to answer?

All I read was Ron Paul's previous history, his seeming naivety in several "campaign pledges", and his unwavering idealism.

Am I to assume that the youngsters flock to him because of his idealism and the fact he, like "young" voters don't like to be told what to do by anyone else?  And, as a result, support the underdog as a sign of their "sticking it to the man" idealism?

I wondered the same thing broin.

You want to know something really sad? The thing that caught my eye in that photo was the rug and lamp from Ikea. I have the same exact gislev rug in my bedroom and several of the smaller style orgel lamps.
