Its pretty disconcerting. I think this is a bit of tangent, but I felt that it was notable. So I was looking around Yahoo!'s coverage of the 08' election and stumbles upon la message board that discusses the idea that Yahoo! favors Democrats. I decided that maybe this might be something worth reading and looking over, especially to view what a lot of Americans have to say. It was pretty dissappointing. Instead of a forum to openly discuss the reality of Yahoo! news or Liberal Bias of news or politics for that matter, it was just relentless slew of slander and insults. "And God Almighty let's try to keep it that way. We don't need another Mexico." Umm, what?
"Typical Leftist rhetoric. Instead of addressing the actual question, it's used as a platform to launch another attack on the Republican party. Leftists (Socialists) prevaricate. The reason the Dems. find the I-net so attractive is that it allows them to spew their vile lies without having to worry about confronting the public Leftists are not only liars, they're cowards, too."
Liars and cowards? Really. Any rational human being could understand that on more than one occasion, the republican party, or as this moron considers it, the right (meaning the opposite of socialists, thus FASCISTS[not saying that republicans are fascists, just saying his argument is ill-informed]) has been guilty of lying or to put it in a less aggressive semantic, misleading the public. What a bunch of jerks, and the people who sit behind their desktops and spew out uniformed garbage to the masses. Anywho, besides that, it is interesting though because I can completely understand the value of such a message board to anyone that may be interested in what is important to people, despite how poorly it is expressed. I.E. polticians. Mexico, socialized medicine, etc. But more importantly, I think it is valuable to see the way people handling the issues important to them in such an emotional way.
"so typical. someone asks a biased question, someone else gives a substantive answer, and then the replies are all bashes and don't speak to the main point: why is it Yahoo's fault that the Republicans aren't joining or organizing their own online debates? Do the Democrats have to do it for them???? And finally, by the spelling and grammar of the posts, a lot of you better hope English is never made the official language of the US because you, too, will be kicked out for not knowing it."
I see that point completely, but alas, there is value to this message board. Unfortunately, none of these bashers would ever own up to what they are saying and follow up with facts or anything meaningful like that.

Frustrating.
