to take the morons of the world and tune them up until they understand common sense, it’s not going to happen, and it’s not going to fix anything (Unless of course I tune them ALL permanently, which… don’t get me started.).

People like P.J O’Rourke and Dennis Miller manage to get people otherwise not inclined to do so, to listen to them, sometimes, because they use humor to make their points. The people listening laugh, and think, hey, maybe the emperor IS naked… and they associate that good feeling (Laughter) with the knowledge they’ve just acquired. In this way, more people were brought to the truth with the chortle than the sword, and so slowly the tide could turn.

Problem is, the MSM is such a huge,. loud force, and the talented voices are so few. Not many among us bloggers have the skill, and even if we did, it would involve soiling ourselves with contact with the filthy beasts. Ick.

Still.
