I use to like the show

I use to like the show but I agree with the guy who says there is too much screaming and cutting off. Some emotion is what made me use to like the show, but the emotion gets across as silly. One knows the answers of the show's guests on each issues before they talk, according to their political belief. Their beliefs scare me personally for sometimes there is an apparent hole in their argument or an issue that needs to be addressed. I wonder if the media actually addresses the truth or just gives opinions. Pat is the only one that seems to give a personal opinion outside of the partyline. I disagree with Pat on some issues, but I agree with him on the workers getting cheated by special interest groups, and people who exploit the fruit growers and construction industry which was so radical at the time. Pat was a voice in the wilderness, and now the arguments have become so mainstream. (ie Lou Dobbs) Democrats or Republicans can do no wrong even if they do the same things, is what turned myself off politics. I remember how Savings and Loans where a evil rich Republican ploy, but when other Democrats where involved the issue became a non topic, and the working man's investments got hurt. Shame on both sides. One side wants no one to have a bigger piece of the pie no matter how hard one works out of resentment, while the other wants a bigger piece of the pie out of your share out of greed.
