I’m guilty of this “Anti-Americanism.” I’m not sure why but I think it has to do with the fact that its easy to blame everything on the Bush Administration and the United States. It’s much harder to really read and actually delve into all the issues to learn about what is going on. It’s easy to relate everything to the Bush Administration and their conspiracy-like search for a safe and consistent supply of oil. Blame it on the United States and the quest for oil! I admit, I am guilty of this in every respect.
Instead of watching television I read websites and non-corporate media and thus I feel morally superior to “the masses” but I’m no better because I have created a weblog that has generally consisted of “anti-American” links. From now on I will post a more balanced and not-so-blatantly biased selection of links and commentary…
Then again this doesn’t matter because only a few people even know this site exists. I guess this is a message to myself to stop being such a hypocrite and start practicing what I preach…
