One sided discussions, to some extent, are a necessary and potentially valauable part of democracy. However, one sided, or limited news coverage should not be. Perhaps that is what you are tired of. And perhaps that is the ill that is addressed by the evening of documentary films. I resent the notion (and your insinuation) that as you get older you'll become more conservative which equals smarter. As someone old enough to have college age kids I don't accept that. In some ways I am more liberal than when I was twenty.

Agreed, except that I have lost brain power, because as I stated, I
don't think left leaning or liberalism, or Bush bashers connate flag
burner. In fact, while I do not agree with, and dislike, flag
burning, I agree, and am glad, that people who choose to do it, are
constitutionally protected to do so. As I said, John should not have
made the connotation between the night's events and flag burners,
however, the agenda does seem somewhat slanted. I am tired of one-
sided views, from both Dems and Reps. This is coming from a life-
long Democrat who for his entire life wouldn't pee on a Republican
even if he was on fire. The truth is always somewhere between both
stories.
