One thing for sure now, the Russians (or insert any Nation) know more truth about our government business than the citizens of this country do.
OG, that is true of every Country on the planet, bar none!
We really should get over taking things so personally, all Governments operate on a different plane of existence to their citizens, that's how things are done, and have to be unfortunately.
'The People' holler for a say in everything but how many can devote their waking hours to knowing exactly what's going on everywhere? They can't so why should they be expected to have the right of a say in the decision of how to handle something they know buggar-all about?
We seek to control our collective Governments' management of our Nation, when what we should be controlling is who we elect to fill the job.
If we can't take the trouble to investigate the candidates before the election then we hardly have the right to whinge about the idiots when they stuff things up.
Those who demand more say in Government policy are often the same who elect a candidate because he's purtier than the other guy and who's patter plays on our heart or purse strings. Brains are not a priority.
When it comes down to it we all vote for the candidate who 'does it for us', for our own demographic, or at least promises to. We get the Government's we deserve.
The press is a business. Are we in Disneyland or something to expect paper proprietors to be pillars of virtue? Really? Were they ever?
I had to laugh out here at the Lefties screaming foul on Rupert Murdoch doing a job on them of reporting every moronic stuff up they made. Ohhh, it was sooooo biased! In fact the Labor Party went so far as to try to get a Bill through to curtail the freedom of the press! That was promoted by one of their more ineptly moronic politicians and the public didn't fall for it.
The hilarity of it is that the very same Rupert Murdoch was the one who got them elected in the first place! He 'did a job' on the conservative Government of the time that took bias to an art form. Why? dunno. Who knows what makes Rupe tick? But the hiprocrasy of only defending 'freedom of the press' when it's supporting your own side and views is mind blowing, even for the lefties.
