When the revolution comes, Fox News will be the some of the first to be in front of the firing squad! VIVA LA REVOLUCION!

OK. For one thing, I think that professor is just looking to get his name heard. He's looking for his next book deal. Talk about entitlement.
For another, I would much rather not look at the small but vocal minority who are making my generation look bad, but to the people with whom I've surrounded myself. We are working very hard (some of us until 11pm at night with a bus commute that follows-- that's you EH) to do good work. We are working extra-hard to make our dreams come true (and frankly, I don't know about you but my dreams have little to do with what is coming to me after I achieve it-- my dreams just involve the means to be creative and to be free from worry.) And damn it... every one of us IS special. Flaws and all. Regardless of what we do. Because of who we are. This does not, of course, mean that we "deserve" anything more than anyone else. But it means we should treat ourselves with care. We should treat everyone else around us with care. This is what Mr. Rogers-- and, frankly, what Christ (are you listening, Faux Last edited by LSPoorEeyorick : 07-13-2007 at 10:43 AM. |

Except for Fox News, the WSJ and other self-annointed prophets of the hard-working people who play by the rules, people on the coasts who work in media and entertainment are not, in the cultural debate, working hard.

And, I think that the people who 'get' that they are special from Mr. Rogers aren't the PITA's that are causing the problems out there. I can think I am special, teach my kids they are special, but, not that they are entitled to go around and treat people badly because they are 'special' or get away with whatever they want to because they are 'special'. I've taught them they are special, that we are all special and that there are moral standards, laws, etc. that we all need to follow. {okay, they don't always listen to me but I have taught them, none the less!!} I loved the show. I think he taught a lot of things and showed kids that there is a world out there besides their little comfy spot in front of the t.v. with their sippy cups and coloring books. {on a side note, I caught Eddie Murphy on A&E and they showed a clip of his spoofs on Mr. Rodgers Neighborhood, too funny...}

His point was the everyone is special, therefore it's your responsibility to treat everyone as such.
Yup, definitely the anti christ.

And I wasn't being ironic about the entertainment industry. According to Rush and his ilk, what you do is not real work.

Is that funny in a "demonize people with addiction problems while being one himself," kinda way, or a "Promoting hatred and fear of homosexuality," kinda way?

In a "how he sets up what he says" kind of way.
