From the Nobel Committee today:

“Democracy depends on people who refuse to stay silent, who dare to step forward despite grave risk, and who remind us that freedom must never be taken for granted, but must always be defended – with words, with courage and with determination.”

We have a lot more pressing matters to handle at the moment. Let's keep our steel on target.

Great post, but. You can't both sides MSNBC & Fox News. While the anchors at MSNBC are liberally biased, they stick much closer to the facts than Fox News. Evidence? MSNBC has yet to be sued or paid $780M (quarter of a Billion!) for outright lies.
