What American Sheeple Believe website
http://www.worldnewsstand.net/2001/sheeple.htm


I am going to save this website because it has too much info to read at one time. That is if you dont have to make a nice birthday breakfast for a 7 yr old. He gets out of homeschooling today because it is his birthday. Heck, we have been busy for the last few days and he has gotten out of it for several days, lol. You may not agree with everything on this website but I would love to read the responses to this website.
I have read very little of this website so far as I just got the link today.

2. Guess I'm a Sheeple, then.
I don't "buy" the TWA Flight 800/missle story.

6. the point is that what sheeple don't get is that news is p.r.
If they are saying it on the news there's a lie in there somewhere, otherwise whats the point of telling people at all, it's in the best interest of corp. news manufacturers to keep people in the dark.

They can tell little white lies (personal p.r.) all day long and still deify corporations because they think their own Horatio Alger story is just around the corner. The want to believe the virtue of the robber barons and their corporate news firms because seeing the truth makes them seem smaller than they want to feel.
