Thank You - Remote Control, Mute Button
for allowing me to mute or change channels during practically every commercial break on local and network TV.

Thank you Al Gore, for inventing the Internet...especially during election season.

Thank you Air America for taking a chance to launch a progressive radio network, and although Air America fell apart, there are now progressive stations, when before there were none.

Thank you NPR for firing Juan Williams.

Thank you Tea-Bagger-Party for showing your true colors early on in your movement with the vile/racist and misspelled signage. And while their money lords have put the kibosh on future vile signs, ugliness of those early signs are for ever ingrained in my memory.

Thank you Jon Stewart & Stephen Colbert for holding a RALLY TO RESTORE SANITY.

Thank you Republicans, for choosing Michael Steele the leader of the RNC.

Thank you Sarah Palin for screeching your nonsense and inspiring Democrats to GOTV.

Thank you TruthProgress for exposing The US Chamber of Outsourcing.



Feel free to add your Thank You's

2. Thank you, Net Radio, for allowing me to listen to radio outside
the US and with no campaign commercials, ever.

Thank you, TCM, for providing wonderful old films with no commercials, at all.

Thank you, short sighted corporate news, for following the wishes of the Koch brothers in giving the baggers maximum exposure so that people are sufficiently alarmed by their stupidity and nuttiness.

5. Thank you right-wing internet trolls.
For providing me a clearer picture of the ugliness of the conservative mindset. Thanks to you, I (and many others, I'm sure) am much more solidly left-wing than before.

6. I agree with everything except the comment about Al Gore
Why keep the lie alive? He never said any such thing. What he said was that he made sure the internet, invented by scientists to communicate with each other, became what it is today. That was a huge innovative and visionary thing for a politician to take on as well as his political activism and progressive work regarding the planet. Because of his work everyone, even the poor have access to computers and the internet.
