Should we engage in widespread self-censorship for fear that our beliefs and statements will be used for nefarious purposes?

Is it the responsibility of the media to hand-feed us pabulum and explain the nuance and meaning behind every bit of flotsam and jetsam that rises to the surface in a campaign? Rachel Maddow of Air America and MSNBC's "Countdown" thinks so. I, on the other hand, thought that was the responsibility of the paid campaign staff.

What ever became of personal responsibility and being an informed voter? If people choose not to be informed are we to send them to education and enlightenment camps?

This is satire; a great American political tradition. Perhaps everyone should lighten up and laugh once in awhile; it does wonders.
