mission accomplished
my NPR station is playing a show right now, that is basically a compilation of radio clips from Bush's presidency. I am listening to it because i am at work today, trying to get things done, and no one else is around, so i had the radio on. I wanted to turn off this show, but i think it might be good for me to listen - get some perspective? some education?
Thing is, it keeps making me cry.
..
Is this all NPR slant? Or has it been a particularly bad decade? Or is it just that i don't remember how horrible the rest of the centuries of human existence have been?

Compare them with, say, MSNBC though. MSNBC, particularly Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann, have come out as the inverse of Fox News, they have an obvious and unabashed liberal slant. It's nothing like NPR.
All that being said, yeah, the past eight years have been bad. It's a little hard to see sometimes, cause personally my life is awesome and I haven't been affected by most of the misfortunes and mistakes of the past decade, but I think the naughts will go down as one of the dark, dark periods in American history.
