22. Two ways...
Well, where it concerns the media, I do what we all should be doing. Last year when going over my favorite channels list I deleted fox news. It no longer even shows up. I havent watched it in a year. Soon I may do the same thing with CNN. I cannot live without MSNBC though because of my man Keith Olberman.

It seems like sometimes, the liberals watch foxnews more than the conservatives. Everyone always seems to know what Oreilly said last night or whatever.

Stop it. Turn it off. If you have to know what grotesque things Oreilly says regularly, all you have to do is check crooks and liars. They will have the highlights. I don't care how conservative the channel owners are, ratings make the world go around. And if Hannity's show tanks, they will pull the plug.

Then, step two. Talk to people. Its always amazing to me how many people never pay attention to politics. I know here in texas, we will probably have the usual 30% turn out in november. Forget talking to conservatives. They wont listen. Talk to the other people, especially young people about what is going on. Get them involved at least to the point of voting.
