The Aftermath


Get Headlines:
I may be the world's only Marxist valley girl. In the aftermath of my less than glorious appearance on the O'Reilly show on Fox News Network, I received all manner of insults from his loyal following, full of four letter words, many of which were misspelt. However, I am happy to report that everybody in the United States seems to be able to spell the four letter, slang term for female genitalia. Even so, those e-mails constitute an argument for decreasing the military budget and increasing the funds spent on education in this country. They also say a lot about the 'culture of civility' in the media as well as in our national life.
