They might report you for being rude! Whaaaahhhh!!! </p> <p>Well, that’s just too bad, Mr. Friedman. And bloggers can report on more than just rudeness; they report the authenticity of the moment, even lawbreaking. It’s bloggers who truthfully document reality, without the filter provided by the media lapdogs. Remember the picture of Lieberman’s car in the handicapped parking place? It never happened? Whaaahhh!! Who you going to trust, me or your lyin’ eyes?</p> Hey, Beau!
