Any idiot can blog

As evidence by "If you can't beat 'em, PacLSU," any idiot can blog. Think about the people out there posting blogs. Half of them probably can't wipe their own ass without getting shit on their fingers. These are the same people that you honk at on the road because they just sat through an entire light cycle only realizing it was their turn to go when the light already turned yellow. These are the same people you work with who get nothing done all day because they're too busy complaining that they have too much work to do. These are the same people you're related to (nothing more need be said). But they are out there posting their blogs so that we can all read their deep, philosophical ramblings of how Paris Hilton is really just misunderstood .

With that being said, I think blogging is frickin' great! Blogging has the potential to become a revolution in our society. It brings the people to the people. Rich people blog, poor people blog, stupid people blog, geniuses blog. Blogging puts everyone on equal footing and puts it right there at your fingertips.

If the 2004 elections taught us anything it's that today's media is completely disconnected from the people of this great nation. Over and over we were told that the Democrats would win every election hands down. The people were tired of the old Republican ways and they were going to do something about it. Then the election happened. Republicans wiped the floor with the Democrats.

Where the media has failed in connecting people to people, blogging is now taking on the challenge. No longer are we pushed into being force fed whatever ABC (CNN, FOX, CBS, whoever) wants us to think or feel. Blogging gives us honesty because we truly know what people are thinking, it's right there in their blog.

At no time in the history of the world have so many been connected to each other. At no time have the thoughts of the layman been so easily obtainable by the masses. We live in a special time where the information age is maturing and producing its finest fruits. We should appreciate the time in which we live and take full advantage of it. In summation, we all should be thankful that any idiot can blog.
