Opinion

Isn't really as hard to distinguish from fact
as news shows would have one believe.

Nor is blithering idiocy from
that which is easily verifiable..

if one doesn't mind getting up off one's ass
every once in a while.

Yes, there are some very opinionated people in the modern world. Blithering idiocy is mainly the domain of politicians though, I feel. A gritty and refreshing write!
