i stopped @1:34... that`s when i snapped back into reality and asked myself: what the heck are you doing?

seeing how this video is exactly 1:38:37.. i dodged a long and boring bullet

so far the record is 1:34.. who beat that?

edit:

i think this video failed us..

Sparknotes please!

9:10 and then i gave up

if you give something the title of `Is the Media Failing In America` lets have a video on that topic that doesnt contain an introduction longer then the content itself!

Do you guys even know the ignorance you are preaching?
"Oh i watched 5 seconds! ZOMG I WIN!"

You would rather watch a cute video of a kitten for 30 seconds than watch an informative video of one of the greatest and bravest reporters alive? Dan Rather was the only reporter to cover the major global news story that ALL CANADIANS, AMERICANS, AND MEXICANS should be aware of. But no! We must stay ignorant, watch our television, eat our twinkies, and preach our faith. WAKE THE FUCK UP

^@importrx7 I hope there comments steer away the ignorant populace. Even the description was long enough so that someone with a short attention span would ignore it entirely. Thanks for stating the facts.

P.S. You are right importrx7 I got a video with Kittens playing with a Coca Cola carton, and would you believe it had 1206 votes already, and 32 comments....... They were cute though lol.
