It's Jerry Springer democracy, folks! Made in the USA!! All that's missing is Steve the Bodyguard.
Sometimes I think authoritarian rule might be a good thing for ill-informed citizens who toe their party line 'til death. Primary season would be a lot less excruciating, and we could just rotate from one dipshit party to the next every four years.
All this freedom for Americans only allows us to freely exercise our stupidity and ignorance. The exercise in democracy is: One side bitches, one side moans and nothing gets done. Throw in some seriously skewed math, and you have the recipe for some congressional clusterfuck legislation.
My concern is always cost when it comes to government initiatives, but I'm not going to just yell and shake cardboard signs in front of the face of those I disagree with. Even if it is a solid stimulus package for construction paper manufacturers.
Do the words "constructive debate" mean anything anymore? And though it's good media fodder, do we really need to encourage cable news networks?
Here's a simple rule to follow for my fellow citizens: If you get your information from your favorite news anchor or radio host, step away from the microphone and proceed to shut the fuck up.
