This stuff is usually so transparent, the problem really is that people are catching their politics when they flip from "Keeping up with the Kardashians" to "So You Think You Can Dance" headlines are all they see. I am not trying to be condescending but it is hard to keep up with world events when you spend your days fighting to keep your family fed. No wonder so many people opt for escapism. 8077 Post 2008-09-26T18:05:31-04:00 210082 8668 2008-09-26T18:05:31-04:00
