I feel sorry for you....
I really do...
you have no idea how informed or active I am....
you are acting like a lib....you really are.. whining, assuming... attacking character and intelligence....
I DISAGREE WITH YOU...and you cannot stand it...
if I take an HOUR out of the week and enjoy a TV show then I am some how guilty of being uninformed and only want to be entertained?
I actually log off of FR sometimes and read books to my kids... I even go out and Karaoke....I do all kinds of things..
I hope you calm down and stop getting so worked up over what I do with my time..although your obsession with me was quite endearing at first...it is now getting kinda creepy....
You sit there pretending that supporting popular entertainment doesn't have consequences.
Once again, 24 has NEVER shown a storyline where the Islamists act alone.
Do you have a problem with that in this day and age where we are in a death struggle with Islamists?
Are you unable to understand that Hollywood works long and hard to undermine the battle we are facing?
Oops, sorry. You would rather be entertained.
Never mind my hectoring.
Promote 24.
Promte the notion that there is always someone in the White House that is involved with terrorist plots.
Never worry about how that enforces public attitudes about terrorism.
Never mind how that plays into 9-11 conspiracy theories.
As long as Jack Bauer gets to kneecap someone.
Just sit back and enjoy the show.
It's your RIGHT to be entertained without worrying about those annoying consequences.
No, I realize that we are at war.
And shows like 24 seek to entertain us away from a realization of who we are fighting.
And you could care less as long as you are entertained.
My posts stand for themselves.
I am no prude.
But I also realize there are subversive shows on TV.
The blatant ones are obvious.
The West Wing. Commander in Chief.
But 24 is also a Hollywood product. It will suck you in because Jack can do the things to terrorists that you think should be done.
While working non-stop to change our perceptions of the real enemy.
But as long as you are happy and entertained, why the hell not? LOOK, JACK ALMOST CUT THAT GUY'S EYE OUT! WAY TO GO!
