Not good. This is going to be brutal.

I will laugh when the idiots who watch TV cannot buy Busch beer, ribs and the dope they smoke to watch ball games and other idiocy on TV. ALL of TV supports Obama and Islam. Fools think Saudi Prince Al Waleed’s Fox is any better. It really isn’t.

From "Bread and Circuses" to "Beer and Football". How far we've come. To those not familiar with the phrase, here's some of what Wikipeia says about it:

This phrase originates from Rome in Satire X of the Roman poet Juvenal (circa 100 AD ). In context, the Latin phrase panem et circenses (bread and circuses) is given as the only remaining cares of a Roman populace which has given up its birthright of political involvement. Here Juvenal displays his contempt for the declining heroism of his contemporary Romans.[1]: Roman politicians devised a plan in 140 B.C. to win the votes of the poor; By giving out cheap food and entertainment, politicians decided that this policy of "bread and circuses" would be the most effective way to rise to power.
