Yup, there is some strange wonderful propaganda going on here. It is also part of the problem by the way.

Okay, I do have a television, but all it does is play movies.

No cable, no satellite, no broadcast. It's a dumb television too. Without the DVD player and Video Cassette player plugged in, it can't do anything but display a big blue screen that says "No Signal."

It's great!

I have no idea who Kathy Griffin is, and I haven't seen or heard a political commercial in years, except for the crap that arrives in my mailbox and goes direct into the recycling bin, and stuff in the local newspaper I pay no attention to.
