I think I know why you might be upset by this and I am sympathetic. But I recognize decent satire when I see it. Long before I was political, I was obsessed with Mad Magazine, Wierd Al Yankovic, Naked Gun, Airplane, Hot Shots, Saturday Night Live and other such stuff. That was my bread and butter.<br /><br />Political stuff and conspiracy stuff didn't really hit me until well after college, and that was only after politics got into things it shouldn't have, like the Patriot Act, TSA, going after Howard Stern, endless war, censorship, religious right, politically correct left, etc.<br /><br />For the longest time, I ignored politics because I thought it was just a bunch of pompous windbag stuff and jerks voting themselves free stuff. But then politics didn't ignore us. Now I see it as something to exterminate, like a poisonous pest.<br /><br />But I totally appreciate your take on things. The only reason I got into stuff like Ron Paul, Alex Jones, Libertarians, Lew Rockwell, others is because they seem to be on the side of removing politics from hassling everyone else.
