I wonder is life a joke? Does anyone have to be funny to be erudite, perceptive, knowledgeable or otherwise successful?
Sounds like it from the childish prattle I've been reading... sdbest?

I was recently ranting about the idiocy displayed in the latest (so called) debate on Utube. Are we descending into the uninformed juvenile mental abyss where every issue has to be presented as funny or entertaining to catch the interest of the voters? I hope not or the nation is doomed to laugh itself to death! I hope that humor is not important to our nations business ? It's pretty hard to laugh when a bridge collapses or a Muslim decapitates a journalist.

Mr Vicchio speaks with 'straight tongue'. Unfortunately IMNSHO he speaks to an uninformed, liberally subjective bunch of gullible believers who have been lulled into near insanity. Lulled by a bunch of propagandistic politicians and a sensation seeking press. The 'catch phrases' which are legion in the media, (dare I say among leftists) spread the insanity. How often have we seen/read the ,"Bush lied people died'",type comments. Eureeka! Bush didn't lie after all. But does it matter?

It is a given in the advertising business that repetition sells. If we repeat the catch phrases or clever slogans often enough even mature people begin to believe them. Careful folks, remember newspapers are written on the 11 year old level so most reader can understand the story line? Are you too readers?

Thus we play the fools with the time, and the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us.
