American Idol Outrage (TSG)

Just think if this many people cared as much about the war in Iraq or our lying goverment officials, we wouldn't be in the mess we are now!

2. How weird
I can go to domesideways.com but my network firewall at work doesn't like TSG.

3. My God - people getting so worked about
people who, though I've never watched the show, perhaps all suck?

And yet, no outrage when the supreme court chose our president.

And yet, no outrage when FOX so obviously lies, falsifies, and leaves out truth in reporting on things like wars, elections, terrorist attacks, etc.

Sometimes, I think America has about 250 million people who are too ignorant to be allowed to stay here.

5. Read the chemical engineer's screed
Not only bad grammar and typos, but just a pathetic life:

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/idolletters4.html

The idiot made 12 calls per minute for 3 hours before getting through to cast his vote in an insane TV contest?

Excuse me, but I wonder if he spent as much energy voting for president.

And doesn't America have better things to do? Are there really 45 million people who are willing to spend that much time, and spend that much money, just to give money to the FOX, so they (the people) can have a vote in some televised TV talent show?

Disgusting.

But then, people pay big money just to wear t-shirts with corporate logos, so they can advertise the corporation that they support.
