While interviewing Henry Kissinger (my 9th grade crush), Charlie Rose leaned slowly towards Kissinger while going through facial gyrations that ranged from serious to contemplative Journalist. After what seemed like an eternity, he finally asked:

"Do you think this country is too focused on democracy?"

I wanted to go through the tv set and slap him right out of his seat back into that hospital bed he crawled out of.

No Charlie, we should avert our political eyes and explore non-functioning, poverty inducing political systems that don't work and have only served to maintain their status as a developing nation! That's what we should do... right? Only then will we be a decent, fair and open-minded nation... is that it?

What a freakin' moron! Sorry, had to get that out of my system, otherwise I'd end up with a coronary. I'll go back to working & crunching numbers now.
