Unifnished thoughts about politics

I’ve been reading but don’t have the mental energy to put together coherent opinions. Here’s what I’ve got.

• Read this: The People vs. Jeremiah Wright. Brilliant piece on, essentially, why I think political coverage is crap.

• Political coverage in America is a disgrace because the media has an inherent desire to create conflict because they assume that conflict is the only thing that gets viewers.

• American voters are pampered. It’s embarrassing to live in a nation where it’s political suicide to tell voters when they are wrong.

• I am sick of the democratic primary.

• I would probably not be sick of the democratic primary if I felt like anyone were discussing issues instead of trying to turn democracy into one big freak show.
