I find this comic strip really interesting because of the fact that it is making fun of how people are so unaware of what is going on in politics. People are oblivious to what is going on in politics because of the fact that to most American citizens, politics is extremely boring and dry. It is actually shows like "Saturday Night Live," "Jay Leno," "David Letterman," and such, is where most American citizens get their source of political news. People just want to laugh and have fun but when they are being informed of what is going on in the politics like how C-SPAN presents it, people just being straight out uninterested. The bad thing about soft news is the fact that it is very biased and polarizes the way people think.

I think that's one of the dangers of this election. People elected Bush because they thought he was just a normal guy you'd want to sit down and have a beer with. Is that the kind of person we really want for president though?
