If people can be swayed by a movie, then what does it matter? They can be swayed by the evening news, by their families, or by crazy people ranting and raving in the streets. Why not just shut the entire country down for a year, and not let anyone have access to anything. The outside world, including the opinions of those who live in it, will have an impact on the way someone does something.

The Daily Show rips into Bush & Co on a regular basis. They don't do it because they're Democrats, but because there's entertainment value in it. But they also make the current government look like fools. That sways voter opinion, too. Let's take that off the air until the end of the year...
