Get out your wellies!

As I'm more often than not either on my way to band practice at this point on a Sunday, or at least screaming through Timmy's in an attempt to not be overly late, I haven't had a chance to catch the posturing media circus that is Sunday morning American TV.
Sometimes I get the feeling that the reason American's love their football so much is that it means these douchebags get less airtime!
It's just a propaganda machine featuring loud voices, spouting mostly non-sensical, party-line drivel. Nothing of real consequence is ever said, and it basically just turns into the ultimate example of answering the question you prepared to answer, rather than the one that was asked... in short, it is a platform for the most (in my mind) annoying, yet prevalent, aspect of politics in North America.
The one highlight, for me at least, is the chance to hear supposedly highly educated (and likely highly paid) pundits throw around $10-dollar words.... but use them completely and totally wrong. Just an unending stream of hilarity. Oh, and another one of my favourites is when they decide to invent words by just adding prefixes that make it sound like they're smarter.... Alas, one of their most common bastardisations is gaining acceptance, to some degree.
I hate when the idiots win.
