I do not watch TV at home. A few months ago, I sat at a bar to drink a little Canadian Club. The TV was turned to the Food Channel, which I find to be obnoxious in its own right. Gordon Ramsey was mentoring children in that particular episode.

Once, I heard an otherwise intelligent woman say that Faux plays at her home all day. Her husband must have brainwashed her.

Those of the firefighters who vote Democratic probably spend little time in that common area of the firehouse. I wish that I could see signs of the indoctrination ebbing, but I do not.
