While I agree that the money the government spent on the promotion is rediculous, I kinda' like the color scheme. Still, there definitely much better ways to waste 20 mil on, like the homeless, for instance. Sometimes I think that its overrun by fashion bimbos like the protagonist from Legally Blonde who think that a bad nail job for a first lady resembles a national tragedy, completely oblivious to death and violence.

On a similar note: do you guys watch "Family Guy?" Adam West (the original "Batman" from the TV show) is the mayor of Quahog, the setting of the sitcom. Anyway, he's portrayed as a very paranoid guy, who spends thousands of the city's budget, trying to catch the people who STEAL HIS WATER when he waters his plants or runs the sink. lol

At the end of the episode, upon getting into bed with Luke Perry, he said, "If I do this, do you promise to stop stealing my water?" I love that show. It's hillarious, and it actually makes statements. This reminds me of South Park, though. Underlying political and philosophical statements, cleverly veiled in the guise of a simple, shock-comedy sitcom.

Anyway, I've ranted enough.

"So this Zealot comes to my door, all glazed eyes and clean reproductive organs, asking me if I ever think about God. So I tell him I killed God. I tracked God down like a rabid dog, hacked off his legs with a hedge trimmer, raped him with a corncob and boiled off his corpse in an acid bath. So he pulls an alternating-current taser on me and tells me that only the Official Serbian Church of Tesla can save my polyphase intrinsic electric field, known to non-engineers as 'the soul.' So I hit him. What would you do?" -- Warren Ellis, Transmetropolitan
