Try to Pay Attention, you Squirrels

According to a New York Times poll,

younger people are more supportive of the war and the president than any other age group

This strikes me more as a reflection of the quality of our educational system than the state of our political discourse.

Forty-eight percent of Americans 18 to 29 years old said the United States did the right thing in taking military action against Iraq

Obviously ignorance and apathy are aligned with the forces of darkness. This is too sick to even blame on the Fox News people. Clearly these youths are completely out of touch with reality. Too much grand theft auto and perez hilton and not nearly enough time with a newspaper. Maybe we could get some news into them via text message or something.

Egads, you squirrels—try to pay attention.
