How Marionettes Destroyed the World

This little link goes out to everyone who thinks conservatives are the only ones without a sense of humor.

Kirk the Jerk from work says he read the movie as a Bush admin wet dream and found no real criticism of the left at all. He loved it. Roger Ebert, on the other hand, thinks the encompassing nihilism of the film is dangerous, as does Sean Penn.

When I hear about this movie undermining political missions and being unamerican I can't help but laugh at the Alanis-style irony of it all. Maybe that's the point. And if it is... whoa. That's heady.

A quick note for the postscript:

I generally agree with Parker and Stone's suggestion that there's no shame in not voting. The catch, I believe, is that you have to A.) Register to vote B.) Must make vocal at some point why you're not voting. If you never got a good understanding of the candidates, fine. If you did and they repulse you, great. Just let it be known.
