Either that or the questions are particularly lame tonight.
I'm thinking it's the latter.

No but it sure is a good diversion for the populace... sort of like the games were for the romans.
In a nation obsessed with frivolities, this is a great diversion to keep them from considering reality.
But heck it can still be fun to watch. LOL so long as you know what is really going on, one can be a political animal and enjoy the frivolities!
A quote for you Ideaman,
"As democracy is perfected, the office of president represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron." - H.L. Mencken

More people vote for the American Idol than the American president.

Where do you find the answer count? I've always wanted to know.
American Idol is fun, but it's a misstatement when people claim that "more people vote for the idol than vote for president." The reason is that you can vote more than once on Idol.

No, but it's more interesting to people. I bet more people vote for American Idol than they do for president.

American Idiot is the real answer;
"American Idiot"
Don't want to be an American idiot.
Don't want a nation under the new media
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind f*ck America.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.
Well maybe I'm the f*ggot America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along to the age of paranoia.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.
Don't want to be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information age of hysteria.
It's calling out to idiot America.
Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.
