Jaywalking

Last night I watched Jay Leno's "Jaywalking" and I was horrified. There is a reason I don't watch that regularly. It is depressing. These people couldn't name the Vice President, the current Presidential candidates, even the current President.

There was at one point a girl who I had some hope for. I thought, surely after all these people who can't name who the VP is, she will be able to get it right? I was sorely mistaken. It turns out she was the worst one. When asked who the current President of the United States is, she could not answer!!! Her defense? She's not that political. Not that political?! You don't have to be "political" to know who the President is!! You know, he's the one that got us into the blood bath quagmire that is Iraq and helped drag the economy in the shitter and so on and so forth. How can you not know who the least popular President EVER is? It's not as if he's an unremarkable President like Garfield or something (and I don't mean remarkable in a favorable way). It's just sad. I had kind of blanked this out of my mind until a moment ago I saw Jay Leno coming on and suddenly it all came rushing back like the nightmare that it is. I can only hope these people aren't truly that uninformed and that they were putting on an act to be on TV. For once I am hoping they are attention hungry media whores rather than complete dumb assess!!
