if there's anything more ridiculous than entrenched party politicians mouthing platitudes about ethics reform, it's watching "moral" crusaders crusading against tv entertainers. let's all be clear here: both the outraged and their supposed outragers are in no other business than the attraction of attention, no more, and no less, and the only possible loser of this pointless argument is going to be someone named conan.

yep, just as the public continues to play the dupe in propping up the crooked monetary side of party politics, so we also continue to click on the she-said-he-said links about what was, lets face it, a pretty lame joke that would have been properly and quickly forgotten if only any of us had a working sense of non-humor. and so we're all continuing to get exactly what we deserve.

the right answer, IMHO, is to turn off the set, or at least change the channel to something both more entertaining and more worthwhile. i bet the technique would work for lame late night shows, too. ;-)
