I went past my daughter's LiveJournal site…okay, it was her fan fiction site and I got nosy…and caught a discussion of American Idol (which I do not watch much as I do not watch any other "reality" TV show). In particular, they were discussing how Latoya got booted.
One of her British friends opined:
Between the President and American Idol, I feel that there is an extremely good case to be made that the American Public should not be trusted with anything.
