re: #208 Irenicum

I’m sorry, but 24 is fascism lite. That show has popularized torture as a technique of statecraft so much that West Point has specifically asked Fox TV to stop the torture scenes, since so many of the new students at West Point are coming in thinking that this is official US policy. Yes. They are coming in actually thinking this. The instructors are constantly having to tell their students that no, 24 does not accurately represent governmental policy. So, needless to say, I’m not such a big fan of 24. Shows like that actually hurt our national interests.

I stopped watching it when it became predictable.
