Honey Boo Boo is an example of what Mitt Romney says is the private sector doing a better job than government can.

"Kids: Watch less Big Bird, more Honey Boo" -- This message brought to you by the Mitt Romney for President Campaign.

Are the Honey Boo-Boo people actually worse in some quantifiable way than the middle-class morons who have populated reality TV for over a decade? Or is it just more fashionable to pretend that the show heralds the fall of America than to admit that there's a lot of contempt for rednecks out there?

For me, the reprehensible thing about this show and the kid's beauty contest show it came from is that it is exploiting children. The Jersey Shore crew? All over 21, etc.

This poor kid is going to weigh 200 pounds before she's 12.

And yet, Toddlers and Tiaras did not, to my eye, get nearly the contemptuous response this show is getting, and that is all about the pageants. I see a class component here, and it bugs me.

I think Toddlers and Tiaras was slammed hard but there was no individual to focus on.
