Does it strike anyone else as strange and sad that Americans are so tuned in to the Superbowl and this halftime show and the commercials… while Syria’s government is murdering its citizens, and Egyptian riots are breaking out, and Europe is freezing, and Israel and Iran essentially have nukes pointed at one another?
