BEYOND BITTER?

Jay Allbritton of AOL writes...

"Tired of Democrats and Republicans? Heard all you want to hear about elections, troop levels and subprime something-or-others? Want to just stick you head under the sand until it's all over with for better or for worse? Are you beyond "bitter"? Well then the Apathy Party may be for you, my friend.

On the home page of Apathy Party '08 you have a simple choice--choice or whatever. Very clever, but something smells about this allegedly apathetic disorganization of people meandering by the fashionably hip current political scene to scoff or just yawn a bit before lackadaisically moving on to the next lame thing they don't care about--this website smacks of effort. This whole "movement" smacks of effort. They're even on Facebook, though just barely. Come on people, that account could have taken as many as ten minutes to create. Sounds like work to me."

Anyway, watch the official nonifesto here, or don't, whatever
