And that's why I asked, above, if this kind of hypocrisy is really just an aspect of the DC stage persona. Are we failing to get the joke?

I can't say I ever started. I watched one episode of AD (I think that was the show . . .), we don't have cable, and I frankly never heard of the guy until I saw his name here. So all I know is what I read here.

Nice parody, right down to the spelling errors.

Aliedators sounds like a reality show, where the winner gets a green card.

Randy, you should no better. They never actually show anything good on MTV anymore.

My wife and I are both history buffs and naturally skeptical of conspiracies, so we needed an industrial crane to suspend our disbelief. Nevertheless, we really enjoyed the first one, particularly Justin Bartha's character.
