1. You didn't seriously think they'd stop it, didya?
When it's so fucking popular? Fox is f-ed up, but they're not stupid when it comes to twisting the minds of their sheeple drones.

2. I loathe that show.
And I'm sick of the total schlock it produces, too.

outside of the show?

12. Judging by the popularity of Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and
Bo Bice, I'd say "yes."

5. I have not watched any of them.
I caught a few minutes of it one time and that British guy made me want to stick pins in my eyes.

11. More distraction for the simple sheeple
"Whaddya mean wiretapping American citizens? Nothin' to see here - go watch something mindless and meaningless. It's more important who wins this moronic show than what your government's doing. Don't ask questions. Move along now..."

:grr:

13. A little mindless entertainment is not a bad thing..
If you balance it with the important stuff.
