Instead of reading the news and typing,\u00c2\u00a0the cats and I watched Combat and Rawhide DVDs all day. We needed the break after being subjected to two hours of Jack Bauer last night.\u00c2\u00a0He’s slipping – it took him an hour and 7 minutes to upgrade his weapons from teeth to stick to gun.<\/p>\n
And doesn’t Buchanan know by now that when Jack says “Trust me” Buchanan needs to trust him?<\/p>\n
It gives some small amount of pleasure that the Left hates Jack Bauer and his “black and white” view of the world. Like in Troy Patterson’s “One Nation Under 24”<\/a> whine fest in Slate about the shallowness of “24” fans.\u00c2\u00a0Somehow America being in love with a hero who can tell the difference between good and evil, and sees the value in sacrificing his life for his country makes\u00c2\u00a0the whole country\u00c2\u00a0“decadent”.<\/p>\n I think Patterson is just trying to cover up physical shortcomings, or his own cowardice to believe that there’s something more important than “me”.<\/p>\n Well, one more hour until the second two-hour decadencefest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
