If you take a midnight drive a mile down a rural highway, at the end of the mile, you'll likely have a few bug splats all over your windshield. Yet if you walk down that same mile, you'll only see a few passing bugs and you likely have none smashed on your forehead (except for a pesky mosquito or two).

The windshield full of bug splat is analogous to the predictable practice of the PRESSident. The PRESSident drives around in the dark recesses of our society using its glaring headlights to attract society's bugs into it's path. Yes, occasionally a beautiful delicate butterfly will be part of the splat..:(

The bug splat that has collected on the camera lens of the PRESSidential spotlight is then splashed all over the TVs through out the nation. As a result, the most bubbas watching TV think bug splat is a huge problem in their everyday life. In reality it is only a problem if you are traveling at high speeds down a dark road trying to flush bugs into the PRESSidential light of day.

----------------------------

Yes, there are problems in any society, but generally not in the proportions the TV viewing public is exposded to as PRESSidential bug splat. What can be said of bug splat broadcasting is that it is successful in filling the minds of many unsuspecting bubbas with bug splat. It also does sell paper towels, baby wipes and window cleaner. Which is the purpose of it all, as far as the PRESSident goes.

So, in conclusion, if you watch a lot of TV, beware of bug splat filling your brain with lots of distorted observations about the health of our society. It is suggested that you regularly turn your TV off and take a walk around the block in search of real bug splat in your own neighborhood.

If you don't find any, 'go figure!'...
