American life politicized huh? And I always thought we were de-politicized.
I find it hard to have a political conversation with just about anybody I know or interact with in real life. I don't know if flag waving patriotism is actual politicization or a form of de-politicization. What example can you think of from children's cartoons Wojtek? -- http://left-wingwacko.blogspot.com/
