Cynical Nation

24 may well be the least politically correct show on television, and we fans have been treated to four hours of it in the past two days. I'm really sort of attached to the Mencken quote at the top of this site, but, like K-Lo, I'm also enamored of this gem from 24's season opener:

"Spare me your sixth-grade Michael Moore logic."

UPDATE: Cool as the season premier was, I must agree with Iowahawk's comment on Treacher's site:

A moron can see where this plot is going:

The so-called "Muslim" terrorists will turn out to be Presbyterians, who are actually working for Hillabortun, the evil multinational company controlled by the Secretary of Defense. He has staged his own "kidnapping" in an elaborate plot to stage a coup/scrap the Constitution/raise oil prices. The world is saved thanks to Bauer, with assists from the "terrorist" kid (who, in a plot twist, coverts to real Islam after ratting on his fake-Muslim treasonous parents), and SecDef's illegally tortured hippie son.
