Usually around 2:00 am until dawn, or on those Sundays in February once the Football Season is finished, especially during the years when Cable TV did not exist, American audiences would suddenly find themselves inundated with the dreaded INFOMERCIAL. Maybe the first time we watched them we laughed, but the 100th or millionth time we became exasperated, and our senses tried their best NOT TO BE DUMBED DOWN. I am certain, that many of us have a longer list than I have mentioned, but no matter the subject matter, if it was or is an INFOMERCIAL, it showcased the very stupidest of the stupid in American culture.
For me, the two Republican Debates for the office of President were nothing but the worst of the worst of any imagined INFOMERCIAL. (And as an aside, how in the world are they called DEBATES, when no clear topic is being debated) The Republican Salespeople on stage were trying to sell useless promises and promotions of ideas that when actually used, would accomplish absolutely nothing. The majority of these Republican Shysters tried to demonstrate some BIG SHINY OBJECT, but if you looked close enough all you got was a piece of junk. And to top it off as some of the worst INFOMERCIALS, the spokespeople were the hired hacks from FOX, where any truth goes to die, and any Lie Lives!
