Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Got a Rake? Sure!

And 36% oppose bombing it, which could be interpreted that they, too, believe it a real place. Neither chunk of voters especially comes out smelling like unicorn farts in all that.Wolter wrote:Did we also talk about the fact that 19% of Democrats also wanted to bomb Agrabah?JennyB wrote:Oh, good.
