Oblivious

By GottaLaff

We often wonder why the wrong people often get elected, or why the wrong people stay in office. We scratch our heads when we realize how few people bother to learn about the world. We get frustrated at the indifference that seems to have become more prevalent lately.

I flipped on the radio on the way to lunch with a couple of very well-educated, bright, caring teachers I work with. I heard the news about Tim Russert's death and told them how stunned I was.

Neither of them knew who he was.

Oblivious.
