Debbie Schlussel: Thanks, Obama Voters, For Suddenly Reading the Paper
I don't subscribe to the two major Detroit newspapers and instead go out and buy them every weekday morning. I do this because it gets me up and out early in the morning and is good for my daily routine.
Occasionally, though, my schedule is otherwise, like today. Today, I had a marathon movie screening schedule and didn't get my papers early. The last movie I was screening was so bad, I finally brought myself to walk out on it and went to buy the papers. But they were nowhere to be found. I went everywhere. Everyone was out.
I went to my favorite gas station owner, Paul, and he told me that since Obama won on Tuesday, he's been selling the Detroit newspapers out "in minutes." He said it was on the TV newscasts that the newspapers are selling out all over Detroit, when usually there are plenty left over.
Why? Well, the mindless Obama voters are finally starting to read a paper. Congrats. I think this says it all. They never ran out to buy the paper before, but suddenly now, it's important.
Thanks a million for suddenly caring after you've brought this on America, or rather, thanks 63 million.
Now, you decide to pay attention?!
