Six years ago, the American public saw one of the most brutal battle scenes in film history. Despite the fact that Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan reached across several audiences, left and right, and was much talked about and led to a very public reconsideration of going to war for the right reasons and what our boys were in there for, the American people still voted for Bush.
Ergo, the American public has no memory in cases of exemplary artistic influence.
Also: head hurts.
