I just finished the 4th Season of the Wire. As a Libertarian I'm advocate for the legalization of drugs and for putting an end to public (government) schooling. These were, of course the two issues that drive the storyline for Season 4. Politically speaking, I couldn't help but thinking how much better the world would be without drug laws and public (government) schools, stealing money from citizens through taxes and lowering everyone's standard of living.

Getting away from politics, for a minute I will say the show was non-stop entertainment. At the end I felt like the director was making a profound statement about life. When the young man was shown living with the ex-policeman and his wife at the very end, for a moment it felt as if all the chaos and turmoil that had occurred had become worth it, just in that one moment.

The Wire had no political ideology, it was a pretty gray show. Whatever your political ideology, I'm sure you could have find some sort of point being made in the Wire in some season or episode.

Okay, I don't actually agree, but neither would I argue. We said what we wanted to say and now everyone else is entitled to talk back without some counterbitch finding them. So let's happily concede that all criticism stands and get to the real fun.

Because the thing I can't leave alone, the thing that makes me giddy as a schoolgirl is this: Whatever else I am -- a traitorous apostate to newsprint, the angriest hack in television, a kicker of small dogs -- you must acknowledge that I am now, also, the newly crowded King of Meta. That's right. I am your new lord sovereign of buried, latent, subtextual argument. I dragged it past sarcasm, past cynicism, and all the way to balls-out snide. Crown me up and kneel, ya bitches.
