When is Sorkin moving?

So, in the typical liberal's oh-so-fresh idea of a "ground-breaking" plot, the star of The Newsroom (I don't know his name ... it isn't worth the few extra seconds on Google to find out) has a little hissy fit and decides to condescend and enlighten the peasants (i.e. those who don't share his liberal hatred for America) about how horrible America is.

Yawn.

Aaron Sorkin is a skilled writer. But we shouldn't assume that the talent of writing well is necessarily accompanied by a grasp on reality or truth. Whining about the U.S. is the admission fee for those who would be stars of the left. But it's hypocritical and dishonest. You'll note that his fictional anchor (just like Sorkin himself), although whining horrible the U.S. is and stating that it's not the best country in the world, nonetheless have chosen to live in it. We can't blame the TV character too much - after all, his hypocrisy is written into the plot. But Sorkin has more than enough money to live anywhere on Earth he wants. Yet, oddly, he chooses to live in the country he's so fond of claiming to be disappointed with.

If it isn't the best country on earth, then by all means ... pack up and move. Others would have the excuse of not being able to. But we're overflowing with rich liberals who claim to think other countries are better but simply will not leave, no matter how much the rest of us wish they would.

Of course, this hypocrisy is standard fare for the liberal elite. They lecture us on global warming, too, even though they use up more gas, oil, etc. on their multiple mansions, private jets, etc. than any 100 normal Americans put together. They whine about the rich and corporations when, in fact, they are among the richest and their entire lives are built on benefiting from corporations.
