Great video. I hadn't seen it before. It makes some great points.

And I love Penn & Teller. I have their BS series on DVD that originally aired on Showtime. Good stuff.

they actually just this week did a whole episode on patriotism and preserving freedom. it was started under the guise of how mount rushmore is BS but it evolved into a much bigger thing than that about our freedoms and blind nationalistic patriotism being dangerous.

I did watch the first part on you tube as well so I could watch the entire episode from beginning to end. Good show!

I wish more people understood this concept. Here's hoping their highlighting these issues will get more people thinking!

I didn't realize they were still making new BS shows! Cool! I just have the first three seasons.

I've wanted to see them perform in vegas but haven't gotten to yet... one of these days!!

Thanks! :D
