Where's a good editor when you need one?

Taken from today's New York Times:
"As contentious as war itself"? Uhm. Or maybe not? If this country has gotten to the point where a piece of entertainment is debated as seriously as other topics that should be on the national agenda, like immigration, national debt, the death penalty or, oh say, war, where men and women are risking their lives every day for their country, we are in very deep trouble. I can't decide if this is emblematic of the fouled up priorities in America today, or just if it's just a really lousy lead-in on Mr. Itzkoff's part.

The full story is at (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/22/weekinreview/22itzkoff.html?_r=1&no_interstitial&oref=slogin). It doesn't get much better after the first sentence. Oh, and typo in the last paragraph, by the way.
