    Crazy and right wing and I guess coherent to its worldview. But mostly bizarre.

    The author draws some interesting comparisons between the movie and current day politics, right up until he goes off the rails entirely with a shrill screed against "leftist culture".

    I agree with dabob - people can read anything they want to if they squint hard enough.

    Lotso and the Sunnyside day care bunch pretend to be a welcoming place, but really, they only care about their own, happy to let the other toys suffer. It's a selfish, I got mine so off to the dumpster with you mindset.

    See? Ain't so tough.
