What's wrong with the world?


I know it's not Sunday, but, the news is sparse so here I am wondering what's next? Gone are the days when people felt a bit sorry for idiots and ignored them..now the village idiots get their own TV show on Bravo or the E channel. In a world where John McCain can approve messages comparing Barack Obama to ParAss Hilton and Britney Spears and people are more worried that McCain pissed of major republican party funder, Barron Hilton than the fact that the stunt was pathetic and tasteless, what am I to find funny today, with the exception of Chelsea Lately? In a world where the chief of the Los Angeles police department makes Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson look like rocket scientists and Heidi and Spencer can afford a 12 million dollar mansion..I find little to laugh about.

The world now worships idiots and the stupider you are, the more money and fame you can have. It is no longer shameful to be a moron, it's accepted and expected. Movies about morons and moronic subjects make millions. Singers who can't sing get recording contracts, actors who can't act get movie roles and every other idiot has their own You Tube channel. We have a president who is puzzled by lens caps and children's books and people with plastic breasts campaigning to save chickens. The dumbing down of the world is not in my favor. I am disgusted with it all today, but, I'll be back tomorrow. Don't forget to send in your Sunday photos...I think we all look foreword to that here. I do. Have a good day.

If we didn't have all these ignorant,talentless jackasses preening about and acting like fools, what would you write about every day??!!!

Just try real hard not to think too much about it ebcause if you do, the gross injustice of it all will overwhelm you and give you a headache!

My neice's brother-in-law is Viggo Mortenson. Now he is a role model. He stays away from Hollywood as much as posible, is rarely in the magazines, lives with his son and doesn't feel the need to have a plastic female on his arm to be happy, and is a truly intelligent soul.

But the public would be real unhappy if the majority of the stars acted like that. We not only allow the stulidity, we encourage them to exist. So, the stu;idity will continue.

its good dd that you show our leaders and role models for what they really are, fake, shallow, ignorant..... with your keen insight you are providing the public with a good reality check.

I contacted my cable company to ask that "E" channel be completely removed, they said 'no' but gave me free Showtime for 3 months. thanks?

Check the fall lineup you will find idiot after idiot getting a reality show. George Foreman? why?

BBC America scrapped plans for the Grace Jones Show (which I know would have been a fantastic hot mess!)
