Poll question: How has your life changed since the MJ verdict? |
|
Could the news media focus on anything more inane? Oh look, Dean said something dumb again, that's a good distraction too! Is there any real news on the TV "news" networks at all? Anything?
I think I heard there's a war going on somewhere. I wonder if anyone was killed in it recently. Who knows. :shrug:

I found out today I am a rabid supporter of child molestation because I didn't propose mutilating or lynching someone who had failed to be convicted of that which he was accused.

4. No, I predicted a not guilty verdict |
|
And not because I thought Michael Jackson wasn't guilty.

7. Hey, finding her is that governments top priority! |

But, a healthy shrug of indifference overcame it.
