It's a wonder CNN's anchors/hosts haven't swallowed their own tongues


having to report as News the Jackson Memorial event all day yesterday.

I can see CNN reporting highlights of the Memorial and reporting about the traffic jams; or Calif. being broke but coming up with money re: Memorial; or news of the investigation of his doctors and the strange drug found in the house; or even his Will and the legal problems.

CNN whored the Jackson Memorial.

Remember when CNN had the 'War Room' and when they painted a map of the Middle East on the floor and the anchors/hosts walked on it pointing out where we were killing people. and the large high tech. computer wall that showed the election, election, election stats. and John King? was the Master of the magic wall.

CNN whored the Jackson Memorial.

I have no respect for a man that dangled his baby over a balcony and smiled/laughed over it. nor did I respect Steve Irwin for using his baby to taunt a crocodile and smiled/laughed over it.

These two men were world wide Super Stars who whored their babies.

Sarah Palin is not a Super Star but she whored her Downs baby by bringing it on stage while she campaigned. the poor baby was stuck to one of her daughters chest or her shoulder. I'm sure I'm not the only woman that wanted to yell at the TV to 'get that baby off the stage'.

Sarah you whored your baby. and if you want to sue me for saying so, go ahead, I have no assets, none, nada, so sue me.

Wasn't Jackson the one who started touching his crotch and dry humping while dancing and singing. Then the Hip Hoppers started touching their crotches and dry humping while dancing and singing.

I still can't figure out the why of that.

P. Diddy is about to go on a big Tour with a new band. wonder if he will touch his crotch and dry hump as he dances and sings.

The other day I caught the last of a Maury Povich show where they were using DNA to prove which man was the father of a woman's baby. The woman was so glad the man she wanted was the father she jumped up, screamed, went down on her hands and knees, with her behind facing the audience, and dry humped several times. how bizarre is that?

I've been happy enough to dance around and sing but never thought to get on hands and knees to dry hump. do any of our DU women dry hump when they are extremely happy?

2. I'm happy they reported on the Memorial and aired it live
Now that it is over, they are back to normal. I really wish you whiners out there give it a rest.

10. maybe it was because of fear - I wanted to ask you what you meant


with 'ugh'. ugh for the whole post or something specific?

I wrote about many things re: the media and re: entertainment and re: social mores. and my personal opinion of super and not so super stars.
