Don't even bother with their views. I have an actress niece who is so incredibly silly that she spouts her adament disdain for the right and everyone who is conservative. However, when you ask her why, or challenge her position with facts, she cannot back up her stand.

Of course, this is a girl who didn't know that Taiwan is an island off Mainland China and thought it was "sort of" around Hawaii.

Most of them are complete and utter ninnies.

My questions are why are these people such a force for public policy? Why are the politicians listening to them? And finally, why are Americans so willing to lay down their responsibility to foster good citizenship and protection of our progeny, and allow their silliness to pervade the country?

BTW, I think the exposure of her breast as viewed by them as a shocking moment, was so childish as to be beyond my comprehension.

It was akin to a child urinating in the snow with his penis to spell his name.

They are too silly, too vapid, too immature, too self-absorbed, too ego-ridden for words.

Too many disturbed people revere the cult of "celebrity." Hollywarped forcefeeds its acolytes with vapid TV entertainment shows. Broadcasting the Grammys and the Oscars also sedates the celebrity cult. Hollyweirdos encourage putting braindead celebs like Jackass, Madonna, and Britney on pedestals b/c it sells tickets and CDs, etc.
