ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh, what a SCOOP!! Chelsea Clinton gets to say, "YES, I WAS A MILE AND A HALF FROM THE TOWERS, JUST LIKE 2 MILLION OTHER PEOPLE IN MANHATTAN. MY MOM WAS IN WASHINGTON PUSHING A RABID SOCIALIST, PRO-ABORTION AGENDA, AND DADDY WAS IN AUSTRALIA CHASING KANGAROOS IN SKIRTS."

Gee, what a GREAT interview that'll be. Yawn.

What I find offensive about this is why are the thoughts or experiences of Chelsea Clinton in any way noteworthy? Millions of actual New Yorkers (or even people like myself who lived there for a span of time) have stories and thoughts and have lost friends or loved ones, yet they aren't writing 1200 words for Talk. I love how the Clintons get everything their way - no one can criticize Chelsea, or talk about anything to do with her, but when she wants to abuse her quasi-celebrity on her terms, then it is ok. I am really disgusted by this. I want stories from people who ran fifty flights of stairs to get out of the building or people who spoke to their loved ones on the phone seconds before the Towers collapsed, not Chelsea's drivel about how she was going to maybe, had kind of thought about taking a walk or a run near the Towers that day and could maybe possibly have even, oh my! been in danger herself! Why am I continually able to be further disgusted by these people?
