So many things have happened in the last week, I don't know where to start.
Michael Jackson is arrested, charged with child molestation. Sigh. More stupidity from all involved.
Let's assume, just for the sake of doing so, that Jackson is innocent. Why in the heck would he, after the 1993 charges, put himself in a position to get sued/charged AGAIN? I know he's got some "issues" (a bit like saying Charles Manson had "issues"), but is he really that stupid?
I guess so. Never underestimate the stupidity of the rich and famous.
Now, whether he is guilty or not, what kind of parent lets their child sleep in bed with ANY adult man (other than the father), particularly given the 1993 allegations? Either this parent was very stupid, or this parent was willing to risk their child's welfare and safety to make a large amount of cash.
As I said, nitwittery enough to go around.
In other news, this ad is being criticized by Democrats who still insist that one can oppose the President's war on Terror and still be 'patriotic'.
Sorry, Tom, but I'm not buying it. Democrats have insisted they are just as patriotic as the next guy while calling Iraq a quagmire and questioning Presidential policies vis-a-vis the War on Terror at every turn. I expect we will see terror attacks increase in Iraq over the next year, and that many of those attacks are a direct result of the Democrat's public and incendiary attacks on our military and foreign policy.
The blood of those soldiers is on the Democrat's hands, as far as I am concerned.
