Some things baffle me

[Freedom]

Does the volume of news coverage of certain things strike you as absurd, too?

Oh my yes. The wedding was only one of many. Why / how does Palin keep in the news? She doesn't know squat, and can't use the language so has to make words up. Paris Hilton. Oh yes, there are way too many absurd "news" stories.

I want NEWS as news, not entertainment time.

When I heard that she asked bill to lose 30 ppounds for the wedding I tuned out.

Ask him to lose the weight for himself and the family, ya ditz.

I am a huge CC fan, but only because whe's the kind of gal that you want to get drunk with and try to make her use curse words and do bad things.

IT's not even a real marriage. This was just to get money and prizes and to show the people she knew just how special she is.

Justin Bieber is another modern day "WTF".. I wnat to grab him by the hair and cut it.


But, I would rather hear all the commontion about CC than listen to Mel Gibson die of an aneurysm on tape.

The buffoonery of the littlest Clinton is better than listening to people feuding?

It wasn't 30 - it was 15.

Sorry guys, not being American I hadn't even heard about Chelsea Clinton's wedding. Can anyone point me in the direction of some good photos? I do love a good wedding.

Thank you, Grace. What a beautiful bride, and I am sure the wedding was lovely, despite the media circus.

I agree with Karen; that baffled me, too.

I also saw footage on the news of the Obama family going away for the weekend and I thought to myself that his older daughter (she's 12, I think) is looking less like a little girl and more like a pre-teenager. I bet she will be tall like her parents. Their younger daughter is sure cute, too.

Yes, I heard about this 30 lbs., too. He looked pretty good in the only wedding pic I saw.

With 24 hour news channels it needs to be filled with something.

I think that the wedding being in Rhinebeck was a temporary inconvenience which benefited the town in the long run. That part of the Hudson Valley is gorgeous, and is now on the map. I think Secret Service protection is extended to former as well as sitting Presidents; I'm not sure how long it's extended for the family. The thing I was amused by is how everyone was able to keep mum so well!
