I've got a few issues that are really bothering so it's time to drag the Soapbox out of the closet.
Iran
I'll be quite honest when I say this, I couldn't give two shits about the Middle East or any of the countries contained there. Am I an inconsiderate ass? The only good thing to come from the Middle East is oil as far as I'm concerned and the residents of the Middle East have been fighting for thousands of years and they'll continue to fight till the day the world ends. I'm no fan of the war in Iraq, but I do find it funny that so many people who decried our actions there are now speaking out in favor of action in Iran. WHAT????? The only difference in the situation in Iraq and Iran is an "N" and a "Q". Both were lead by charismatic men who really don't seem to care much for their population. All the Americans calling for the head of Ahmadinejad need to remember taking down Hussein in Iraq and the backlash that Bush received for it.
Adoption
When did it become fashionable to adopt children outside of this country? I'm so tired of reading about Brad and Angelina or Madonna or any other celebrity going to another country to adopt a child. There are thousands of children here in Brad and Angelina's home country of America and I'm sure there are thousands in the UK where Madonna lives that are desperate for a permanent home.
Jon and Kate Plus 8 minus 12 divided by 14 times 10
Seriously, who gives a shit about these two? They're going to make some "big" announcement Monday night. I wish that announcement was that they were giving the kids to their grandparents and disappearing. They say Television adds 10 lbs, but in the same line of thought, I'm sure that television adds 10 units of stress as well. They've exploited these children for years and used them to get news exposure and free TV time and it's truly time for it to end. You can't raise a child when you act like a child. Sorry for the harshness, but people like this don't deserve the title "parent".
