I'm a crack-ho lazy mom who vacillates between feelings of inadequacy and delusions of grandeur. I am not bothered by kid snot, garlic breath or Bob Dylan's voice. But pinch me with your toes and I will probably kill you.

Brucey Baby

OK. Go to this site, look at the Bruce Willis piece:

http://entertainment.msn.com/news/article.aspx?news=135781

And I thought entertainment media loved him. Apparantly they prefer him divorced and randy as opposed to patriotic in any way. I will quote them here :

"Peculiar thing back home is that the liberal media was trying to portray it as a bad war," he (Willis) said. "But being over here just a couple of days, seeing how well our troops and the allied troops are being received here, I think the Iraqi people are happy we're here." The thing is, according to the World Entertainment News Network, well-off Willis traveled to Iraq by helicopter and didn't actually see many Iraqi citizens, many of whom still have no water, electricity or food."

What strikes me the most amusing about this article is that their big giggle at Willis is all "...according to the World Entertainment News Network..." a reliable source of information if ever there was one. Does this news source have any presence in Iraq much less any credibility? How can I take their word that they know for certain that many Iraqis are without water, electricity, or food when their bread and butter is made from discussing whether Britney Spears had a boob job or Hugh Grant had a blow-job? Celebrities are given carte blanche to drool over the rights of animals, and J Lo's ass, but God forbid they want to do anything truly humane like kick the living shit out of a real life and possibly accessible Hitler. "Bad Celebrity. Bad. You broke the shallow celebrity code and now you will pay." I'm hearing all of that in a French accent. I don't know why, but it sounds really funny. Over and Out.
