You can feel the momentum building. CNN, MSNBC, Fox etc are gearing themselves up for the ratings war over Jenna Bush's wedding, and are about to subject us to relentless coverage of an event they won't actually be allowed to cover.

While the U.S faces massive food instability, imploding disasters in Afghanistan and Iraq and a looming environmental crisis, the wedding of Jenna Bush will take up precious hours of news coverage. The news media already ridiculed themselves by asking questions about the wedding during Laura Bush's speech on the humanitarian disaster in Myanmar, and will no doubt do the same today.

This plea is probably too little too late, but I am begging the media to leave the story alone. 30 seconds should suffice, and it should not be considered anything near to headline news.

We should all be happy for Jenna, but let's be honest, asides from Paris Hilton's latest up-skirts, it is about the least important piece of news on earth.

"liberals" and anyone who truly loves this country should be angry because the Bush/Chaney crime families have destroyed this country! They allowed 9/11 to happen so week-minded fools like you would let them do anything they want. They allowed(perhaps even planned) Osama Bin Laden's escape, instead invading Iraq so their partners in crime could make money,sacrificed over 4000 of our military, and crippled thousands more, then dump them like so much trash when they are finally allowed to come home. Because they have to have the threat there to keep YOU in line! This besides the fact that they rigged both elections and shouldn't even be in office. Besides that America is now responsible for destroying Iraq and allowing Al Qaeda into it. If you had a conscience you would be ashamed of how these fascists have tarnished America, They are destroying working Americans ability to earn a desent living, Because they think the working class are just slaves! Anybody who is not angry that about what is happening to this country, and doesn't hate those who cause such pain to increase their oun wealth and power, DOES NOT LOVE THIS COUNTRY!
