Why are these headline news items? I'm sick of it. Let loose your who cares list here.

No commentary, just "who cares if [insert exact headline].

Who cares if Britney Spears weds -- but will annul it?
Who cares if Rose admits to betting on baseball?

Who cares what celeb X thinks of the war or anything politically for that matter.

As much as we are bombarded with 'experts' from all the news outlets, do we really need to know what actors or singers think? These people have spent their entire lives on a movie set, party, or rehab center.
The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today..FDR..
Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth...G.W.
Everyone wants a voice in human freedom. There's a fire burning inside of all us...L.W.

Over the weekend, Saturday night to be more specific, American scientists managed to land a new rover on the surface of Mars. The signal is strong and soon this NASA ATV will start prowling around the surface of Mars looking for some evidence that life may exist or may have existed on that planet. So .. we wake up Sunday morning and what is the lead story on many newscasts? Britney Spears got married in Las Vegas. This celebrity culture that dominates our nations is getting more absurd and more dangerous all the time. More people in this country can identify a picture of Britney Spears than can identify Dick Cheney. How does a free Republic survive this nonsense?

Here is a fantastic link to learn more about the Mars 2004 Mission:

Britney is much better looking than Cheney, but the jury is out on who can sing better.

I read with, vague interest, the Pete Rose story (he's going to get in the HOF, IMO) but the Britney crap is like syrup of ipecac to me. I can't believe the nation's collective IQ has degenerated to the point that this s**t is headline news.

I do care about the Pete Rose story, and I don't even care about sports. I'll start another thread, to keep this one about the stuff we don't care about. Oh, never mind.

This dude was LUCKY for 55 hours, and said
I'M A SLAVE FOR YOU... Britney said
YOU DRIVE ME CRAZY. He said
HIT ME BABY ONE MORE TIME, and STRONGER! Then she said
I'M NOT A GIRL, NOT YET A WOMAN. He said
OOPS, I DID IT AGAIN!

Who cares about...what any professional athlete has to say about a game before or after it happens? "It was a good ball game. We gave 110% We left it out there on the court. We just take every game as it comes."

I think it was CNN that postponed coverage of the 40th anniversary of JFK's death when Michael Jackson was arrested ...

As a side comment, as nauseating as celebs' comments on politics may be, I think that objection by anti-war and other celebrities reminds Americans that its okay to dissent. A shameless plug, that at the very least will spare you a longer diatribe from me: http://www.thejusticeonline.com/main.cfm?include=detail&storyid=411638

By the way, where is Big May to defend the right?!

on Channel 4 last night the top story was the weather. It was going to be in the teens overnight! In January! Who knew??

The second story was the WTC memorial.

How's that for perspective?

If anyone cares, "Crossing Over With John Edward" was cancelled.

When they told him, did he say, "I knew that was going to happen"?
