Rome is burning
Wednesday September 24, 2008
If the “American empire” is indeed at its end, as Iran’s president claims, we’ll have no one to blame but ourselves.
What are CNN.com’s most popular stories six weeks from the election for president, in the middle of one of the country’s biggest financial situations, during wars in Iraq and Afghanistan? Lindsay Lohan and Clay Aiken coming out of the closet, the first couple to get booted from the new season of Dancing with the Stars, Nicole Kidman’s pregnancy and a chain of Christian bookstores not selling a book about female pastors.
Nothing to see here, folks … Bread and circuses for everyone … Carry on …

Damn, where have I been to miss the Lohan story? Sad but true, most Americans won’t miss an episode of Dancing with the Stars but couldnt care less about watching a half hour news program. Maybe that is better though since the media is biased anyways.
