I don't give two shits about that poor Bhutto lady, or Bin Laden's death... [View All]

when I'm a few weeks away from potential financial ruin, health is shot, no insurance to speak of, no job on the horizon, and I'm sure there are more than a few DUrs who have it even worse, judging from the Christmas threads where some DUrs had horrors going on in their personal lives...

Really, in the end, do I CARE if these people live or die when I could be in the Street? Does it even matter if the Corporate bought and Paid For Media discusses Bhutto's death, or whether Paris Hilton is hanging out with Brit, while good and decent people struggle to get medications, or freaking DIE themselves?

Sorry, but let's have a little perspective here.. Some of us in the Peanut Gallery are STARVING, right Here in America, and before people's very EYES..

Its amazing how as soon as the Media Delineates WHAT everyone SHOULD be Talking about, we are off to the races Right Here on the DU, and its the same crowd that excoriates the damn Media at the same time..

Please feel free to discuss other subjects at any time, like helping out your fellow man, making sure OUR Brothers and Sisters are Alive and Well.

You will never meet Bin Laden OR Paris Hilton... At least you never see them at the same time, in the same nightclub, why IS That I wonder? :)

God Bless that poor woman, may her family find Happiness, and may she rest in Peace...
