This excerpt says it all:
“Within 24 hours, no primate on the planet will be unaware of Paris Hilton’s transfer from the pokie to the ankle bracelet, but it is a safe bet that within weeks or even months, relatively few Americans will know the big news going down now in Iraq.”
Oh Howard, you ignorant slut!
Paris is in the news because you and your fellow MSM cohorts put her there!
And in 1998 we were busy watching a baseball “home run race” instead of caring about what Clinton was doing in DC and Iraq.
This is nothing new.

Ah, the simple life!
In America if you have money you can behave anyway you please and the sheeple will still shake your hand ohh and ahhh.
That is until you have the stink of prison.
Read further down, I like what he has to say about the Iowa straw poll.
This week, the Iraqi parliament 'passed a binding resolution that will guarantee lawmakers an opportunity to block the extension of the U.N. mandate under which coalition troops now remain in Iraq when it comes up for renewal in December.' But if you didn't read that in an exclusive alternet.org story by Raed Jarrar and Joshua Holland, or if you didn't get an email from a friend (as I did) saying, Didja see this?, you might not know that a majority of Iraqi lawmakers has now fashioned a two-by-four to thump President Bush on the head and end our occupation. But no doubt you would know about the girl locked in a tiny room in Connecticut."
The Iraq vote does kinda sorta seem like news, doesn't it?
"What we have here is a fail-ure to communicate!"
The Captain is gonna have to put her back in "the box"...
