All The World Is Mad

What is wrong with humans? 

Are you so selfish that you can't let a 19 year-old girl finish an acceptance speech?  She wins her first VMA award, and you have to rush up to the stage, take the mic out of here hand, and proclaim that another artist deserves the award because she had "one of the greatest videos of all time!" What is your problem?  First, that was a fan-voted award so apparently more people want her to win than the other lady.  Secondly, let her have a moment.  You're so envious of the attention she got that you had to take it from her to put yourself in the spotlight? Controversy does sell I suppose.

Are you really that concerned for the bill or was this another attention seeking effort? It wouldn't be the first time that you have said something stupid and got in trouble.  And now, you had to shout "you lie!" at the head of state while he was addressing congress.  Nice going, you got yourself formally rebuked.  A rebuke does nothing other than smear your reputation but in DC, what else do you really have? Good luck.

What does this say about the rest of us though?  There are earthquakes that kill 200 in Italy, plane crashes in the indian ocean, brazil, and the hudson river that kill over 375 people collectively, typhoons, and avalanches.  We have wars going on, and North Korea looks like they are getting closer to nuclear weapons everyday.  But instead of reporting these things,  The media, and even us regular people, can only talk about Kayne West and Joe Wilson.
