America's focus misplaced

3/24/05 Random Thought of the Day
Why is America's focus so easily put on the wrong thing. Right now, Congress and the White House are knee deep in talk about Terry Schiavo and steroids in sports. People are dying EVERYDAY in Iraq over some stuff that doesn't even concern us. The woman who accused Pres. Bush of a sexual crime was found strangled to death in her home. (Some of you probably didn't even hear about the accusation, itself). That's just the point. America's turning into a blatant resthaven for selective censorship and an even bigger propoganda machine. We, especially as young Americans, have to start thinking for ourselves, and reading between the lines of all this crap that the popular media feeds us.

Often times, we get caught up in the lives of celebrities. Certain ones we watch fall and enjoy every step of the way down with them. But I want to give kudos to Whitney Houston for checking herself back into rehab. Whatever it takes. Whitney is blessed with something that not many others can lay claim to. No voice class can give you what she has. Her voice was a gift from Heaven. Apparently, Alicia Keyes has written a duet specifically for Whitney & herself that's supposed to be on Alicia's next album. Here's hoping all goes well this time. Whatever it takes.
