Jon & Kate go on hiatus: Good. It's about time these two quit contaminating the brains of America, let alone their own children.
The show won't be over, however, as Kate will undoubtedly do anything she can to keep herself in the headlines until the show picks up again in the fall. Of course, there is a chance that the Discovery Channel subsidiary, TLC, will decide to can the show altogether in an attempt to salvage some credibility.
Yeah, sure they will, VFC. Money talks (and ratings), even louder than calls for decency.
The Carolina Governor: No surprises here. A suspicious disappearing act like that can only mean one thing- affair.
What strikes me as odd is how these affairs by our politicians turn into such an ordeal. This stuff barely garners headlines anywhere else in the world.
Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi has been hanging with girls old (or young) enough to be his great grandchildren for decades and it's only now becoming an issue.
I'm sure the term-limited Governor felt he had nothing to lose by going for it with his secret woman, only to find out that he did- a family.

News & Views; Obama, The Governor and More....
ABC is looking to become America's leader of State-run TV.
It's one thing to work a deal with the Obama Administration to become the exclusive host network of Obama's health care plan, but to discriminate against certain advertisers that would offer an opposing view is anti free press.
If companies had any balls they'd pull all advertising money from ABC to make a point. It's not a disagreement with the health care plan, per say, but with ABC's pathetic attempt to become a platform for State-run media.
I thought NBC had that covered until now.
There's something fishy about the Governor of South Carolina disappearing without giving notice to anyone about where he was going.
There's nothing wrong with getting away to 'clear your head', but it's irresponsible to leave a significant post, such as Governor, without notice.
Don't be surprised if the public soon hears about a significant 'other' that joined him on his dalliances. That is the only thing that could explain the secrecy of his vacation.
President Obama was surprisingly testy during yesterday's press conference. For someone who stops at nothing to place criticism and blame on the previous administration, he seems to have soft skin when it comes to any criticism of himself or his own administration.
It's going to be an awfully long four years for this President if he doesn't get some thicker skin.
The honeymoon won't last forever and it's only a matter of time before the press corps gets serious with him; even the State-run media outlets such as ABC and NBC will turn on a dime in order to boost their own ratings at the expense of the President.
On that note, I applaud the President for finally speaking strongly about the Iranian situation.
However, it's still being made to be about 'him.' The American people just want their leader to tell them where America stands on this issue, not how Mr. Obama 'feels' about it.
They can be two entirely different things altogether.
Also, these comments, at some point, need to come from the heart. While the President was addressing the issues, he failed to look at the camera once and read from a 'script' that was comparable to the reading of a campaign speech.
Where is the passion from the campaign trail?
The history of the world is transforming before our very eyes and the tests are coming from many directions; now is not the time to lose the passion.

Who Does Barbara Boxer Think She Is? She's a Disrespectful Nobody in VFC's House
In the same way that Barbara Boxer feels that she has earned the right to be called "Senator" instead of "Ma'am", I think a General in our Armed Forces has earned the right to not be spoken to in such a condescending matter by an elected official.
Boxer is another prime example of how pompous some of our elected officials really are and it's no surprise that a bunch of politicians with egos as large as hers can single-handedly destroy the financial groundwork of this country but get little else done.
If ever there was a prime example for term limits, Boxer is it.
Boxer may have worked her butt off for the right to be called "Senator", but something tells me that the General, in his day, has endured, and seen, a lot more than the self-admiring Senator.
How the people of California keep voting these clowns into office is beyond me.
