It's a huge deal in the media. She hasn't even broken any records. The fact that it's 2005, they're white and churning out kids is what is making news, and it's dumb news.
I take issue with that 'jealousy' remark. I sure as hell don't want anything they have. But, I do think people are incredibly dumb for giving free things to a family made its size by choice and can well afford to maintain it without handouts, specially in light of the recent disasters to hit our country. Does it affect me personally? Hell, no, but neither do most of the things we bitch about both in forums and in real life.
A woman in NJ who has adopted and fostered 19 kids just lost her home to fire....anyone see her on the Today show or 10 pages of Google? no....
