Why would I want to learn from Madonna's mistakes? Her self-promoting rise to the soapbox/pulpit is just as bad as the Sunday morning televangelists spewing forth their brand of rhetoric.

I just get irritated when the filthy rich, who make their living "entertaining" the masses by whatever means necessary and commanding ridiculous compensation for a modicum of work, start to preach family values and poverty.

If Madonna were to give just a significant amount to charity, (I'm not asking for it all) or maybe donate her time to important issues instead of hiding out in London behind her 50 bajillion dollar wrought iron gate with motion sensors, maybe I could start to see a tithe of credability here. It's all well good to preach about the "fellowship of man" and "loving thy neighbor" it's quite different to actually live the life.

So, she's writing children's books. Good for her. I'm sure they will sell well, because the same folks she's slamming about their "American Values" are the same folks lining up to buy her vapid little book.

Apparently Madonna and I live in two distinctively different Americas'
