Some sad news to report (well, not THAT sad)

I reported yesterday about some desperate housegirls that we call Jenna and Barbara. The New York Daily News reports that
Conservative Christians are flabbergasted about reports that raunchy rock-rapper Kid Rock will perform at a youth concert at the presidential inauguration.

"What in the world are these people thinking?" asked Donald Wildmon, chairman of the American Family Association in Tupelo, Miss. "This is the biggest slap in the face to the Christian conservatives."[...]

The almost-34-year-old Detroit bad boy is currently dating porn actress Jessie James, never goes anywhere without a pint of bourbon in his back pocket and rattles off X-rated lyrics that regularly earn his albums parental advisory warnings.

At the same time, he's a die-hard Republican and a big fan of Dubya. He put on a concert during last summer's Republican convention at the Manhattan nightclub Avalon - which the Bush twins attended.[...]

Inauguration planners seemed to be backpedaling yesterday about the event following a call from the Daily News. "Kid Rock has not been confirmed," insisted Tracey Schmitt, a spokeswoman from the Presidential Inaugural Committee. "But I can tell you Hilary Duff has been confirmed, as has JoJo."
Hilary is a Republican? Am I reading that correctly? Hilary Duff performs for Bush. Ashlee Simpson cannot sing worth a darn. Lindsay Lohan thinks she doesn't need a college education. Britney Spears is contemplating being a scientist. At least, there's still Vanessa Carlton and Michelle Branch. They can sing!

This is a crossover of politics and entertainment. I never knew I had it in me. Also, I will be in St. Louis tomorrow and will be driving back to campus Sunday so no new threads til Sunday night.
