Worst Week Ever

If people cared even half as much about Darfur as they do about whether or not Paris Hilton goes to jail for a DUI, this blog would have a lot different viewpoint.

1. Paris Hilton supporters coming out to show thier support, starting "Free Paris" petitions left and right. If there's anything Ms. Hilton needs, it's a night or two in prison.
2. Continuing debates about a proper immigration bill. 1.) There's bigger problems in the world. 2.) They've had how many years now?
3. Celebrity news (see above) has pushed out the issue with Alberto Gonzales.
4. Two words: Gas prices. It's the same story everywhere. Americans with big cars complain when gas prices first rise, then they get used to it, only to act absolutely shocked when they rise again.
5. One word: Darfur.
