Whatever. I just dont like seeing the watch me trash my family show. They could be such a force for the greater good - as a united front, rather than being eager and willing poster children for family dysfunction.
And they started out as the new Fab Four. So it wasnt like they werent embraced all around, from the start. I would no more go on national TV with Oprah and the rest of it and stab my brother in the back knowing he had a huge job ahead for family and country and wouldnt go public to defend himself while I wave all my familys dirty laundry in everybodys faces than Id vote Republican.
