46. The cult worship is disturbing. More disturbing than any joke...

Which seem to me, the few that I've seen, aimed at the people who have projected their own personal life beefs and disappointments at this simple country woman. Someone actually said, "it's been a big week for 'us.'" Good LORD!!! She's not the Jeanne D'Arc of the women's movement. Nor is she some divine Celtic goddess, sent to avenge the middle-aged plain people by shining her beacon of all that is goodness and light. And the comments about pretty people are just repulsive.

There are millions of people who don't look like Barbie, and yet have managed to build successful happy lives. If you think everyone who isn't the perfect physical specimen is treated as a joke, then you are highly mistaken. Maybe too addicted to scripted reality shows.


They haven't even gotten to the semi-finals yet. Oh brother!
