Body Piercing

This post is going to be short because I don't want to spend too much time talking about frivolous things that have no place taking up the time and attention that we should be giving to other issues that are of far greater importance. However, since the news media has devoted time to it, I thought I would cover it as well - not for its newsworthiness, however. Anyways, if you haven't already heard, democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich's wife has. . . a tongue ring (dun dun dunnnnn). Honestly, who cares? Mrs. Kucinich seems to be taking some heat for not conforming to the social norms, but it seems that many politicians who do, don't seem to be doing very well at their jobs anyway. Click here to watch the interview with Mrs. Kucinich on MSNBC. I don't know much about Kucinich's wife, but it seems to me her answers to questions about not fitting the "traditional first lady" mold are quite articulate.
