God Speaks to U.S. Troops

Standing in line at the checkout tonight, I saw the stupidest headline on a tabloid. Obviously some morons somewhere are buying this shit or I wouldn't have to be offended by them when I just wanna pay for my diet cream soda. I refuse to believe that everyone who buys a copy of the "Sun" or the "Weekly World" news is buying them because they think they are absurdly funny. That ought to be the only reason anyone purchases one but, sadly I think that there are those among us for whom these are "real" or "real good" news sources. Sometimes when I stand and look at the supposed reading material that is being purveyed at the checkout in my local groceries, I wonder if I wasn't born on the wrong planet entirely.
