When I was in the 3rd grade, I vividly recall a blond female classmate (on which I had a crush) telling me that I looked like a monkey; that comment followed me for the rest of my life influencing and affecting my behavior and relationships with females and others as I altered my behavior to compensate.
Obviously, since I have been sensitive to my feelings, I have also tried to be sensitive to the feelings of others, especially when they find themselves in the public spot light.
A while back, our faithful media "went after" Chaz Bono which I thought was disgusting and today on the CBS Early Show, the host "drilled down" on Gov. Perry because he lost his train of thought during last night's debate. Wasn't it enough that Perry "slipped" during the debate and is it really necessary to rub his face in it as well?
Why do we do this to each other? And, it is not just with mistakes people make but when people go through grief as well - the media always wants to know the worst details or how it feels when parents lose a child.
I just think this is wrong and wish it would stop.
And, that's all I want to say about that.

Difference is that Chaz was basically being bullied, while Perry, who purports to be smart enough to become president, needs to answer to the public for his "slip" Maybe he shouldnt be so quick to get rid of the dept of education eh?
