The important news


AP is all over a story that a judge has issued a temporary restraining order requiring actor Charlie Sheen to stay away from his estranged wife.

It’s important news – the private affairs of celebrities are always important.But it’s a good thing that Sheen’s recent charges about 911 were pretty much ignored by AP and the rest of the corporate media.

I mean, after all, how important could it be if the official story on 911 turns out to be a silly conspiracy theory? You know the theory, the one that says 19 amateurs with box cutters took over four commercial airliners, flew three of them into buildings and took down three skyscrapers, all on the orders of some clown in a cave in Afghanistan.

Even if it isn’t true, what’s the difference, eh? Just because we’re fighting a couple of wars and gave up the Bill of Rights to avenge 911 is no reason to worry about a few discrepancies in Big Brother’s scenario.

Good citizens always believe what the government tells them.

If they know what’s good for them.
