Ok I've had enough of the Rush Limbaugh can't own an NFL team because of inappropriate comments he made a few years ago for which he has apologized. Is it really about those comments? Come on. The public is not a bunch of idiots who can't see this hypocrisy. So Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez can be part owners of the Dolphins even though Marc married Jennifer four days after his divorce, Jennifer co-habitated with Ben Affleck before her third marriage to Anthony. The Williams sisters are also part owners, never mind that Serena Williams lost her match at the US Open after threatening the line referee while liberally using the F word to berate her. And then there is Fergie who is having no problem with her bid to join the star studded cast of owners. Oh yes, it doesn't seem to matter that she too uses the F word liberally and dresses like a porn star. Don't get me wrong both Fergie and Serena are incredible talents at what they do, but so is Rush Limbaugh. Whether you agree with his politics or not, he is just as "qualified" as these other owners. Apparently the media targets the people they like and gives them a pass. Those who politics don't align with theirs are bait for their shark attacks. The hypocrisy is sickening.
So much of the advice in PRESS PAUSE BEFORE YOU EAT is hitting home that I will be recording weekly podcasts to help you stay encouraged and apply the PRESS PAUSE principle to your eating habits. Yes, it is possible to develop a positive relationship with food--one in which food is not the enemy, is not something that controls you and doesn't create guilt. Check my website for when these podcasts will begin. Send them to a friend. Let's all work on enjoying food, maintaining a healthy weight and getting on with our lives.
If I hear one more celebrity excusing the behavior of Roman Polansky, I'm going to personal hold group therapy sessions with Hollywood. Roman Polansky, at the age of 44--note he was not 20 or a confused teenager but a 44 years old man--drugged a 13 year old child with Quaaludes, gave her champagne and then raped her. This involves the illegal use of drugs and alcohol to a minor which no one is talking about and the rape of a young girl. The fact that Sharon Tate's sister (the sister of Roman's wife who was murdered by Manson's crazed group) is saying that the sex was consensual is unconscionable. She should be scorned off the TV set of any thinking television host. Shame on them for allowing this woman to make such harmful statements with no consequences. Once again, Hollywood shows how out of touch it is with the moral fabric of America. Had this been a 40 year old low income African American male who did this to a 13 year old, he would be in jail with no public sympathy. But Hollywood feels they rewrite the rules because they are so "special".
