...with Paris Hilton being the featured exhibitionist and the media playing the role of the odd little guy in the s/m gear.
Okay, maybe it's a plain old freak show and no one can look away.
HH however does write a very nice article that tries to underneath the shallowness of the "victim" (us and her) and make sense of a post-post-modern world of weird celeb BS.
My theory however is she's a plant by the Bush admin to divert eyes from the real world mess of Iraq, GOP corruption and health care. Functionally that's what Ms. Hilton is doing...and we're biting, hook, line and sinker.
