#1 When I think of political and cultural sages, I think of Kathy Hilton

#2 "And another thing--he has the gall to put my Paris in the same category as that little tramp Britney! That's the worst insult. Say what you will about Paris, she has too much class to ever make babies with the likes of Kevin Federline!"

#3 Apparently, Granddad isn't impressed by Paris either. Now that is registered disapproval.

#4 The 79-year-old Hilton appears to be so fed up with how Paris has sullied the family name that he has also cut off his 10 other grandchildren too. He will instead put the family fortune into a charitable foundation.

I'll bet the other 10 grandchildren are a little pi$$ed about the sullying...

#5 And it is a completely frivolous way to choose the next president of the United States

Yes, those peasants actually choosing their own by voiting? Preposterous! They should do what we, their betters, tell them to do and be good little peons and go about their poor little mundane lives while we choose the leaders for them.

The gall of those little people to think they can make light of my daughter or beleive they are smart enough to choose a leader without our enlightened guidance.

#6 So she is annoyed that her daughter is considered a celebrity because that is the gist of the McCain ad. If she's inferring more she's the one projecting her opinions into the ad.

Having said that Brit and Paris were flashed so quickly one has to wonder why McCain's people bothered.

#7 I always had nothing but contempt for the wealthy who so despise their children they wish to impoverish them.

It shows that they are multiple failures: they did not raise their children well; they have no ability to persuade instead of coerce; they are mean bastards; they see no chance of redemption in their progeny; and they have no creativity in even wanting to try.

All they have left is disappointment, hate and a desire to hurt. Their memory will be scorned, their charity most likely wasted, and their history blemished.

Since such people leave behind far more enemies than friends, it is an opportunity for their enemies to exact revenge by extending friendship and support to their children, if for not other reason than to deny them their revenge.

#8 Does anyone recall Mommy Hilton registering her disapproval (in public) when daughter Paris was seen on tape on the internet having doggie style sex? Or when her daughter was hauled off to jail for multiple dui / dus and probation violations?

No. Neither do I.
