Madonna's Mendacity

Nobody’s Opinion; Once again, Madonna has put herself in the middle of all the newspapers, cable networks, and internet sites.

You can’t tell me this lady is not a marketing genius.

Tonight I was watching Bill Gates and Warren Buffet on a PBS program answering college student’s questions. Someone asked, “What advise would you give as the most important secret to success?” Bill Gates kept pretty quiet on that, being smart.

But Warren said, “Invest in yourself.”

Well, if any woman on the earth has mastered this theory to immeasurable odds, its Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone…or is it Ester?

Madonna, even by her own admission, is a singer of the same caliber that you could find in any local bar in the country. Her dancing did not even measure up to Paula Abdul’s, or even some of the talent you might see on “Dancing with the Stars.”

But she took what mediocrity she had, and became the most famous recording artist and entertainer of her time, with sheer determination and hard work.

It also helped that she was absolutely in love with her own image. Actually, I think she should just get a job in Las Vegas like Elton and Celine, but Madonna has not faced her own mortality---not yet.

I took a look at her website. The truly amazing thing about Madonna is her unabashed narcissism. The pictures are incredible, touched up to the max, but who cares? She delivers the glamour to you, and demands to be adored. She must pose for hours to get the perfect shots, and even though there are more gorgeous bodies, she uses the camera to perfection.

So, the question is: Does that give her the right to be able to break laws, and use her money and fame and just go shopping for a child? Should she have rights that no other human being on earth has just because she is “Madonna?”

Will a great white shark attack if you offer it your leg?

Okay, it’s not like we are not getting use to the idea that the rich always get special privileges. We have watched while the rich commit crimes and get off with great lawyers. They can buy most anything including island, or even countries as we have seen with George Soros.

What baffles this nobody is why in the world is Madonna feeling the need to adopt a black child? And maybe even a black little sister for him so he doesn’t feel like the odd man out in the family of white?

How wonderful of her to even consider this…something tells me it wasn’t her idea.

Actually, when she saw a little girl child from the same village as the boy she adopted, she said; “I saw this child from the village with questioning dark eyes and the saddest smile. I thought ‘She looks just like me.’ I told Guy, “We must give this child a home too.”

Right, now there’s a reason to adopt a child, because it looks like you. When you’re rich you can buy both pairs of shoes.

So this nobody wants to know---does Madonna look in the mirror and see a black little girl with a sad smile? And why are you sad Madonna? Getting old? Marriage not working out? Lonely?

Or is it that you are showing the top elites that you too can be as wonderful as Angelina Jolie. Hey, she’s got Brad Pitt.

Africa is on the “I may be rich, but watch, I’m helping the starving black people in Africa” list of things we must do for the rich and famous.

What do they do, all get together and say, “Hey, some of us should adopt some kids from these poor countries…it would help our image.”

I’m beginning to wonder if all these white rich people adopting African babies are trying to prove to “somebody” that they are NOT racist…when they are.

And instead of being a bit stuffy about how Madonna can just walk into a country, bend all its laws, and break the adoptions laws of England, much to the outcry of parents waiting for babies all over the world--my question is, why in the world didn’t she just have another baby by her husband? Why shop for a pretty face by e-mail?

Something tells me, Madonna wanted that pretty face. Maybe none of the other kids are showing any musical talent.

And maybe, Madonna will finally have made a big mistake this time. Someday, the real dad and all his extended family will be wanting vacations to her private villas, and the grown up baby David might end up loving his real dad over Madonna, no matter how much of a privileged life she gives him. Sometimes, blood is thicker than stardust.

And somehow, we will once again be seeing this bit of controversy, probably downloaded to our cell phones, so we can all feel very sorry for her, and go buy her album of old songs. Hey, it worked for Linda Ronstad, and she actually did a good job.


Nobody’s Perfect; it was reported that Madonna is an obsessive list keeper.
Four hours after David was delivered to her home, Madonna went to the gym and worked out. This is one of the reasons she is so rich. Most other mothers would have to be torn away.

Nobody Knows; Sometimes I wonder if Madonna has this marketing stuff down so well that she thinks…”Okay, I started out with the virgin song, acting like a whore, that got attention-- then I did a video, “Like a Prayer” and attacked the church and the pope disbarred me, that got me millions; I made a film called “Erotica” that they banned, which made me millions; I posed for that nude book which was banned, which made me millions, the sex thing got old, so I became a wife, put S&M on stage, that made millions. My last tour was sold out…now, Angelina just adopted a child, she is making millions, I could use a black child, hey, I’ll even go farther and dance in the Village, give a few million…

Nobody Cares; I was fired once from a hotel job for singing “Like a Virgin.” It had been number one on the charts for several weeks, and some old couple trying to eat in the restaurant, evidently thought it was not something they wanted to hear in the middle of their meat loaf.

The worst thing about Madonna is; despite her great drive and genius at marketing herself, she has ruin whole generations of woman by putting out the message of sex, sex, and more sex.

I’ve never heard one feminist ever say a bad word about her.

Nobody Wins; George Soros and Madonna both endorse Wesley Clark as the perfect man to run for President.

Let us pray.
