Scandal is Significant
By: Rodolfo Roman

It is sad to say, but it is amazing and explainable how the United States media can give such in depth coverage for the death of --playboy model and reality show star--Anna Nicole Smith.
It seems like the death of one of our soldiers fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan is less important than that of Smith, who was involved in a court battle over Texas oil tycoon J. Howard Marshal II before her departure from earth.
There are millions of people who suffer from depression and take an ample amount of pills to calm their nerves. How flagrant can it be that this woman overdosed on her sleeping pills because she couldn’t take the pressure from us and her immediate family. But, here is the question: Why does the media give her death so much coverage? Why, because there’s millions of dollars left and a motherless child, Dannielynn. Poor little girl. May God take her out of this unnecessary chaos.
It’s sad that an insignificant situation like Smith’s death is even taken into consideration. See, when she was alive everyone in the business looked at her as an easy target to ridicule. Now, everyone seems to care. There are about three men and Smith’s mother who want custody of Dannielynn. I write about three men because that’s the number of men who are trying to claim custody. Apparently, Smith froze Marshal’s sperm, so that he could be the father; thus, who will then have the money? Sad.
By the way, did you know that the United States intelligence has said that Iran is supplying Shiite militias with some of the most lethal weapon in the war in Iraq . The bombs have killed more than 150 American soldiers.
Oh, sorry this is not important. Oh yea, back to Smith.
So now the Tribune of Nassau newspaper published a picture today that shows Shane Gibson, Bahamian immigration minister, yea mahn!, lying in bed with Smith. The picture shows them acting flirtatious with each other.
God bless her soul, but how immoral and unladylike was this woman? These men who claim to have had a relationship with her and say they are the father of the child are just making her reputation worse. The men and woman claiming money, I mean custody, are Smith’s lawyer/companion, Howard K. Stern, former boyfriend and photographer, Larry Birkhead , Prince Frederic von Anhalt, husband of Zsa Zsa Gabor and Smith’s mom Vergie Arthur. Note to self: “I don’t know who he or she is but I’ve heard of the name, Zsa Zsa Gabor. Not part of my generation.”
Either way, back to the point I am trying to make, which is this can easily be an episode from Jerry Springer just that these trailer park people have money and have been bombarded by cameras mostly their entire life. Why is it that Americans are driven by plain and simple “trash”? This country needs to change its standard and start reading the world section instead of the entertainment because face it, no matter how much you try to resolve the case, Smith died and whoever claims the child won’t give you any money. So, save your saliva and invest it in an educational and worth having conversation.

R.I.P.

Anna Nicole Smith

I think when they say rest in peace, well; it should be taken into consideration.
