Hannah Montana and the Mooning of America

With the Iraq War dragging on forever, the economy in the tank, record high oil company profits—how do people have the energy to get outraged over an artsy fartsy Vanity Fair portrait of the bare back of a popular tween, or a prom invitation scrawled on the bare butts of some high school lacrosse players?

The Hannah Montana pics are a little too waifish heroin chic for me, but despite what all fathers would like, little girls do grow up, even pop tarts who are such a part of our culture they have influenced state laws.

The life expectancy of Hannah Montana is less than two years. She will be as relevant to the next crop of eleven year old girls as Madonna, and her current fans will have moved on to some new music genre, most likely one their parents don't understand nor approve of.

This is perhaps the most fickle, attention deficit society in the history of the planet. If a tweenie pop tart wants life after sixteen, she best make some career moves and take the risk that some of the Christian groups will call for Disney to give her a spanking—even if the poor girl was tricked into it by a wicked lesbian Jewish photographer.

Besides, in many ways, the tween factory known as Disney is much more offensive than the Vanity Fair non-nude shot.

Disney is a Pop Tween Factory which manufactures squeaky clean adolescent starlets and pretends there is nothing sexual about their virginal grinding.

News Flash Moms: Hannah Montana and Disney are selling sex to little girls with developing minds and budding breasts.

So you might want to reconsider your well laid plans to sit around the kitchen table and thoroughly vetting this with your daughter. It's as worthless as the birds and the bees talk—which embarrasses everyone and imparts no new knowledge.

Miley Cyrus's emo shocker has upset the nation, but it is tame compared to the prom invitation Kristoff Wennersten delivered to Carolyn Campbell at Huron High School in Ann Arbor.

Kris recruited his fellow lacrosse players. They displayed the question, "Will You Go To The Prom With Me? Yes or No?" on their posteriors while mooning senior Carolyn at a game.

Miss Campbell accepted the invitation by tapping the “Yes” rump, and reportedly thought it was “cute” and was not upset in any way.

The same could not be said of the high school administrators. It was felt the prank was "disrespectful of the girls" in the school. I wonder if girls had done this, it would have been disrespectful of the boys?

Anyway, the players were suspended.

Good grief.

No one was offended. It's the school administrators who should have been suspended for having no sense of humor.

Life is too short to have a coronary over bare backs or bare butts.

By the way, in case you didn't know, Miley Cyrus isn't going to her prom.

The reason--no date.

No guys mooning over Hannah Montana??????
