"Stop, Stop!"

Never mind what's happening in Iraq or Iran or North Korea.

Who cares about what Nancy Pelosi and the Dems plan to do to the country?

Newlyweds Mr. and Mrs. Tom Cruise are leaving for their honeymoon, after a fairy tale wedding that cost somewhere in the seven figure range.

BRACCIANO, Italy -- Officially, they got married in Los Angeles, but the spectacle of the wedding between Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes was here, in a 15th-century castle that evoked fairy tales and lit up with red, white and green fireworks for a cheering, celebrity-laden crowd.

There were fireworks inside, too, a "never-ending kiss" between the betrothed after they exchanged vows Saturday. The kiss lasted so long it caused guests to shout "stop, stop!" said Giorgio Armani, who attended the wedding and designed the outfits of the bride, the groom and their baby, Suri.

The couple flew out of Rome Sunday for a honeymoon in the Maldives, said Ciampino airport spokesman Adriano Franceschetti. The rest of the wedding party was due to fly to Los Angeles later in the day.

I agree with the guests shouting "stop, stop!"

I say "stop, stop!" for different reasons of course.

There is something wrong when a celebrity wedding becomes the biggest story in the world.

It's moments like this that I wonder about people and their priorities.

The same celebrities that whine about global warming burned a lot of jet fuel flying to Italy.

The celebrities that push the "little people" to contribute their hard-earned dollars to support pet causes have no problem squandering tons of money that could have been used for much, MUCH more noble purposes.

This Cruise/Holmes wedding hysteria is bizarre.

So much of the Hollywood culture is deviant.

The media are weird.
