Meet the Press-- Ashleyverse Style, 03/07/10 Edition

Hello! I've got some political, Oscar-related, and Ashleyverse news and views to share with everyone today.

First off, in political news, elections were held in Iraq amid sectarian violence, which has been caused largely by U.S. presence in the country since 2003. Know what? It's been seven years since we invaded the once-sovereign nation of Iraq, and we've done much more harm than good. Needless to say, it's time to leave Vietraq for good. (Aside: Vice President Biden is leading a push to revive Middle East peace talks, which makes me feel a little bit better about everything.)

Secondly, in Oscar-related news, yes, tonight is Oscar night once again. Uber-talented Meryl Streep's hilarious It's Complicated co-stars Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin are hosting. Best actress nominee Sandra Bullock "won" a Razzie award for her performance in The Blind Side-- a role she actually won a Golden Globe for. Whatever! Anyway, for best picture, I predict Precious will win. It's perhaps the most-buzzed-about film of the year, director Lee Daniels is the man, and the cast, including star Gabourey Sidibe, Mo'Nique, Mariah Carey, and Lenny Kravitz (IMHO, one of the most beautiful men on the planet), is absolutely stellar. We shall see if this prediction is correct!

Finally, in Ashleyverse news, some toxic personalities in the form of "dreamkillers" have invaded my sphere. Once again, whatever! Still, enough with all the negativity, people! Okay, I just need to think positive thoughts, perform positive actions, and positive things will more than likely happen.

And, with those happy notions, I conclude this "broadcast." Stay tuned for the next edition of Meet the Press-- Ashleyverse Style.
