I registered just to post this comment.

How is it that a website like CBS News can run a headline that is so blatantly grammatically incorrect?

Earache4: I despise Sarah Palin''s politics and I don''t like her personally, either. But I despise even more what you have said about her grandson and the descriptive term you used to do it. I have reported you for abuse and asked cbsnews to hold you accountable by removing you from their site. I pray they do so, as accountability needs to become part of our national fabric again, and we might as well start with you!

Cas2dy, Chelsea Clinton and Amy Carter received quite a lot of attention, because they were children in the White House. On Amy Carter''s first day of school, photographers were everywhere. The Clintons were much criticized for sending Chelsea to Sidwell Friends instead of a public school. By the way, the media were obsessed with the Kennedy children when their father was President. I don''t know how old you are, but perhaps you''re simply not old enough to remember these events.

Stop putting these average children on a pedistal. They''''re no better than Joe The Plumber''''s kids.

These girls have no clue who you people are and never will! Yet you sit on the bottom of a random news article complaining about them and their coverage.

You think they are better than your children?

Obviously they must be better than all of you peoples kids. You don''t have anyone complaining at the bottom of any news articles about your kids or Xlib''s kids or Credibility2''s kids.

As an African American mom, I am not very happy with the big deal they are making of these girl''s attending this elite school. They should be treated with the same courtesy as other president''s children ahve been treated with. After all, if he were not the firts African American president, his daughter''s attending such a school would not have been such news fodder. So, in effect, they are on display because of their race by virtue of their father''s arce. Let the girls grow up amongst their own the same way that chelsea, Amy, the Bush twin''s, Caroline and John-John and so many other presidential children did. Without so much darned spotlight. Tt''s nice to see them here and there, but goodness, I''m starting to see Malia so much that her face is as familiar to me as my own 8 year old daughter''s is. (And they are all so cute, but even my child wears thin on me sometimes.)

Gee, what did they have for? breakfast?? What kind of backpacks do they have?
Golly, this is soooo exciting.
Hey, starlo, do you really think the school is "secret"?? Get real.BTW folks, I''m taking my cat to the vet today. Isn''t that interesting???

[credibility2]

This is more of the same Obama hype. It''s no big deal, really!

What is wrong with the media advertising these girls school showing pictures etc. All you see on television, on the morning programs, this should be kept private, never saw pictures of the school before, when Chelsea went to school, get real media there are nuts out there, and these girls are innocent to all this political mumbo-jumbo. You can announce it, but leave out the pictures.Not one stone will you leave unturned no matter what will you?
