I have tried relentlessly to ignore her, the Octo-Mom, Nadya Suleman. It is my opinion that she is a very sick woman psychologically, and that the world giving her all the attention she is looking for is exactly what she wants. I vowed that I would say what I wanted about government, politics, the state of the state and education, handily avoiding the topic of the moment.

Yet on the other hand, I have received a lot of email asking my opinion about this strange creature we all know and less-than-love, Nadya Suleman.

I don't like tearing people apart the way that I am going to anymore, and it is because with all the perceived bad in the world at the moment, we should all being seeing Ms. Suleman as this year's answer to Britney Spears of last year - whacko!

I do not feel sorry for this ...person. Many people have told me that I need to be a little less harsh about my feelings about the situation, but to each of them I have simply said that when the inspiration hits me, there is no telling what will spew from my brain. Anything toxic or foul tends to spew if kept in a tightly-lidded container, this would include language. I am not sure if I care to call it "softened", in regards to my way of being in terms of judging someone over their foolish choices - and make no mistake, she made the conscious choice to have these embryos implanted in her uterus. All eight were implanted, and all eight survived.

And let us not discuss the idea that any one of us has the perceived right to treat our parents as though they somehow owe for even being part of their lives. Suleman's behavior and attitude toward her parents is, I think, probably the most disgusting part of all of this. If anyone deserves to have her bills paid, it is her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Suleman. Their only mistake in all of this was not throwing her out - sans the first set of kids- squarely and neatly on her rear end. Nadya was told that the house could not support any more children, and instead of oing the right thing, Nadya does the complete opposite.

Yeah, I know, I just said something about sending yet more attention her way, but I think that I have been a good kid. I have said nothing about her, and this will probably be the one and only time that I say anything about her. I don't say anything about other, more disgusting people, who, in my opinion, used another very lovely set of human beings for her own gain, but that was a long time ago and well, I have seen what happens to a person for behaving as though the world revolves around them, seen what happens when you tell people that you are, without saying a word, above everyone else, and that, for instance, the person you have hurt knows well what it is that they have done.

Believe me, I don't, and I cannot understand to this day what it was that I did, but I am pretty sure I don't care anymore outside of the idea that this is a little bit of that left-over anger with people who just think that theirs is the oyster called the world. The problem with this thinking is that the rest of the world foots the bill for their sumptuous hunk of the American-Dream pie.

Yeah? Well, I think I speak for more than only myself when I say that women who are disgusting like our friend the Octo-Mom (and one or two to whom I am rleated to by marriage ONLY, thank God it AIN'T by blood because then I would have to admit to being their relative and well, I have enough relatives who piss me off, hurt me and my family, and well, relatives and family are two different concepts...more on that in a different post) when I say that the circus of your life is what is going to hurt you the most.

Not only did she get the attention she wanted, the fame she craved, and some of the money that goes with it, she garnered the same things for her parents.

What I would like to know is is Ms. Suleman has even bothered to thank her parents for the support they gave her for the first litter...yeah, I said it, now deal with it. Has this fat cow bothered to say thank you to her parents? What about paying them some sort of stipend for their years of support to her and then eventually her first herd of kids? This reminds me way too much of someone else, someone to whom I have referred to as Satan over the years, someone who, incidentally, is on the verge of paying her parents back without even realizing that she is paying a debt long owed to her mother who passed away recently.

It is never the money that it takes, but rather the time, caring and love coupled with the money that always pisses me off. She - the Octo-Cow, has decided that it is fine to be nasty to her parents, a set of people who should handily and immediately have their daughter tested for mental problems. Nadya Suleman has stuck herself in a position that I am not sure she was ready for. Her attitude reminds me of a book I read, am reading again now. Atlas Shrugged is one of those epic novels that are written when time called that there were not enough televisions around for us to bother with trying hard to do more than what was expected of us in terms of our supposed societal debts.

The book describes two sets of people - those who have the power and those who have the knowledge, and it is interesting to know that even back in the days of smoking being a glamorous tradition instead of a very bad habit, people who had money were the ones who were the most heralded, and those who wanted money were the ones who would surely pay for their sins of doing good for others. Ayn Rand captures the situation then and now very well.

It would depend on your own reasoning of having money versus wanting money, the way that you yourself feels about someone like Nadya. If my kid was so inclined to keep me separate from the lives of people who I valued more than they did, I would be so on the phone with not only the proper governmental authorities, but also the damned media. I have this thing about fairness - everyone should be treated fairly, and by this I do not mean that if one kid is given a popsicle, all the kids should have one, too. I mean that if you treat people like garbage -especially people who have given you something that they cannot ever have back, such as their time and their effort, their love and their caring- you should be treated the same way.

Call me old school, or perhaps Old Testament, but the fact remains that if you are so inclined to proverbially bite the hand that feeds you, you should have your own hands bitten by several dozen rabid hamsters. Have you ever been bitten by a hamster? They are cute and fuzzy but there is another side to these little varmints - they bite HARD.

It bites that Nadya seems without conscience when it comes to her mother. My mother has a way of describing things that happen to us. "You must have done something to deserve this. Everything you do to others will be done to you, you mark my words..." Ahhhh, the wisdom of my mother, glasses-wearing and pushing back up onto her nose modern-day seer of events to come.

All the nastiness, all the bitter, biting ironies that seem to visit our lives through means of other people always, always, always is paid back to us in one form or another. Take for instance, this person to whom I am related, who is not my aunt, Satan, who my parents were there for, not just once but several different times, and who are now consequently being treated like garbage by, have been getting treated like garbage by for years now. And I promise you that if I am asked who this is, I will be forced to tell you that once you know, I have to banish you from my life, at least on a 3/4 time basis, because in the eyes of many, there are some who are not privy to making up their own minds when it comes to something like choosing on one's own what it is that will piss them off, and no, forgiveness is not something that I care to discuss with anyone at this moment.

It seems though that screwing one's parents, and to a broader extent, those whom we have asked favor from, is en vogue at the moment. People have decided that it is fine to be evil, to use others for their own personal gain, and Nadya Suleman is not different. She seems to have wanted fame and fortune at almost any cost, and right now it looks as though the price for both of those is at the sky's limit for her - there is nothing that this attention seeking whore won't do in order to be in the media spotlight.

There are people in this world whom I know personally who willingly used, then purposely hurt, my own parents, and I see that the only thing that has spawned from that usage is the fact that you still think you did nothing wrong, and I still think that you are not more than another, albeit smaller and older version of Nadya Suleman. It is too bad that your attention deficit is nothing in comparison to Ms. Suleman, because if it were you might actually  be of some sort of significant value to lots of people. Thankfully, you are not, because what else would happen if you were is that your fat head would not fit through the door of many buildings and perhaps even your car.

People like those who are described as many would describe Ms. Suleman these days are those very people who feel like they are being treated unfairly when it comes to their own sins being revealed by the light of fame, no matter how big or small. We are shown their disgusting nature, and we are shown the ugliness that is their human soul, whatever there is of one, that is.

When the hell are we going to make Ms. Suleman pay for all the wasted time, wasted film footage, and wasted anger that we have been forced to deal with?

Probably as soon as she figures out that she looks NOTHING like Angelina Jolie, figures out that the rest of the world is no longer interested in paying for her mistake, and as soon as she figures out that her mother no longer wants anything to do with her.

Ummm, that will be as soon as that certain relative figures out that she is also not the Sun and the world truly does not revolve around her.

Can you say NEVER???
