The State of the Union got me thinking about gossip and politics. Here are my thoughts.
Most people from Judeo-Christian backgrounds would probably profess to hating gossip. Even the gossips would admit that it's a vice needing repentance.
But what about Historians? Do they need to repent of their wicked ways? After all, isn't history just plain-ol' gossip about dead people?
And here's a similar thought I heard attributed to Jay Leno that I think bears repeating: Isn't Politics really just Show Business for ugly people?
Any thoughts?

OK, I was reading the Bible this morning and realized that it's full of poeple's dirty laundry. So obviously, I'm oversimplifying the definistion of gossip, leaving out the component of intent.
