Who Really Cares?

With issues of great moment rocking the world, including the disintegration of Syria and the evident rekindling of revolution in Egypt, ABC Good Morning America used valuable airtime to shame Jennifer Lopez for singing "Happy Birthday" for the President of Turkmenistan. I doubt most Lopez fans even know where Turkmenistan is, nor are particularly troubled that Lopez feted a purported dictator. She was not putting a stage show on for Joseph Kony or belly dancing for Ayman al-Zawahiri and will still be embraced by her fan base.
