Simon Cowell Truths

Some people say he is the man they love to hate. Some say you can only tell the truth, if you are Simon Cowell, and you are a judge on American Idol. Why is it we have so much trouble just "telling the truth". Is it because it isn't politically correct, whatever that means. Is it because it may be racist,and who knows what that means anymore it has been so marginalized. Is it because we as a Republic have been lied to so much by so many people that we have come to believe it just comes with the territory, being an American citizen that is.

What if you tell a "little white lie"? What does that mean? That it's OK? I heard someone say that telling the truth might hurt someones feelings. Lying to them MORE than hurts their feelings. Why can't we be honest with each other? No,the dress doesn't look good on you. That haircut does not become you. And yes the baby is ugly!The dress only needs to look good to the woman who wears it. The haircut only needs to feel good and become the person who has it. And yes, if you are the parent of the baby they always look good to us because they are a part of us. All of these are OK because we all have a right to our opinion. Tooooo many people live out there lives trying to live up to "others" expectations. What a waste!

You don't have to be brutal about it, just truthful. Now is that so hard?
