A prophetess among us

Of course, she's a little like Cassandra, the prophetess that no one believed.

But I was pleasantly surprised to see that Bob Sheffield gets something right that a lot of people still miss:  Oops!... Rolling Stone 07/13/27/06.  He writes:

Good old Britney - she never lelts us down.  She approaches career crises with all the care and precision she brings to birth control.  For those of us who adore her, it's yet another summer full of Britney magic.  So what if other pop stars are out there with new records?  Britney is beyond that, on a cosmic plane.  Problems?  We Britney fans do not use that word.  We call them "fun clusters."  So when she changes her baby's diaper on the floor at Victoria's Secret, she's just showing us the way.  When she goes on TV with a mouthful of gum, offering Matt Lauer her Wrigley-flavored wisdom about karma and Kabbalah and how being married to K-Fed is "awesome," she is lighting a path for us all to follow.  As Britney said to Matt Lauer, "I think everybody should be pro-love, you know?"  When it comes to Britney, aren't we all pro-love?  (my emphasis)

Poor Little Boo.  She's still so terribly misunderstood.  So it's great to see someone giving her some of the credit she deserves!

And we all should be pro-love, of course!  And who better than Britney to remind us of that?
