A lot of other blogs have been dogging the less than fully well rounded Kellie Pickler over her rather ditzy-blonde appearance on the Foxworthy show "Are YOU Smarter than a 5th Grader!"

UNFAIR... people do we not remember what this young woman faced? Are we that unmoved by the plight of a tortured childhood? Was Miss Teen South Carolina not available for this show?

The thing about Pickle is that you can beat her with facts and figures - but her survival has been found in her spirit, generous heart, and her refusal to both be more than what she is able, or less than what she is capable... And the world might be a better place if the rest of us learned that lesson too!

That's why I don't like country music
Kind of makes the term "country bumpkin" seem like an understatement.

Actually listening to her interact with Foxworthy makes it fairly obvious she isn't a complete idiot which means that she's basically lived an extremely sheltered or willingly oblivious life. Nobody knows this more than the man who had a show called "You must be a Redneck if ...". He must live for the times he gets these people on his show, though at some point you'd think he'd start feeling bad for them and let them off easy.

ouch
I have to admit it was uncomfortable for me to watch Ms. Pickler's performance! I agree with David that she has led a sheltered or willingly oblivious life (and she is far from alone if that is the case).

We should not be too hard on her though, as McCullough says, her heart is in the right place. Upon reflection, is she any more ignorant than those who believe they are more caring and generous because they are willing to give away someone else's money? Or is she any more ignorant than someone who preaches the dangers of global warming when he has a house with a "carbon footprint" the size of Greenland?

No wonder people hate us
She has more money than a small country and dumber than all them

Ms. Pickler
I don't know where her heart is but I do feel sorry for any young woman who is sadly ignorant enough to fall for the "I need implants to be a successful person" mentality.

Consider this
She is not depending on us to support her because she makes enough money on her talent. Also, how do we know how the people of other countries would stack up to her? How about those girls in Muslim countries who have been denied an education? Sure she should not have done so dismally, but keep in mind, SC is not at the top of the heap educationally speaking...
