I'm curious as to the purpose of the snarky May 4 Arts & Living section column ("Why the dis, Jenna?") by Celia Rivenbark about Jenna Bush's wedding in Crawford, Texas.

Leaving aside the fact that Rivenbark sounds like yet another citizen who believes the government owes her everything, including, according to her own screed, "a nostalgia fix" to "cheer her up," she may have been raised in the South, but she surely never learned the finer points of Southern hospitality or etiquette, the first of which is that it is considered totally bad form to earn a living mocking other people, a lesson obviously wasted on her.

If her column is any indication of what the "coverage" of a White House wedding would have been like, Jenna Bush made a wise decision.

Rivenbark should have stopped when she wrote, "It's none of my business..."
