Commentary by Brent Kellogg

September 24, 2009

In my more subdued moments of delighting in the adulterous whinings of greasy Genoa City residents, I often wonder if there is some limit that will eventually snap and wipe them out as a species such as the California brown bear after one too many crazy relatives, addictions, adulterous affairs, teen boy fetishes, babies born and given to other women while the mothers were passed out and/or told by their corrupt doctors that the babies were DOA.

Of course I'm thinking about crazy Ashley Newman getting the baby born to Sharon Collins, and the slut Sharon too stupid to know that Ashley never gave birth, and in fact nobody actually saw Ashley in an elevator with Jack Abbott cutting the wee one from her vagina with a pocket knife. I am thinking too of what a bitch Ashley is. Not that I haven't always thought that, there's never been a time anyone could feel an iota of empathy toward this sad excuse for a woman which may explain why so many have thought she's really a man.

The ability to turn love off and on at the flip of a switch in her twisted head, Ashley may out do herself when she refuses to approve of giving her near death husband a new, albeit black, heart. You must have heard the story. Colleen Carlton soon to be dead, Victor Newman will get first crack at her heart. An election will be held with all members of the Abbott family, to which Colleen was doomed to be a part of, electing not to give Victor the heart. Then, in some fluke of wanting to do the right thing, Traci Abbott Connelly will give Victor's young daughter, Abby Carlton Newman, the power of life and death.

Now please, no snickers from the peanut gallery about how no matter their wealth, the rich don't get to make decisions like this. A human heart is not something to be given away like a recipe for Grandma's cheese cake. There are laws governing this sort of thing and that's assuming the law applies in Genoa City, which it doesn't as we've seen time and again most recently with Gloria and Jeff Bardwell getting away with two attempts at blackmail. And now Gloria is bawling how she can't pay the rent and must - gasp - use pay phones of which her crazy, criminal son is simply appalled.

Another story entirely, what's most appalling is that these pagans have the gall to ask God for help. Tragedy of the week arrives, there they are praying. Are they ever seen thanking God when he comes through? No. Thank God, He didn't grant Traci's wish that Colleen live. I wouldn't have either. Not after the scene Traci made at the God Have Mercy Medical Center. Her spewing that if only Colleen gets to live they'll all be "family" again.
