... all that far from that. I've had just about enough of the Al Gores and the Barack Obamas and the John Edwards and the Bonos and the Stings and the dancing queens of all descriptions. The courageous, real-world, modest, non-intellectualizing, non-frivolous, non-dancing, non self-absorbed people like Kate's friend Kim, and officer Kimberly Munley, are the fundament.

Jon Gosselin is...
