    Kate Middleton's Topless Photos Pathetic Way To Sell Papers

    The topless photos of Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge and wife of Prince William, arrived just when Americans needed a break from post-convention politics.

    We’re 50 days away from the November election and a respite from Mitt Romney and Barack Obama seemed far from happening. But the royal family always has a way of distracting from real life and what’s really important in the world. That’s especially true if nudity is involved.
