“What does KING OBAMA think of MJ’s passing”?
...that idiot won’t comment on North Korea, the Chicoms, Russia or anything else that could blow us to smithereens! He WILL however lament about the unfairness brough to MJ as a result of his being black! It’ll be the same for OJ when he kicks!
“Okay, so Michael Jackson died. Now, can we move on”?
...I couldn’t agree more! My secretary had all the details of this BS this morning, and I knew nothing of it until 10am(EST)!! My response to her was, “I think that the country going to hell in a handbasket is a tad more important to me right now”!
“Drug addicted sex pervert dead at 50.” Any other news about this is a waste of time.
Why? Well, he did save humanity and turn aside that asteroid that was headed for earth. All by himself, too.
Didn’t he?
I like this, found on another FR thread:
“The family has announced that since Michael was already 90 percent plastic, they will be melting him into Legos so little boys can play with him for a change.”
Not sure which thread or which poster.
May they find comfort in a renewed faith.

He didn’t need tough love so much as he need real love at the key developmental stages of his life. That is love not for his talent, his fame, his money, what he could do for other people, etc. but for his intrinsic worth — the kind of love that in its purest form comes from Christ, not flawed human beings. Boteach is on to something hear about spiritual lessons of Jacko’s tragic life. I see him as a window into the soul of many abused, exploited and therefore damaged people. He had the means/enablers to physically manifest the warped self-image that many keep inside.
I think so.
But this article truly made me cry. I wasn't a big Jackson fan, although I appreciated his talent and understood his effect on music and pop culture.
But his story is really the story of America. Opportunity to all, success, fame, extraordinary wealth, betrayal, idol worship, NAIVITE and...and ultimately, an untimely death...when Shmuley says at the end he prays for America, I totally understand what he means.
Prayers for the family. I've been reading reports about foul play.
Being in the same place, I hope Tiller somehow manages to give Michael an abortion.
Yours and Shmuleys reaction is a good one and very understandable but Shmuley does ask, “Was there no one to save him from himself? Was there no one to intervene?”.
As he says that reaction required real love but what would that love have looked like? I say it wouldn’t have looked soft or comforting. Calling him a pervert wouldn’t have been easy to say but maybe that’s what it would have taken to let him see he couldn’t have his behaviors and real approval too.
