Tuesday: Michael gave up his life to sharks, that is sad for this man. That is the lesson, make your own coffee yourself, choose the color of your socks yourself, wash yourself in the bathroom. Not the you and me kind of problems.
Tuesday: Michael was fine, but if i would have been the one helping him, I would have destroyed his ego to start with. He didn't need the excess, nobody needs.
Temo: Re:I would have destroyed his ego to start with.
gogul: And that can be more destructive if done. Such destruction has been likened to taking a sledge hammer to a brick wall surrounded by glass houses.
Tuesday: Demos are ment to protest ok. But it often enough makes not more than a silly 'I'm mighty'-smile on the faces of the transgressors. It's all about good mood, bad mood in this ugly circles. It doesn't need big demos to bring down the mood of a failed politician. It's all about mood. There is no violence needed, no stike, no masses needed IMO, I have my own ways.
Tuesday: Isnt it one and the same smile. It needs something in ones head to understand that those who lost an election (lets say the republicans with Obama) AND those who don't go to the ballot usually build the majority. Obama's no saint, he's under watch as everyone else too.
Chinas contribution to the world problems (money, Guantanamo, trading) is none. They like to look hyper correct, but their way is abuse. They pest their environment to be able to deliver us their TRASH. Typical transgressors the chinese.
It was around the 12th of June when guantanamo went Palau, a good solution for 17 Uyghurs. All that China had to protest (they only protest and do not have the power for more), these Uyghurs are suspected terrorists. Listen Chinese: We do not care about what you think.
gogul: "michael Jacksons music and life is politically irrelevant. A few interesting people died lately, how about McNamara. Michael Jackson is taking too much space on this board."
Temo: Re:I would have destroyed his ego to start with.
gogul: the whole Western world is guilty of selling trash to Africa in one form or another and we carry on doing so sadly because they are not in a strong enough postition to do anything about
most of the Western worlds unwanted computers are send to India and China to be broken up in horrilbe conditions
we know it shouldnt be happening and there are laws in place to stop it BUT it still is happening
(V): Frankly, who cares? MJ is dead. He's still dead. He's no model for anything. He was a musician and that's that. His personal life is not something to hold up as a model. He was a drug addict. He engaged in illegal activities. He was an abuser of drug and that's what killed him. And I'm growing tired of the victim attitude. Lots of people have poor childhoods but that's no excuse to do some of the things MJ did. Let's face it, if he were a old white unemployed bum, fat and unshaven, who just happened to have a similar unpleasant upbringing, and he was "sharing his bed" with kiddies (as a bridge to his childhood or whatever) you'd sing a different tune. So would the world.
Too many people made excuses for MJ in his life. That's why he's dead. Now they are making excuses in his death. Beyond stupid.
I loved his music. Ben is a favorite. I'm sorry he's dead. But facts are facts. He died because he abused drugs. And he paid a unscrupulous doctor to acquire the drugs illegally and administer them illegally. In that respect, MJ was a criminal. But the left will not allow this. Even though they went after Rush Limbaugh for his addiction to pills, and they wanted his head, MJ does worse and the left has only platitudes.
I don't trust him. I think all this stimulus crap will bite the US in the butt. It was declared an emergency in the beginning (to ward off the dreaded 9% unemployment that was sure to come if they didn't pass it) but now we are in double digits and they are talking about another stimulus package. Nice.
One way to cripple America is to bankrupt her. That's where this huge spending President is heading. And don't be mistaken, his honeymoon days are over. The economy is worsening. Taxpayers will see increases in their taxes and deductions are already being eliminated. When you want to sell your home in the future you'll have to jump through a bunch of Federal regulations. Big Brother is here.
As to Al Frankin: All the votes were NOT counted. Read the news. That's at the heart of the issue. The democrats disputed legitimate votes and the courts sided with the democrats. Never mind that in some districts there was double counting etc. The same sort of nonsense happened here in this State. Minnesota has now elected an ex wrestler and a failed radio host.
The Democrats have a little more than three years to mess this country up and then there will be a change in leadership. In two years the democratic majority will not stand. People are already tired of their nonsense. watch and see. Obama is losing favor in strongholds. In one stronghold he's down 11%. That's a big deal.
Temo: Re:Too many people made excuses for MJ in his life. That's why he's dead. Now they are making excuses in his death. Beyond stupid.
Artful Dodger: Yes... I think everyone agrees with that. That's why this could cause alot of good.... as stated!!
"Lots of people have poor childhoods but that's no excuse to do some of the things MJ did."
It's part of the cycle.. that's what I'm hoping such a big death in terms of publicity will change. Quite frankly if everyone just moans about the death and the hype then that will do no good.
And Bush already bankrupted America. Also he wanted more BiG BROTHER to monitor everything Americans did in the name of homeland security.
So.... everything you are accusing the democrats of doing, the republicans have done already!!
