Welcome To Our World, your comments are always appreciated
And tomorrow we will see pages and pages of the tear-gushing idiots all over the news..
Thank God it's almost over.
dd2...on June 25th, 2 soldiers were killed in Afghanistan...what media attention did they receive? Congress held a moment of silence for Jackson, are your frikkin kidding me? A moment of silence for a freak? Is this the nation our soldiers are putting their life on the line for? These brave men and women sacrifice everything, some their own life and what recognition do they receive?
Has there ever been a memorial tribute in the LA Colosium for our troops?
This is wrong!
America, wake the hell up!

I'm just glad this didn't happen while Bush was POTUS. The conspiracy theorists would have loved to sink their teeth into that one.
Am I correct when I heard that California is paying for Jackson's funeral and tribute? If that's true, what the hell? They're BROKE! My sister lives in San Diego and received an IOU for her state income tax refund and they are footing the bill to burying MJ? Why isn't Joe or Janet paying to bury him? They ARE his relatives and they are hardly broke. You can't write this crap in a novel. If you did, people would label it FICTION! People need to get a grip and a life. There wasn't this much "grief" over the Pope for crying out loud! I'm ready to lose my mind. I can't even watch television anymore for fear I'm going to see MJ's face or hear his name.
totally agree; I heard CNN was going to start their coverage at 6 a.m. this morning. For crying out loud.........totally ridiculous!!!
betty
NO better rants on Jacko then yours!!!! KUDO's for putting it out there the truth, of what a disgusting human being he was. He was a sick and twisted individual....... He is going to a place now that is HOT, very hot....... I hope his nose doesnt melt off... LOL
It is amazing there hasn't been a white face on the stage of the memorial and Jackson did everything he could to erase his blackness.
Man alive DD2, you are hot today!
Awesome thoughts and post, and on the Money...But I will issue a warning, just because the memorial was today, doesn't mean that the Media is done.
-FAR FROM IT...
There will be his WILL issues to still be dealt with, and we WILL be barraged with this crap too. So folks? Bolster yourselves?
The onslaught will continue with this FAUX hero worship of objectionable, so-called "HEROES" of this sad society, and the particuliarally the media.
The frenzy will continue in my humble opinion. Time we just turned them off, and focused on what's really important, like this Republic being taken out by the same DREGS of society that practice this "Worship"
~FAIR WARNING~
-FAR FROM IT...is right,we'll be hearing this crapola for years!
I decided to watch some TV tonight, now that the Jackson stuff was over with.
I have only "through-the-air-TV, no cable or dish.
Channels 11, 20 26, 30, 36 and 46 all were stuffed with Jackson.
It will be a long time before I decide to watch TV again.
AMEN!!
Okay, I need to rant.
I was just watching the news, and I caught part of a report on Michael
Jackson . As we all know, Jackson died the other day. He was an
entertainer who performed for decades. He made millions, he spent
millions, and he did a lot of things that make him a villain to many
people. I understand that his death would affect a lot of people, and
I respect those people who mourn his death, but that isn't the point
of my rant.
Why is it that when ONE man dies, the whole of America loses their
minds with grief. When a man dies whose only contribution to the
country was to ENTERTAIN people, the American people find the need to
flock to a memorial in Hollywood , and even Congress sees the need to
hold a "moment of silence" for his passing?
Am I missing something here? ONE man dies, and all of a sudden he's a
freaking martyr because he entertained us for a few decades? What
about all those SOLDIERS who have died to give us freedom? All those
Soldiers who, knowing that they would be asked to fight in a war,
still raised their hands and swore to defend the Constitution and the
United States of America . Where is there moment of silence? Where
are the people flocking to their graves or memorials and mourning over
them because they made the ultimate sacrifice? Why is it when a
Soldier dies, there are more people saying "good riddance," and "thank
God for IEDs?" When did this country become so calloused to the
sacrifice of GOOD MEN and WOMEN, that they can arbitrarily blow off
their deaths, and instead, throw themselves into mourning for a "Pop
Icon?"
I think that if they are going to hold a moment of silence IN CONGRESS
for Michael Jackson, they need to hold a moment of silence for every
service member killed in Iraq and Afghanistan . They need to PUBLICLY
recognize every life that has been lost so that the American people
can live their callous little lives in the luxury and freedom that WE,
those that are living and those that have gone on, have provided for
them. But, wait, that would take too much time, because there have
been so many willing to make that sacrifice. After all, we will never
make millions of dollars. We will never star in movies, or write hit
songs that the world will listen too. We only shed our blood, sweat
and tears so that people can enjoy what they have.
Sorry if I have offended, but I needed to say it. Feel free to pass
this along if you want.
Remember these five words the next time you think of someone who is
serving in the military;
"So that others may live..."
