Comments on: Will Obama Make A Statement On Jackson?

[stryker54]

Who cares if Obama says anything about MJ? I watched this kid grow up as an entertainer. Never cared that much for his music after he left Jackson 5, didn't care that much when he was with Jackson 5 either. Even tho his popularity grew over the years I see NO reason to IDOLIZE any performer. Regardless he is just another person that has came to the end of his life like we all will do. May he rest in peace, but there is nothing anyone can do know. MJ is gone, over, lets get on with things like we would reading any obit of a stranger, because that is what he is by most, just another stranger. Just because you listen to his music you think you knew him. You didn't. He's no better than the rest of us in this world. We come we go.

Why would Obama make a comment on Jackson's death? Were they lifelong friends? Will Obama comment on Farrah's death? How about the death of the OxyClean pitchman? This is why race remains a divide. Just the comment that Obama should make any comment about Jackson is clearly a race issue and needs to be avoided.

Exactly. That CBS even put such a crazy headline out there was shear pandering to trolls.

Are you fricking kidding me??? All of the shiatt going on in the world, and the media is concerned whether or not the US President will "make a statement" about the death of a pop singer?

bonjour
que la maison blanche en la personne de monsieur obama fasse un communiqué, serait bien, un clin d'oeil pour rendre hommage, dire au revoir au "roi de la pop", est la meilleure façon de le remercier, aux nom de millions de fans a travers le monde, comme le soldat, le scientifique, le cosmonaute etc.., michael jackson aussi a marqué l'histoire, par son talent exceptionnel, et de la meilleure des façon et pour cause ses tubes seront chantés encore et encore par les générations a venir.qu'il repose en paix au revoir

"My fellow Americans...we have lost one of the greatest pedophiles of our time...although I have daughters, I wouldn't let them near this crazy bastard, but our long national nightmare is over. Therefore, it is with great personal umbrage that I announce a day of remembrance for Iran, which was removed from the headlines recently...and citizens, let us never let another crazy bastard take a place in our hearts. Agreed? Now, the national keg party has been rescheduled to meet in Kansas. I'll be there. I'm going to bring my integrity. That is still alive."

Now who is judging people... Farrah Faucett nor Ed McMahon held their children from their feet outside a balcony like a rag doll. Neither of them was accused of child molestation either. I hope you do not claim you go to church talking about casting stones.

Dude. MJ the last thing MJ wanted to be was black. Have you seen him lately? Even for a white he was too white. Despite his musical achievements, they are over shadowed by his pedophelia.... He went over the edge a long time ago and never looked back. And by the way, Maobama only turned black after the election. :-) LOL
