^^^ Love him or hate him, Obama had class.
I believe Obama is genuinely a really nice guy and has a good heart. He was just a shitty leader. If you look all through history most of your great leaders were rather ruthless. I can't think of any great President we've ever had that wasn't ruthless at times.Quote:

YMMV

Goes to show, you don't ever really know what demons people are battling. It may be easier to understand the guy with no money or family killing themselves, but he seemed to have a pretty good life. I can't say I ever saw more than 15 minutes of his show, but it seemed alright if you're into that kind of show. But talk about a sweet gig for a foodie. Get paid well to travel all over the world and eat food.Quote:

A celebrity commits suicide and the media goes ballistic.... 22 veterans commit suicide each day and the media doesn't really give a shit....

Bummer. I figured it was just a matter of time since I haven't seen him on the show for at least a year.Quote:

The “Queen of Soul” Aretha Franklin has left the building at 76.
I have a really good friend here in Utah who sang back-up with her. Here's her post from this morning:Quote:

I (and another singer friend) were hired to sing the super high notes she wanted on top of the soprano section of her Gospel choir. She wanted the sound up there to be clarion clear and clean, unlike the richer, fuller sound of the regular soprano section. It was tough singing sometimes because at that point she continually smoked during rehearsals. I often stood next to her during the rehearsals. Behind me was her glass case of Grammys and other awards. Her walls were lined with tributes and pictures of her with every conceivable celebrity. We had to sing in NYC and were invited to join her on her tour bus. (she did not like to fly) Many singers did, but I chose to fly to NYC instead. That trip might have really been something! It was an interesting time."
Robin Leach (Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous) has left the building at 76.
Sen. John McCain has left the building at 81.
Although he spoke out of school sometimes I still liked him. Hell I voted for him when he ran for president with moose tracks.
I'd hit Palin still.... same thing I got with her as I do Sarah Huckabee Sanders. It's weird.Quote:
