I don't recall saying anything about you or calling you out about anything so you'll have to talk to someone else about that. It's ok to insult her because she is/was a public figure that made some horrible choices in her life which ultimately lead to her death. It has nothing to do with her gender or race, I said the same sort of things about Michael Jackson when he died and he was white.

Of course Whitney didn't do that, she left everything to her spoiled brat drug addict daughter who'll just squander it in a couple years and end up dead just like her crack addict mom.
You are very mean-spirited. Why?

Michael Jackson was a child molestor. Yes, I know many chose to forget that at his passing. I didn't. Whitney though? Come on. She was a nice woman who sang some inspirational songs. Really? You want to pick on her?

People said the exact same things when Amy Whinehouse died, was that because she was black too? People said the exact same things about Michael Jackson, he wasn't technically a woman.

You're just too sensitive about this, Whitney wasn't forced to become a crack ***** just like Rush wasn't forced to become addicted to Oxy. People should always be held responsible for their mistakes otherwise other people will never learn from them. If nobody talks about it her daughter might grow up to believe that what he mom did was right.

When? I laugh at liberals who attack him 24/7 but I've never defended him. I support his right to speak his mind but I think he's as stupid as Whitney Houston was for ruining a great career with drugs.

Whitney Houston had the world given to her and she smoked it away, I have very little respect for people like that. I don't believe we should idolize people like that, it gives children the wrong idea of what they should strive for. There are thousands of people who can sing as well if not better than Whitney Houston but they aren't going to get the chances she did. They also aren't going to drown in a bathtub high on drugs.

She was a detested drug addict though, right? I mean, don't you lefties despise people that abuse prescription drugs?

Yet you are silent about Whitney? I thought people addicted to prescription drugs deserve derision and mocking.
