Open Thread: Michael Jacksona and Farrah Fawcett
On Thursday, we lost two icons in the entertainment industry: Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett. Instead of reflecting their weakness, let's remember their talent.
Post your thoughts.

I don't think Michael Jackson molested any child. I also don't like the way he was treated by society. His weakness was in not realising how having children over at his ranch and allowing them to sleep in his room would be viewed as incriminating or leave him susceptible to the actions of grifters.
He was clearly as talented and successful an artist as any other.
I wrote a bit on him at:

I believe that society is to blame for Michael's young death. He didn't bleach his face. He didn't molest any children. His childhood was robbed from him.
His famous friends had their own activist projects. Lady Di was against mines. Elizabeth Taylor worked on AIDS. Michael was an advocate for children. It must have scarred him deeply to be portrayed as a pedophile. I believe society played a large role in Michael Jackson's death, just as the blogosphere did with Dave's.

Hi Antoinette. I hope you are doing well. I have some new entries up at DFQ2. The first has some excerpts from Mark Singer's brilliant book concerning the Speedway Bomber and serial fabulist Brett Kimberlin. The second one has plenty of info on agent provocateurs exposed. Hal Turner's attorney is saying that Sean Hannity's good buddy from New Jersey was trained by the FBI to incite violence. That sounds like cointelpro to me. Hal actually put up bomb making info on the net many years ago. I don't believe he was ever arrested for that. Sherman Austin of the Raise The Fist fame, on the other hand, got his gonads clamped down by Diane Feinstein and others for having similar materials found on his server, even though he wasn't the one who had originally posted it.

Thanks Antoinette for restoring this website. I think it is a beautiful thing you are doing in Dave's honour. He was not out of line with his trollbusting of the UGOGs. For those wondering how he did it, one of them had visited this domain. Through sitemeter or whatever, Dave was able to discerne which website the person had been located at before of after. From there he uncovered a DKos vigilante moderating racket which eventually was proven to be closely associated to top DKos administrators. What lurkers need to realise is that Markos Moulitsas Zuniga comes from the El Salvadoran oligarchy. He has never discussed the right wing death squads which were in cahoots with the CIA. To Markos, bloodshed in El Salvador were the responsibility of the lefties. Markos basically is on the wrong side of history and is not a progressive. In 2006, Markos declared in an interview with the Commonwealth Club that the CIA is a liberal institution with its heart in the right place. He even said he went all the way through an interview process with them and instead of accepting a clandestine spy position, he went to work for Howard Dean. During that same period, the Daily Kos was in full operation. Hmmm.

I`m so sorry about their death. Especially of Michael Jackson. As Madonna said he was, and stays, the King.
