I'd never have thought I'd miss the MJ circus,

[TheCowsCameHome]

but this week almost makes me wish that media-induced frenzy was dominating the news.

This week has really sucked.

2. Mika very nearly had a melt down today. She said she was getting

a ton of hate mail for her "position" on the Gates thing. I think what unhinged her was Gene Robinson calling her out. He said "Mika, you know I love you but you do this thing..." and he went on to say how she doesn't really address the issue and what I think he meant was that she was acting a part, the "disinterested bystander." Or something like that.

Mika looked stunned. Robinson is a regular on the show, a Pulitzer Prize winner and a very nice guy. She must have felt cut to the bone with his criticism.

4. I really agree with that. Criticism from anyone but Eugene would be

just another thing, but Eugene is so fair and balanced to be pwned by him would crush me...LOL.

3. I'm glad that people..

are distracted by all the stupid shit, like the stupidly comment, Gates, birthers. Even though it all borders on the absolute ridiculous, it gives MJ a break, and some peace, which is what he deserves. Now I can peacefully put "Thriller"on my stereo, and enjoy it and appreciate his genius.
