President Reaches Out to Jackson Family

46. How do we know Obama DIDN'T send letters of condolence to the families of the Arkansas murder victim, Fawcett or McMahon? This TMZ site is talking about Jackson and only Jackson; just because it wasn't mentioned on the first page of TMZ doesn't mean it didn't happen, Einstein.

And let's give Obama more than 5 months in office before we trash his policies, shall we?

48. Gee we just can't keep the masses happy. Why is it that this is always a race issue, by the way isn't Michael white lol... What did Farrah do to contribute to the world along with Mc Mahon? If you don't like what is going on than go to the sites for idiots. There are those here that are in shock and need to vent POSITIVE! God if Obama had to write a letter to every one that died he wouldn't get his job done THAN you would bitch because he wasn't doing his job lol.. you just can't please the masseslol Opinions are like AS*&%LEs everyone has one lol... bend over

49. Because as of two weeks after he was murdered in cold blood, according to Liberal CNN, the White House hadn't even issued an official response to his death, Einstein.

I'm sure some Jews said "let's give Hilter more than 5 months" as well.....

50. Never thought I'd see the day that a President could actually make Jimmy Carter's miserable four years seem like a walk in the park. Obama has to be the anti-Christ

51. I'm sorry but jackson is gone and we have more important concerns as a country. All of a sudden I have not heard anything about North Korea and the threat of missle attack????? Have they stopped sailing with weapons to mourn Michael Jackson? I'm sorry but there are more important things going on in this country and I'm personally very tired of hearing about it, yes it is sad when a family loses a loved one, i've had to endure this many times amd i feel sorry for the family but enough is enough!

53. Why is the president sending a note to the Jackson family? If he is sending condolences, he should send them to Farrah's family as well. This just makes him look racist that he only sends sympathies to a black family when other famous people deserve the same. Then again why should this even surprise anyone, this is what our country has become.

54. ISNT THAT WONDERFUL OUR PRESIDENT TAKING TIME OUT OF HIS BUSY DAY OF RUNNING OUR COUNTRY AND NOT WORRING ABOUT KOREA OR THE JOBS, OR ALL THE DEBT HE GOT US INTO... AND SAID A FEW WORDS OF SORROW ABOUT THE PASSING OF AN ACCUSED PEDOPHILE/DRUGGIE.... AM SURE MANY PEDOPHILE AND DRUG ADDICTS IN THE PRISIONS LIKE TO HAVE THE PRESIDENT SAY WORDS ABOUT THEM AS WELL! MAYBE THE PRESIDENT SHOULD WORRY ABOUT HELPING AMERICANS OUT OF ALL THIS DEBT HE PUT US IN, AND A LIL LESS WORRIED ABOUT TRYING TO BE A CELEB!

55. I see Obama sent a letter of sympathy to M.Jackson family.
How thoughtful of the president. Now, do you think that Obamo sent a letter of sympathy to
Farrah family..Or Ed of the tonight show?

56. Let's be honest for a second though. It's not like Obama is really doing anything else. He has all his minions carrying out his "let's destroy the U.S. asap" campaign on his behalf. So I can totally see him having plenty of free time to pass notes.

57. I agree@ # 33...I love President Obama, but didn't like the message he relayed through his press secretary. I think he did it now because he knew it looked bad that other world leaders sent their condolences.

58. Here go the black/white slurs to the president. Jackson's death was HUGE. That's why he wrote a letter, there have been other black entertainers that have died and he did not write a letter, so please get over it. I am white and see no racial discrimination in this at all.

59. Here go the black/white slurs to the president. Jackson's death was HUGE. I am white and see no racial issues with this. And to the posters who say Obama is the one ruining our country, he stepped into office when it was nearly ruined already from 8 years of the worst president in history. Don't give us that BS, he's trying to fix the hell caused by the Bush wack, who should be in jail for murder of our soldiers and starting a war when we were not attacked by the country. Billions of dollars a month on the war and our economy was tanking, let's be real and put the blame on whose fault this actually is. A president cannot cause this horrible financial and economic situation in 5 months. But a president can cause it over 8 years of lies and deceit and spending for the rich.

60. Answer to question #1: Because they are white and Obama is only half. Obama only wants to identify with his black "culture". AND Obama may have been molested my MJ as well and holds a special place for him in his heart! C'mon, everyone, it's not okay to be a racist...unless it's toward a white person!!
