As my friends mourn and as the Hollywood press play the faux role of mourners.. I have bitten my tongue. Did I admire Whitney Houston's talent and God given voice.... you bet!
Do I see her death as a hero's death or a national tragedy -- hell no! But I said nothing...
But Ted Nugent has said it so cogently, I will link you to his short eulogy - (read opinion piece) - because he says it so well....
As it pertains to life and death, we should keep our priorities in check. If you want to celebrate and remember people who have passed much too soon and who really matter, I recommend you visit Arlington National Cemetery, where you can walk among rows and rows of true heroes. Watch the guards march in silent reverence at the Tomb of the Unknowns. They matter. They are forever worthy of our remembrance. They made the ultimate sacrifice for worthy causes: freedom and the American way.
Go here for the rest of his piece....... and then mourn away..... as you like.
