This guy needs medication.

Hi Jonny. Thanks for pinging me to this fun thread. Sometimes, the more putrid a Leftist's bile, the funnier they are, albeit unintentionally. In Montgomery's case, maybe the problem is that he's taken too much...ummm..."medication" in his life. :)

What I find so interesting about the current Leftist political culture is that they are ranting venomously from the pulpit to academia to Congress, all the way to an MTV music critic's column. Yet these are the people whose "savior" is supposed to unify us all in one big kumbaya moment. Blah!

Which, of course, will leave the likes of Montgomery to stew in their own putrid juices, wondering why Cookie and not them.

Well, let me explain it to him.

On Idol, David Cook showed up with what looked like grungy hair, a blank puffy face, a stupid "feather" of red paint in his forelock, and zero presence. His voice was not bad.

Over a very short time, the rough diamond began to shine through. He had intelligence. He had heart and he started to pour it into his songs. His voice was smoky rich. He made that huge point to show the orange rubber bracelet he wore for the tiny little girl undergoing cancer treatments. He broke down when his very ill brother was able to be flown to L.A. to see him perform. He was gracious to all of his fellow contestants. He was funny. He was sweet. His face is not blank at all: now it's handsome with twinkles in his eyes and a Grinchlike smile across his lips.

And he really is good: great voice and fun to watch. I'm listening to him right now and I look forward to hearing more. He knows how to give 100% of himself when performing. And he's a nice guy.

Yeah! There doesn’t seem to be anything else to buy. But even that is good.

I’m not knowledgeable about downloading music, but, is there a way to record off the youtube videos?

Ok then it's official. Cookie is the reason for our dependency on foreign oil. I hope he can live with himself.

Nice post and well said, but the use of reason is lost on people like Montgomery. :)

Grin...and global warming, and the condition of all African countries, and not cleaning up after the latest disaster somewhere, and not spending enough on education, and, well, every cotton-picking little thing we expect of our presidents these days. Now it's all Cookie's fault. ;-)

Yep. And the cost of health insurance. That’s on him, too.

You're sadly asking the wrong person. I am sure you could, but I don't know how. Also, would the quality be any good? Maybe someone else will see this and know.

Good thing I like Cookie and his music. Otherwise I might just have to write a backstabbing tell-all book about him. ;-)

After all, he CARES. More than you and me and the next guy (such is his conceit). Not about so-called Red staters, you understand, but about all the downtrodden, unappreciated, presumably struggling Josiah Lemings out there in the dark.

I think he only CARES about himself and how he can slam ANYONE who made it. Don't think he wouldn't have slammed Josiah, the gay Ish boy, the Tat Chick, or Monchichi if they'd won.

You were right in your later posts. And so was a guy called Aesop a couple thou years ago who penned a little fable about Sour Grapes.

Now it's all Cookie's fault.

But, but, here's the GREAT thing about that. Dontchaknow, he can make Everything Better again. By adding a Prius to his fleet of planes, trains, and automobiles, and of course dong ONE of his metamillion$ concerts for a Save Our Precious Carbon charity, then Cookie will have DONE something.

Doesn't this stupid MTV writer BELEEEVE in the Stars Giving Back as the solutions to all the world's problems? ;)

You can save YouTube videos to your computer using this site:

KeepVid

Turning them into audio recordings is more involved - you would need to download a converter that could turn the .FLV video file into an MP3. There is a link on the KeepVid site.

what does David Cook winning "American Idol" mean for Barack Obama's chances in November? Or for ever withdrawing from Iraq?

No, I missed that part--LOL!! Looks like Mr. Montgomery picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue :)

In Montgomery's case, maybe the problem is that he's taken too much...ummm..."medication" in his life. :)

LOL--yeah, after reading more of his paranoid article, I'd say that's very likely :)
