Have most of his CD’s Love Paris, but he has become tedious with his boring politics and I find him offensive.

FDS stands.

"...give “A Pirate Looks at Forty” just a wee listen. Or “He Went to Paris.”

My 2 all-time fav Buffet songs - simply brilliant.

He's still a socialist hypocrite preaching socialism while earning millions thru free market capitalism.

I just don’t see his politics publicized, not up here in the boonies, so that doesn’t stick in my craw as much I guess.

I mean, I had heard he was “pro-Obama” which is enough to put him beyond the pale.

But I’ve also read about him being tough with suck-up journalists who are really looking to scoop up some goodies by hanging close or are looking for a chance to stick a knife in his back. I admire his approach in that regard.

Hell, I remember too when he opened his new hotel on the Redneck Riveria just a few weeks after the big gulf oil spill, and his comments that day on the beach were a hell of a lot more inspiring and even Presidential than anything f’ing Obama managed then or any other time. Buffett basically said that people in the gulf and Americans in general had whipped up on adversity far larger than the BP mess, and that we would take care of this too and come out better on the other side.

After several days of Obama whining and conniving on the subject, I was about ready to doff my cowboy hat to cousin Jimmy.

‘Course later that day or a couple days later I heard him praising our ball-less leader and that pretty much soured me on Jim and his damned hotel. But not on him and his lifetime of music...

So that’s that.

agree, anyone with Bush derangement Syndrome is a butter ignorant loser.

no matter how much I like his music I can not forgive his politics.

being a psychopant is just not in my blood

I’ll agree he isn’t fat.

Well, I’m happy for you to be dealing only with Buffett derangement syndrome instead.

Try putting a little more butter in whatever you’re drinking. They say that sometimes eases the sting.

By the way the proper spelling, when one is sober, is “sycophant”.

I am so sorry I did not run spell check.

But, like the typical lefty when one disagrees one must resort to slander and personal attack.

Since I am neither a drunk nor Buffett hater, I’ll leave it at that.
