A good person trying to do good things. Her heart is sure in the right place.

Her voice is absolutely incredible. I hope she finds comfort in the diagnosis and I hope the doctors can help. God sure does some strange things, He will take a perfect talent and put it into an imperfect body. I guess it’s to remind us to look deeper at things because we might miss his hidden treasures.

She seems to be a very sweet person, and she can belt out a nice tune.

It was the wrong diagnosis when I was a kid. The modern conception of Asperger syndrome came into existence in 1981 and went through a period of popularization, becoming standardized as a diagnosis in the early 1990s.

You have got to be kidding.
I knew she had aspbergers from the first time she performed.

I hope she can continue singing-—I kept her performance on my desk top, and every once and a while, I listen to it again.

Susan Boyle is in THE CHRISTMAS CANDLE, a family-oriented Christmas movie. Her acting is fine, and of course her singing is incredible. What a wonderful inspiration this movie will be to anyone who has been diagnosed with Asberger's!
What a wonderful Christmas Candle to extend to people who share her ailment!
PS: I'd recommend seeing the movie. It's a classic.

My best friend from Jr High had aspergers.
He could understand anything except how to properly deal with other people.
He looked an awful lot like Maynard from the old "Dobie Gillis" TV show.
I remember we were all marched to the cafeteria one day for an IQ test.
When the results came back our teacher said two members of the class had scored above everyone else...it was me and my asperger buddy.
Everyone was shocked because they all assumed my friend was retarded.
Everyone I have met who had aspergers was extremely smart in some way.
The greatest mind of the 20th century (IMO) had aspergers.

I knew nothing about her until I saw a Youtube video a few months ago. The Aspie was obvious.

I've got several friends who tell me I have Asperger's.
I've had to explain to them the difference between Asperger's and my particular condition.
Asperger's is a condition that shrinks can diagnose.
My condition can be diagnosed by any layman.
Its called not giving a "flying rat's ass".

Not to hijack the thread, but didn’t Rush Limbaugh have a show where he said Asberger’s is a made-up pop psychology illness?

I had a boss whose wife said unequivocally that he had this syndrome. It was a living hell for every employee.
