Wow - the whole story looks so incredibly sad.
(February 8, 2007)— One-time Mexia chicken restaurant waitress turned Playboy model turned heiress turned reality TV star Anna Nicole Smith died Thursday afternoon after she was found unconscious in her hotel room at the Hard Rock Cafe and Casino in Hollywood, Fla., a law enforcement source told CNN.

How sad! Loses her son a few months ago, and now her baby is motherless. I hope it wasn't a drug od.

They haven't determined yet. It really IS sad but you could almost see this coming. Her life just went through the downward spiral after the death of her son daniel. Through just about every interview since then she had always looked like she was heavily medicated and just generally depressed. So sad.

Jesus, that IS sad. She never struck me as a particularly happy person.

How bout going after all the drug companies for being irresponsible-and I'm sure not one doctor turned her down-yeah Anna take some more pills -they'll make you feel better and you'll be thin.....Can't wait for Moores next flick. How's this different from Elvis, Judy...

It is very sad. I hope the truth comes out one way or the other on her babies real father. Anna did seem to go down hill after the death of her son. That I can understand happening, having two sons close to the same age myself.
Prayers for her family and friends.

I heard on the news that when Anna Nicole was young, Marilyn Monroe was her idol and that she wanted to be like her. It was not in a tawdry sense. That gave me the shivers how it turned out.
Really sad all the way around. Another candle in the wind.

The search for fame made and probably killed Anna Nicole Smith, how sad it took Vickie Lynn Hogan too.

I hope she can rest in peace. The pain a human being must have deep in their soul to be on drugs or alcohol. It is amazing to me that someone
in that much pain woudn't try to deal with the pain than take a chance
on losing their life.

Allahpundit on Catholics and the Brotherhood:
"Do Catholics really believe they are eating Christ when they take the host? Allah knows that your priests have a taste for flesh–the younger the better, it seems–but this is ridiculous. And you have the gall to mock Muslims for believing that Satan lives in their nostrils at night? Allah will admit that we have our eccentric beliefs like any other faith, but at least cannibalism is not part of the core curriculum. Stop chewing on Jesus, you ghoulish fucks."
Dan: Can we count on you to lead the charge to demand his resignation?

Ok. Now that I actually looked up the original post...
http://web.archive.org/web/20031223161832/www.allahpundit.com/archives/000073.html
Ack. Way to dig up an old skeleton... good grief, woman! (I have no idea if your are male or female, so I'll take a 50/50 guess.)
When you were fishing for this little piece, had it ever occurred to you that Allahpundit was writing in his "Allah-the-god-of-Islam" persona, and that this post was composed over three years ago..? And that he was being most facetious...?
Of course it crossed your mind. You can't possibly be that ignorant.
...But, did you intend to leave the impression that this was a recent post of his?
Are you that desperate to dig for something to counterweight Amanda the Snapperhead's dollops of raw sewage that she tries to pass off as punditry? If so, you will need a tuna trawler or three. Ask Madam Speaker Pelosi - I'm sure she can spare them with all the money she will save with robbing taxpayers for her keys to Air Force Three.
Please try harder next time... because some of us are not easily convinced by disingenuous dirt-digging tactics.

Projecting? I see the liberal blogs are all over it too...
BuzzFlash? Nope. Leading with Iran.
Liberal Avenger? Nope. Leading with Donohue and Malkin.
Pandagon? Nope. Leading with cosmetics and a 3 year old "blue on blue" incident.
Firedoglake? Nope. Leading with more Donohue and Fitzmass v3.1.45.23
AmericaBlog? Nope. Leading with Edwards house, SuperBowl ads, and misc gay stuff.

In Memory of her service, Cpl. Jennifer Parcell, 20, of Bel Air, Md. Died on wednesday Feb. 7 2007 while in supporting combat in the Anbar province.
May we all keep this young woman's family in our prayers and remember that our heroes in service to our country are needing our prayers as well. May God comfort the Parcell's family and may God give them peace in this time of grief.
Also, may we all show a bit more courtesy and class when commenting in threads such as these. Regardless if the person who passed was a media icon who lived a troubled life or was a young woman who died in the service of our country it does not matter. As people we should show a little bit more empathy in such events....politics has no business in this thread.
I have said my piece. I shall comment in this topic no more.

She said she wanted to be like Marilyn Monroe. Now she is.
Posted by: nova | Friday, February 09, 2007 at 09:22 AM
She went to Houston and started as a stripper. She got in Playboy and then went on to modeling for Guess Jeans and creating this fictional character named Anna Nicole Smith modeled after Marilyn Monroe and Jane Mansfield.
Fakery can last only so long. Add in the mix the $$$ and deaths and you have tabloid heaven. So the poor little girl from Texas who never had anything as a child ends up like this.

"Pelosi takes our money, Anna Nichol paid her own way."
Hahaha. Here we have some true Republican mentality in action. Blonde flashes a Playboy scout and a billionare and she's "paid her own way." Mother of five, college graduate, real-estate moogle of the SF Bay Area, and first female Speaker of the House is a welfare queen. I bet Ken Lay was an honorable hardworking business man and George Soros was just a lottery winner. Or maybe Ronald Reagen was a passionate and talented actor while George Clooney was a two-bit no-talent hack?
How do Warren Buffett or Paris Hilton rate? Wait, let me check their campaign contributions.

Anyone who has ever had a sudden death in their life of someone very dear such as a child can understand shock. Everyone handles shock and loss differently...and it can take months to begin to regain your balance and begin to heal from a sudden loss. Valium is very depressing, and I am sure only made her depression worse, because it did mine after my fiance was killed suddenly in a boating accident. But valium does ease the pain for the moment to help you cope. It took me months to begin to rebuild my life after my loss, and once again, everyone handles loss differently.
I cannot imagine losing my son 3 days after giving birth to my daughter...I don't think I could handle it either.
I am sorry the tabloids want this to be an OD or a murder. Personally, I think 105 fever is an indication that she was very ,very physically ill...I thought I heard the Medical Examiner say something about her intestines...she may have had septicemia from bacteria in her intestines getting into her bloodstream which is an acute medical emergency.
When her fever hit 105, she needed to be brought to the ER...
I pray Howard K. Stern gets through this...how ironic if he turns out to be the father after all.

DNICHOLS, so right you are.
Being a parent, I would have done whatever I needed to do, for the sake of my children. Other than public welfare that is. Anna did what she needed to do. Gotta give her credit there. She made her own money, and she kept both of her children.

Newsflash for Jack Cafferty: she was still dead this morning.

"she kept both of her children". Yeah, until one OD'd in front of her. You cons can rationalize anything. Explains why 28% of America still supports that idiot.

I think you'd find conservative would support removing kids from unfit parents more than liberals.
Posted by: Purple Avenger | Saturday, February 10, 2007 at 12:09 PM
PA, liberals wouldn't know about removing children from unfit parents. After all, the 72% would rather end a childs life before it even begins. Easier to raise them, heh.
Posted by: Cindi | Saturday, February 10, 2007 at 12:57 PM
Sorry Cindi but as much as you want to shoot your mouth off you can't end something before it begins. The anti-choice crowd is always good for amusement though if nothing else.
Posted by: Rob Kaufman | Saturday, February 10, 2007 at 01:25 PM
"you can't end something before it begins."
What's a partial birth abortion? Are you going to argue that a few inches of distance one way or the other in a birth canal is somehow meaningful to the "humanity" (or lack there of) of the baby?
That the legal difference between murder and legal procedure somehow hinges on a span of inches rather than the biological condition of the baby strikes me as well...retarded. Yes, that's the right word - retarded.
Posted by: Purple Avenger | Saturday, February 10, 2007 at 02:45 PM
Rob, I am not concerned with the pro death movement. I figure in the next 20 or so years, democrats will have aborted almost 20% of their offspring. Good heavens.....there is a GOD!
Seems to me Robbie, you are against children all together. If not life in general. Don't forget to wrap that pecker Robbie, god forbid you should have an accident that resulted in a child.

Nice try, but I will just go with the standard until the fetus is viable it is not alive. Thank you for playing the game and please try again.

Thank you for your kind thoughts Cindi, it is touching to me that you care so much. I already have the children I want so no need to have anymore. I am impresssed that you are able to type though with your head up your own ass as far as it is. I do love seeing the intolerance of the anti-choice crowd is full display.
Posted by: Rob Kaufman | Saturday, February 10, 2007 at 04:39 PM
"Z....Liberals do things Anna would never do :)"
Like, keep their kids off drugs? Or donating to charity? Or having standards? Face it, the only reason conservatives give a flying flip about Anna Nicole is because she coughed up bucko bucks to the Party. Now the money well is running dry and its time for the crocodile tears.
And Cindi - assuming that's not a guy's name - maybe you should keep your hands out of other people's vaginas, mmk? If you want to have the rape-child of your stepfather after having being violated by his drunken, AIDs infested wing-wong, we don't want to get in your way. However, some people consider quality of life when deciding to have a family. And some people don't consider eight cells in the back of the cervix quite the same as a newborn baby. So if you want to live like a hill-billy, the pro-choice movement won't get in your way with having fifteen kids on a four figure income. Kindly tell the pro-life community to stop bludgeoning women with rocks on the way to a clinic for a check-up and to stop tossing moltav cocktails into doctors' offices. That's not pro-life, that's pro-violent stupidity.

Anna donated to the GOP?

Define "viable" in crisp legally enforceable terms.
Posted by: Purple Avenger | Saturday, February 10, 2007 at 06:51 PM
"Define "viable" in crisp legally enforceable terms."
Ah, yes, because everything "legal" is crisp and black and white. If there is any conceivable course of action that could turn a zygote, blastula, or fetus into an independent human being, then it is alive and its life must be considered equal to anyone else's and therefore it is to be saved at all costs. There can be no possible shades of meaning here. Right?
Well. I'll answer your question as soon as you answer mine. Deal?
You are in a burning fertility clinic. In one corner is a single two-year-old child. In the other corner is a petri dish with, I don't know, one thousand fertilized eggs in it. You only have time to save one and escape.
Which do you choose, and why?
(Keep in mind: you could theoretically take each one of the eggs and implant it into a womb, and therefore they're all viable, and therefore they must have souls, and therefore it's a simple matter of saving one life versus saving a thousand lives. A Snowflake Baby is just as good as a toddler, thanks to modern science!)
Posted by: scarshapedstar | Saturday, February 10, 2007 at 08:14 PM
I realize everyone is entitled to their opinion. I am quite happy, knowing liberals use abortion as birth control.
PA, what they mean is not viable until it can be a tax credit.

Let me get this straight. A liberal goes into a fertility clinic with a two year old?, leaves that two year alone,expecting someone else to watch out for that child, while they go into the lil room to look at playboy and jerk off into a plastic cup? all for 20.00?
For me, there never would have been a choice. When the idiot walked away from the child, I would have objected. Geez, is this the same kid who was left alone to be raped by her step father and his friend? lmao
