compassion is important...but free will is also pretty important IMO...and she made her own choices...and she suffered the consequences of those decisions. Is it sad? sure...but why should I feel bad about it?

Did she make mistakes? Yes she did and some dosey of mistakes. Our job is not to judge her by those mistakes. I for one feel sorry for her. Call me crazy if you must, but I think she was a decent human being. Yes, she was into drugs, but that is a mistake that she had to deal with the consequences of. But then again how many of us have had to handle the death of a child? Do we know what she was going through?

Yes, she was on drugs before her son died. SHe has made MANY mistakes in her life. But most of her mistakes hurt herself and not others. Did she hurt others, maybe but I don't know.

I just know that I for one am not going to condemn someone for making mistakes. So what if she slept with a lot of men. DON'T MOST MEN TRY TO SLEEP WITH EVERY BEAUTIFUL WOMAN? Double standard in this country.

Amen...a woman sleeps with a different man every week and she's a slut, a man sleeps with a different woman every day and he's a stud! But then, if folks stay busy pointing out the shortcomings of others, they can ignore theirs!

just to be clear...my opinion of her has ZERO to do with how many people she might have slept with...

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17153473/site/newsweek/

an interesting article on anna nicole and objectification of women and the prominence of sex in society.

not sure how i feel about it entirely, but it only takes a few minutes to read -- the end is certainly pointed if nothing else.

I know all of my shortcomings...as she may have known all of hers...but I'm not a public figure, nor do I desire to be. She wanted nothing less than fame...and got it...and like it or not a person in the public eye will have to endure the public's scrutiny of their lifestyle...is it judgemental? absolutely...but it's also a reality.
But I would love to have some one point out some of her good works...because I personally haven't heard of any.
I was taught that family is number one priority and that charity begins at home...these are beliefs that I hold very strongly...they appear to run counter to what Ms. Smith believed (at least as evidenced by many of her actions)...and so while I think her early death is too bad I don't feel bad for her...she lived the life that she wanted.

I give up...whatever makes you feel good! I'm done, made my point as best I could!

what exactly were you trying to infer about all of us? I guess hypocrisy knows no bounds.

Yep, the usual response! Must be a hypocrite for speaking the truth! Again, I was responding to Buffy's point...I don't recall using names!
