		<description>hawkmama, I totally agree.  

It does seem abusive to push your child into an industry that is notoriously harsh and subject him to the criticism that will inevitably come.  And to think - he's been doing this since he was 7!  

Except, it wasn't AI's fault back then.  Who else could we hold responsible for crucifying David's spirit?  (hint: the answer is not the commenters here)</description>

		<description>Jason is absolutely the worst. Looks terrible, needs a hair cut, needs talent.
Brooke was on her way out - too bad becasue she has talent but is insecure as all get-out.
David A. is being strung along to bolster the show's ratings. He doesn't "have it" despite what the judges say. Obviously it's a show and its scripted as Paula's "mistake" proves.
Syesha is really fun to watch perform, so what's so bad about that?  She sings well and has talent. I don't see the negatives here.
David C. is the winner already regardless of much else that happens.  He has the hollywood persona and will fit right in to the music world.  Too bad really in a way because he may succumb to the sleazy side of the business as well.  Time will tell, but somebody's going to make a lot of money off his talent.</description>

		<description>I believe that the young age limit for Idol should be raised to 19.  It almost seems abusive to let a 17 year old junior in high school be subjected to the vile criticism that David A is being pounded by.  Although really no one deserves to have their spirits crucified in the manner that some bloggers are doing.  

Could I suggest that maybe SOME of you need to get a life?  and a heart while you're at it?</description>

		<description>Is American Idol turning into an Up With People contest?  Missy... while I'm sure David A. is very sweet and pure of heart... that has absolutely nothing to do with who should win this competition.  The same can be said for those who are bothered by David C.'s scruffy looks... seriously, who cares?  It SHOULD be about what each contestant does with the music they choose each week... which makes David C., hands down, the winner.  But, I was/am a Michael fan, so what do I know?!</description>

		<description>Well said, Denise. David Arugula can indeed sing, but he's a kid who thinks great singing is all about mimicking Stevie Wonder for every single song. He does not interpret songs in a convincing way because he lacks any sort of grown-up perspective. 

Brooke wore her heart on her sleeve right to the end and I appreciated what appeared to be true emotion, flubs and all. She'll be fine, although I don't see her being a big star after this unless she turns out to be a gifted songwriter as well. 

As for the rest, the exit order doesn't seem very interesting now. Unless David Cook starts biting off chicken heads onstage or something, he's the winner.</description>

		<description>I totally agree with your comments for once.  You are finally getting it.  David A, is terrible, as is Syesha.  Neither one can sing on key for a whole song.  We all knew Brooke's time was coming, but her voice was so much better than either of them, and she can carry a tune.  Syesha and David A, are the only 2 that can't play an instrument, and do nothing but stand there and try to sing.  David A is so creepy, that is why ALW told him to keep his eyes open.  Michael, Carly and David C. are the true talents, and are the true performers, and it is a total shame that 2 of them are gone.  David A is certainly not even in the same league as David C, and he needs to go home. Even Jason has a better voice than he does.  I would buy a record by Jason, NEVER by David A.  He is a total flake, and alot of it probably is from what that father has him doing.  This little boy act he puts on every week, is getting very old, he certainly didn't act like this before.  America needs to wake up and see what he is, and what he is doing.  If you let him snow you, then God help you in important matters.</description>

		<description>Denise, I feel that Brooke and David A. should have both been gone a long time ago.

The judges used to tear into contestants when you flubbed the words and usually the contestant was G-O-N-E that same week. David A. did it the first week and Brooke did it not once, but TWICE.

So yes, I think she was the right choice.</description>

		<description>I'm done with AI!  Carly was by far the best vocalist and because there are people out there voting for the worst idol, Jason will probably win.  I've been saying he is Vinnie Barbarino for weeks now.  He thinks he's cute by acting stupid.  David A has been trained on everything from how to look, how to sing, what movements to make.  Nothing seems natural.  In five or ten years, he will be great if he gets a mind of his own.  If he's anti gun, I'm anti David A.  Brooke is great but her ego got the best of her.  Syesha is great but for some reason, everyone hates her.  David Cook sounds like every other alternative rocker. No Carly was the best but people go off of looks or their personal "struggles" or sappy life and not on talent.</description>
