American Idol 7: Who is David Archuleta? - Page 3

"You know, Oscar, I think everyone would agree that you can say whatever you want... but honestly, the mormon bashing just makes you seem like a lowlife, that's all."

That's a pretty contradictory statement, no? I'm sorry if my anti-polygamy comments somehow offended you. That's your opinion, and I'm OK with it.

The backlash against Oscar's blatant discrimination has been much more interesting than his article. Do we really think he's a Nazi at heart ("Sieg heil")?
Come on, Oscar. Can't you find more interesting accusations against this kid. Maybe he's wearing a wig or, better yet, he's lip-syncing to the voice of a much older, more experienced singer. Be creative. Your yellow journalism is a bit amateurish. You can do better.

Hmmm, that is a very strange response. All I said was that unfortunately some of the things you say make you sound like a lowlife--nevertheless, you are free to say them. There is nothing contradictory about that.

As for polygamy, you'd be hard-pressed to find stauncher anti-polygamists than mormons. Splinter groups like the FLDS aren't mormons (and do not even call themselves such).

At any rate, you actually haven't offended me at all... you're just so nonsensical that I have a hard time keeping my mouth shut.

OK, one last comment then I'm done.

My "blatant discrimination?" Who am I discriminating against? I've said over and over again how good a singer David is and that he seems like a nice guy. OK, that's it for me on this thread. Note to self - never mention religion in an article ever again.

I am a mormon... and who give a flying crap if he is or isn't. I sure don't. Being a certain religion does not make you in anyway, shape or form give you more of less talent than someone else. That's what this competition is about, TALENT. Who cares if the mormon, muslim, scientologist or an atheist. It shouldn't matter. And on that note, David is a great singer. But Syesha is my pick. <3

Oh and polygamy... ROFL, c'mon guys... it's ILLEGAL. Why would a church endorse that? ROFL, don't believe everything you see on tv.

People of the world David is a singing contest. Can we just respect who he is!!!!!!!!

Sorry, It is DAVID IN A SINGING COMPETITION NOT DAVID IS A SINGING COMPETITION!!!

I would probably buy a CD from David Archuleta. I've been wanting a Clay Aiken or Anthony Fedorov like guy to win Idol. But I don't think David is nearly as good as they are.

I don't see David winniing though because Carly Smithson is going to win it all.

For me, David Archuleta is already the winner. So, even if he will not be the holder of the crown (to be sincere, I think he will be), he give us the most memorable performance of this season.
Chris D. was not the winner, Eliot Yamin, Clay Aiken, Melinda, Blake..........
and the list is very long.For me they are winners.
And, by the way I LOVE DAVID!
