#Bobby Brown - Ejected from Whitney Houston Funeral

I told you that Bobby Brown is somehat of a moron, (well that's just my opinion). Why did he have to bring a half a dozen of un-invited guest to Whitney Houston's funeral? One has to wonder if it was just a planned event to cause noise? Come on folks there was a reason why Whitney divorced him. But then again, I guess the church was not fukll of people that believe in forgiveness?

Get this, according to New Jersey.com — Bobby Brown, the ex-husband of Whitney Houston, left the New Hope Baptist Church just minutes before the funeral was to begin. Reports are Bobby Brown sat in the front as a family member, but Whitney Houston's family was having none of that.

According to New Jersey.com and a person familiar with the situation, Brown brought an entourage of nine people with him to the Newark church and wanted them to sit with them in the family section.

"They were asked to leave," the person said, referring to the entourage. Brown was not asked to leave, but "he left with the other people," according to the person, who was not at liberty to discuss the situation publicly.

Brown appeared visibly upset as he left the church and got into a black Cadillac SUV. The Rev. Al Sharpton tweeted that he spoke with the singer outside the funeral service:

I am at Whitney's funeral. I spoke with Bobby Brown trying to calm him down and not distract from the services. Today is about Whitney!

Hello and welcome to my Blog

As you can see, I'm a former moderate-progressive Democrat, now a moderate-progressive registered Independent voter, blogger and blogtalk radio host.

I have been recognized both nationally and internationally as an African American social and political blogger who talks about politics in laymens terms.

Yes, I'm a African American Baby Boomer who gives common sense independent African American political opinion to issues important to the African American communities. I call it the way I see it. Many times it may not be a popular opinion, and it probably won't be what negro civil rights groups, and so-called black leaders want to hear. Candidly I could give a royal crap if they agree or disagree.

I have had the opportunity of serving as a credentialed blogger at the 2008 Democratic National Convention. I continue to support and voted for President Barack Obama, although I have been a critic of "some" of his political appointments and policies. I appreciate you reading my blog.

What Media Outlet's Say About This Blog

Rewind 2008 Democratic National Convention Blogger LN Rock of African American Pundit.com predicts the blogosphere will have a "significant" role in deciding the election in November. "It tells the story when you have 120 bloggers coming to the convention," he says. "Millions of people listen, watch and hear what the bloggers say. There is a disenchantment with the traditional media." He spares the BBC his criticism, saying we are "creative media." Cheers, LN.
