"Troubled singer" - that's how she was long referred to in media - Amy Whinehouse finally managed to kill herself, after overdosing on a mix of booze and various drugs. People have been whining about that, and talking about what a "great artist" she was.
No, she had some talent, and she chose to trash it. That she trashed her life as well may be unfortunate, but hardly surprising. Every article referring to her described her as a "troubled singer", the poor, poor, "troubled artist".
Sorry, she was an addict, and she died like they all do.
Now, Oregon "congressman" David Wu is often described as "embattled" in media. Like the "troubled singer", he's been slowly killing himself. While there's been no indication that he uses drugs, he might be more sane if he began to use some. Left on his own, he's clearly nuts. He needs to leave the halls of Congress, and he probably needs medication.
