He was a pretty funny guy.

Obama fundraisers not withstanding.

RIP

Can't believe he died. They said he was getting better.

 

[shivkala]

Wow, just wow. Rest in peace Bernie.

Can't believe he died. They said he was getting better.

My thoughts exactly. This is quite a surprise.

RIP, Bernie Mac.

I heard he wasn't doing well but I never expected this. That's really a shame.

I was shocked when I read this on Yahoo. Very sad.

RIP.

Though, you've got to love the laziness (or is it just plain ADD?) over at CNN.com...

"AMERICA!"

I loved his show. Very sad. I've also lost complete interest in Superman Returns III.

 

[The Nth Doctor]

Wow, I had no idea he was even ill. This comes as a huge surprise. I also had no idea he was 50.

Rest in peace, Bernie.

RIP, Bernie Mac. 50 is too young.

Didn't he have a chronic autoimmune disorder as well? Pneumonia is very dangerous if you have an autoimmune disorder. RIP, Mr. Mac. I hope you enjoyed life to the fullest. You were called home too soon.

Say hello to the original rat pack, I'm sure they will have a seat at the table for you and want to talk.

According to CNN.com, he had sarcoidosis, although his publicist has said the pneumonia had nothing to do with it.

 

[Out Of My Vulcan Mind]

I hadn't heard he was ill, so this comes as a real shock. Rest in peace, Bernie Mac.

 

[Trippy]

Wow...what a shock! 50 is way too young

I think it saddens me just a bit more when we lose someone who made it their career to make others laugh and smile.

RIP Bernie

RIP Bernie Mac,

I always enjoyed his roles in various movies I saw. Even though he was a minor character in Transformers and the Ocean's movies, among others, he was great every time he was on camera...
