I LOVE James Taylor! He should be returned tonight for sure!!! This was a slap in the face for all his fans.

Oh, James Taylor missing another chance to sing? Guess the universe finally ran out of tissues for his endless tears!

Politicians' just can't shut up when they have a camera. I would much rather hear Baby James than politician's patting each other on the back.
