It's rather sad that some one like the congressman is such a disdain and distatseful man. He is right about paying homage to those her serve our country and we do. But this man is apparently unable to respect the family and friends of the late Michael Jackson and make tasteful comments. I would say keep your opinions to yourself.

finally! someone has the balls to get on film saying what many have been thinking ever since MJ croaked. This last week feels like an eternity with the MJ this and MJ that, i am so sick of the glorification of MJ, he was a total scumbag. Lets face it, he could sing and dance a little, but at the end of the day Michael Jackson was a pervert and drug abuser who gave himself a heart attack.

You cannot compare Michael Jackson to Elvis, its apples and oranges.
No one ever accused Elvis of being a petafile, Elvis did not wear womens cloths and dangle babies off a balcony either. Elvis never has plastic surgery and no one ever nick named him Whacko Elvis. MJ was a freak, and i wish the media would stop propping him up as something great when he was just a freak who could sing and dance a little.

The State never brought charges in the first one because they didn't have a strong enough case. The second one he was found not guilty which means that the Jury was willing to grant him the benefit of the doubt. Him settling out of court is not an admission or even that great of an indication of guilt. Maybe he just wanted it all to go away and he had the money to make it happen, and consider this .... Would a reasonable parent be willing to be bought off if the child was really molested? . Not me! Anyone TOUCHED on of my kids no amount of money would buy me off!
Michael also gave large sums of money to these kid's and their families to help them out....one Mom actaully lied about medical bills to get money.....this is one of the people who later claimed her son was molested.
In all likelihood he probably did not actually molest anyone. He was a child trapped in a man's body. I don't think he had the capacity to do something like this. It was probably more like two ten year olds sharing a bed. Of course its unorthodox but I would be surprised if any legit "molesting" went down.
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone Mr. Congessman...ie how clean is YOUR backyard?

Just to be fair, I went into the smoking gun and read everything about MJ molesting kids this morning. Boy, what an eye opener. Sadly enough, now there is no doubt in my mind that he DID molest these kids.
I too enjoyed his music and creativeness in my younger years but can not abide with all the Sainthood that has been bestowed upon him now. He was and always will be a pedophile.

Ugh, why do you all let the media dictate your thoughts? You'll believe anything they say, the fact is no one will ever know if he was or wasnt a pedophile so people should just stop discussing it. No one has proof to say he was or to say he wasnt. But at the end of the day there is no denying he made amazing music and thats the thing that should never be forgotten.

I am so impressed also with the courage( yeah, thats' sarcasm) it took this Congressman to "blast" a dead man. Maybe he could have voiced these very important thoughts while Jackson was alive and could verbally (or legally) defend himself. He was in the news for starting a huge comeback tour so I wonder just where this politician's balls were while MJ was alive. Hmmmmmmm. I smell a media wh@re.

on the news, as a matter of fact I doubt that many people
even knew that he had a comeback tour in the works.

@ user183. You don't know much about Elvis do you? He was also a phenomenal performer...an icon, a giant...much like MJ in that respect. He also had very public, very serious iissues with prescription drug addiction which directly led to his death (similarity?). He had a penchant for VERY young girls ...his ex wife Priscilla was 14 when he begin his pursuit of her (in what state is THAT legal?)and was quoted as saying young girls were "easier to control". There were also rumors of bisexuality. Elvis was human being with some remarkable gifts and some terrible demons....as was MJ. I loved Elvis' music and movies and his moves.....I loved MJ's music, moves and videos. They were PEOPLE....and people who couldn't live ordinary lives...they lived in fishbowls. I can't condone some of the things they did nor should anyone but at this time I give my props to them as the music giants they were. Let history never forget THAT.

Cat27 - No $hit Elvis was an awesome performer, hello columbo nice detective work, duh... i stand by my statements, Elvis and that dead loser MJ... Elvis married Pricilla, and was never taken to court for or acused of being a petafile. MJ was accused how many times? Whats your problem anyway Cat, WTF MJ was a scum bag are you debating me about that or just sounding off cause you have nothing better to do but comment on other peoples opinions. Why dont you bugger off.

@ Kittikat....14 is too young a girl for an adult man to be pursuing...it qualifies as pedophilia. I know this is a sore subject for you but that IS real.
[Report]
Mon Jul 6 2009 16:15:20 By: cat27 ( 1967)
@ User193.....You obviously missed the point and that was the very real similarities in the lives of these two men.
Yes...Elvis did marry Priscilla when she was 18....but involvement with her at 14 qualifies him as a pedophile (please note the spelling, there is no such word as petafile). Elvis was back in a time when celebs were much more protected than they are now....much less invasion into their private lives went on.
When did MJ wear women's clothes? He wore lots of flashy, sequined glittery clothes ....oh wow! Just like Elvis!
MJ was accused publically twice that I am aware of....once didn't go to court because there simply wasn't any evidence (you actually need proof you know...not JUST accusations) and the second time DID go to court but he was acquitted because there wasn't enough evidence to prove any wrongdoing. Get it?
I am not really "debating" you on anything....I simply appear to be having a battle of wits with an unarmed man(?).
Will I "bugger off"?......Naw.

No Cat, i did not miss your lame connection with Elvis and MJ... but i have lost all respect for your opinion, Anyone who sympathizes with a PEDOPHILE should burn right along with them... Its obvious that you have no capacity to see reality from fantasy. Good luck with all that, at least you can spell so you got that going for you, which is nice..

The connection isn't "lame" just because YOU don't like it. I admire and respect the work of both artists and am bright enough to realize like any human being....they were fallible. I do NOT bestow any form of idol worship on either one. I never said I sympathize with MJ who was ACCUSED of being a pedophile now did I?
And thanks for demonstrating you have the ability to learn to spell. Shows you have the ability to learn other things too (as long as you open up that lil mind of yours).

I am mad as hell and I want to make it perfectly clear. I do not usually respond to stupidity. However, Peter King, a Representitive of NY, has made me so angry I could spit NAILS. How dare this X@@##! Hole make such incensitive comments about Michael Jackson. As a 54 year old male who is currently writing my own book on being a child molested, Raped, and abused. Rep. Jerry King has no clue about child molesters. If the entire Country could not find him guilty of a single charge in any case against him. Then, he is INNOCENT! Why would this self center idiot have the ball's to call the greatest American Icon such vulgar words and terms before he is even laid to rest such things. This man should be impeached...ridiculed, and sent into hiding for the rest of his days. To wallow in his own disgraced ignorance. Michael only LOVED children and never did anyone harm. I am disgusted with people who make assumptions without ryme or reason. If you want to find a pervert? Look to your next door neighbor, or, your friend's down the street. Those are the ones who do harm to children. I know, I lived it. I am so angry with Peter King...who will never be a KING LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON. Everyone! Stand up, rise to the occasion and tell this Rep. of the US how outraged you are. Put him in his place. And out of office. The Bastard. We have lost a great loving soul. He will be missed by MILLIONS and his music will live on for generations. I love you Michael Jackson. Randy

I find it amusing how some washed - up, middle - aged pop star suddenly takes a dirt nap, and the world goes into a tail spin with people on both sides ready to start World War III. Yes, Michael was talented and well - received by his fans, but don't most people here consider this just a tad on the verge of fanaticism? It's sad that he died and my condolences go to his family and friends, but he was no more or no less to me except a person who died and was talented. He didn't come to my home and break bread with me, he didn't help me with a jump when my car died in Baltimore.

^ There are things worth being passionate about my friend and hatsoff2us is obviously a person who has met one on these boards....and I agree. For this Congressman...the poltical leader to say such a thing at this time is beyond inappropriate. MJ wasn't a perfect human...there is, after all, no such creature. He was however a son, a brother, a friend and a FATHER to 3 young kids who DO not need to hear this trash about their loved one right now.
To those who wish to fling insults and judgements I say....Only God can judge him now.
And to anyone who wants to think MJ wasn't a legend....this board itself bears witness to the absurdity of that logic!
Gee....I guess I'm a little passionate about this too! lol.
