I don't know if he was a child molester, and neither does anyone else except the parties involved. But I do know that if my kid was molested there'd be no amount of money that would make me disappear and be quiet. IMO it was open season on Mike and a few greedy parents took advantage by making false accusations they knew he'd want to keep hush hush

Weird also, how only one kid claimed it. MJ had hundreds of kids over at his place, right? I always say give them the benefit of the doubt - I will have to give MJ the benefit on this one. Rich guy is a target for no-good people.
just wrote exactly what you said but for the record I read your after I wrote mine

My chiropractor, who is black, got it right: "Michael Jackson started out a cute little black boy and ended up a very emaciated white woman."

Add a congressman whining on television about television in general to the list of things that we don't need to be seeing any more of.

I'm sorry, but if his understanding of Jackson's impact on our culture is that he was "maybe a good singer who did some dancing" then he shouldn't even open his mouth in the first place.

That man is the most foolish politician to have ever been born. Aren't politicians supposed to be shrewd? Otherwise, they shouldn't be in politics. There's no such thing as honest politics. Yes, he has the right to think what he does, but saying those things on camera about a person, whom the world cherishes, is a very foolish thing and can't be good for his politics. I wonder what went on his mind as he was setting up the camera. Didn't he have any adviser at all?

I read some info about Pete King and found out he was involved in some scandals himself, so he is anything but perfect. He has had some marital affairs; was heavily involved and connected to the IRA, whom the U.S. and England consider terrorists; etc.

Was MJ REALLY a pedophile? I guess only he and his so-called victim would know the truth, as he was acquitted by the court. I'm not saying that he was or was not; I just like his music.

Waiting to watch Al Sharpton and others to go after King.

P.S. MJ was one of the biggest humanitarians/philanthropists in history, if some of you didn't know that.
