The Huffington Post | Full News Feed — A New York congressman says in a YouTube video that Michael Jackson was a "pervert" a "child molester" and a "pedophile." Rep.

Rep. King: M.J. a 'pervert,' 'low-life,' 'pedophile.'
News — Rep. King: M.J. a 'pervert,' 'low-life,' 'pedophile.' Rep. Pete King (R-N.Y.) is not thrilled by the non-stop coverage of Michael Jackson's death, and he's taken to YouTube to share his thoughts. After visiting what appears to be an American Legion hall in his district, King decided to say a few choice words about the late King of Pop, contrasting the cover of his death to the minimal coverage of U.S. soldiers dying overseas. For the last, I don't know how long now, this low life, Michael Jackson his name, his face, his picture is all over the newspapers, television, radio. All we hear about is Michael Jackson. Let's knock out the psychobabble, this guy was a pervert, he was a ...

Rep. Pete King (R-NY): "Let's Knock Out The Psychobabble," Michael Jackson Was A Pedophile
TPM Election Central — Rep. Pete King (R-NY), a potential Senate candidate in 2010 against either incumbent Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand or Rep. Carolyn Maloney -- it depends on who wins that primary -- has taken to YouTube to send a strong message about media coverage of Michael Jackson, as opposed to coverage of real heroes like our servicemen and women, teachers in rough neighborhoods, policemen, firefighters, doctors and nurses, etc.: "Let's knock out the psychobabble, this guy was a pervert, he was a child molester, he was a pedophile, and to be giving this much coverage to him day in and day out, what does it say about ...

NY Congressman: Michael Jackson Was a Pervert
Drudge Retort — "[T]his low-life Michael Jackson, his name, his face, and picture is all over the newspapers, television, radio. ... Let's knock out the psychobabble. This guy was a pervert, he was a child molester, he was a pedophile and to be giving this much coverage to him, day in and day out, what does it say about us as our country?" -- Rep. Congressman Peter King (R.-New York)

Is Rep. Peter King just not very bright, or is he demagoguing the death of the "pervert" Michael Jackson?
DownWithTyranny! — "Let's knock out the psychobabble. This guy was a pervert, he was a child molester, he was a pedophile, and to be giving this much coverage to him, day in and day out, what does it say about us as a country? I just think we're too politically correct. No one wants to stand up and say, 'We don't need Michael Jackson.' You know, he died, he had some talent, but fine. There are people dying every day, there's men and women dying, say, in Afghanistan. Let's give them the credit they deserve." ...

Thank you Peter King
Fausta's Blog — Via Sister Toldjah, Newsday reported, “Let’s knock out the psychobabble,” King said in the video, which was posted by his campaign. “He was a pervert, a child molester; he was a pedophile. And to be giving this much coverage to him, day in and day out, what does it say about us as a country? I just think we’re too politically correct.” King is exactly right.

Let’s mourn the real American heroes
Michelle Malkin — My column below memorializes some true American heroes whose funerals won’t get wall-to-wall cable coverage. But first I wanted to share an e-mail from reader Noelle, who wrote me yesterday: We spent a nailbiting Sunday wondering if one of the men killed at [Combat Outpost] Zerok in Afghanistan on July 4th was our son. God bless the Casillas and Fairbairn families in this hour of grief over futures that now will never come to pass. The privates who died were mortarmen, the guys who go outside and return fire. I’m sorry about Michael Jackson’s totally wasted life, but he’s not worth the national crying and hair pulling that will never be done for the two young mortarmen. My son is a ...
