What are the odds that two Repubs, both named King, (Steve and Peter) would be the two dumbest ...

[11 Bravo]

mother-fuckers in Congress? The NY dunce has proclaimed an individual who has never been convicted of anything to be a pedophile. (And I don't give a flying fuck what you may think about it, as matter of LAW, he was innocent, and an individual respnsible for actually passing laws should know that.) The Iowa asshole is the only member of the House of Representatives to vote against a resolution recognizing the (well-established and irrefutable) fact that slave labor contributed to the construction of the U. S. Capitol.
Again, what are the odds?

2. Are they cousins?

That branch might be worth pruning.

3. self hating racists? Growing up with the same last name as MLK must have warped them

and just as a matter of fact.....


as a matter of LAW he was found not guilty beyond a reasonable doubt (not innocent)

4. Both Republicans? About 3 to 5.

:rofl:

6. It's a sign from the Universe

that our forefathers were absolutely right in breaking away from the monarchy....................

7. Old fearful white men

that are struggling to stop the 21st and the loss of their flagrant position of power...

I was appalled and greatly offended by Peter King's statement about the excessive coverage of Michael Jackson. Peter King is devoid of any understanding about people and culture. Music is extraordinarily powerful and Michael Jackson was an extraordinary medium offering his gift.

The sadness is that Peter King and Steve King are obviously poor representatives for their constituents.

8. OK, MJ was never convicted

but that's only because we have star-struck juries, and the best justice system money can buy.

Regardless of whether or not Peter King is an asshole (I happen to think he is) he's right about this particular "artist". MJ's batshit crazy, even if he's not a 'convicted' pedophile.

9. So every jury in the LA area that happens to rule in favor of a famous person is star struck?

Bullshit!

11. Most of them, I'd say

I still remember that woman who wore the Star Trek outfit to the court to serve on a jury of a famous person. Many people gravitate to that place to associate with fame.

10. it would be a very sad world indeed if we wrote off

all the 'crazy' characters in this world. I happen to think Michael Jackson was off the charts when it came to being different. Most of my favorite people are and most of them are loving, caring, generous and interesting.

What makes you think Peter King is 'right' about this particular artist? We don't know first hand if any child was ever damaged in any way because of him. The best proof that Rep King can come up with is that young children slept in the same bed with Michael Jackson, that is not the definition of a pedophile. I don't know the truth of Michael Jackson's life anymore than you or Rep King does. I mourn the loss of soldiers, I mourn the loss of innocent children, I mourn the loss of a great talent, I mourn the loss of people I care about. I have a pretty good feeling that no one anywhere suffered from lack of up to date news about Obama or the Coup in Hondouras because of the coverage of Michael Jackson and people were free to turn off the TV or radio if they chose to. I was out a couple of days ago listening in the car to a right wing radio station in San Diego and noted that the two men talked the entire time I was listening- about the excessive coverage of Michael Jackson and how it was just too much. For goodness sake, they were doing the same thing.

12. If it looks like a duck

walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck.

Eccentric people add spice to life, but the Neverland Ranch goes beyond quirky. I refuse to give in to the idea that pedophiles are just another misunderstood sexual minority.

13. Kind of the same as two Democrats named Nelson

They rank up there too.
