House Gives Moment of Silence to King of Pop

BREAKING: MICHAEL JACKSON IS STILL DEAD

As everyone knows, Michael Jackson died last week. Of course it's sad when anyone dies, but did we really need the 24/7 coverage?? EVERY news station, MTV, VH1, and BET were doing nonstop coverage of Michael Jackson. Ok, he was a great singer/dancer back in the day, but did everyone all of a sudden forget about the child molestation charges? Yes, he was aquited of the charges, but it's still very creepy that he slept in the same bed with little boys.

To add to all this insanity, the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES has a MOMENT OF SILENCE for Michael Jackson!! What?!?! What did Michael Jackson do in his life to warrant a moment of silence from people who we elect to represent us? What about Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, David Carradine, and most recently, Billy Mays? Why don't they get a moment of silence? Now, don't get me wrong, I don't think any of them should have gotten a moment of silence, but if you're going to have one for one person who died, have the respect to include all the celebrities who have died recently.

Here is a great blog about the moment of silence for Michael Jackson.

"It’s a disgrace that congress chooses to overlook America’s untainted icons, instead choosing to honor a train wreck like Jackson."
