The TN Republican controlled House approved a resolution honoring Michael Jackson yesterday. They should be so proud! Guess they all conveniently have forgotten Jackson’s notorious penchant for young boys and feeding them liquor in soda cans.

HJR773 – A Resolution to honor the memory of Michael Jackson, the undisputed “King of Pop”

Read through the resolution and you won’t see anything about his sexual predator activities with young boys. Nor any of his court cases where Jackson paid off the victims. History has been erased. How nice.

From Tom Humphrey’s blog:

The 51 votes gave the resolution just one vote more than the 50-vote minimum needed for House passage. The resolution now goes to the Senate.
