Republican Congressman Peter King is being criticized for stepping out of line for comments he made about Michael Jackson on youtube. The politician is furious that the King of Pop is getting media attention.
King recorded a youtube video rant accusing the singer of being a "pervert and a pedophile" despite the fact that the singer was cleared of all charges during a criminal trial.
Michael Jackson fans are mobilizing and raising money to fight against the politician.
Talk show host Bill O'Reilly decided to drink some of the Peter King haterade and get in on the anti-Michael Jackson rants to complain about how the media is remembering the pop star. O'Reilly even goes on to say that he doesn't know why African-Americans are relating to Michael because he wasn't Black anymore because of his rumored extensive plastic surgery.
Last night Bill O'Reilly voiced astonishment at a Pew study showing black Americans to be much more engaged in the coverage of Michael Jackson's death "even though Michael Jackson has white children -- and he chose to have white children -- and the face deal, don't even want to get into."
O'Reilly returned to the issue of Jackson and race tonight during a vigorous debate with Columbia University professor Dr. Marc Lamont Hill. O'Reilly criticized Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson Jr. and others for turning this into a "racial deal," saying there is no racial component and that it's foolish for black Americans to exult Jackson as a black icon when he "bleached his face" and had white children: "You don't become an African-American icon when you do something like that."

Look just because Michael Jackson had his own issues with loving the image he saw in the mirror doesn't mean that the world didn't love him. The talented little Black boy who danced and sang his way into everyone's hearts at the Apollo was the same man-child who died. The world saw the purity of Michael Jackson's heart. We will all remember Michael Jackson at his most beautiful. No one can dictate to the African-American community who can be deemed a pop icon, child prodigy or a political leader. The King of Pop Michael Jackson was all of these things and more. Rest in Peace Michael.
