King: MJ Coverage an 'Orgy of Glorification'

The Congressman who railed Michael Jackson by calling him a "pedophile" and "child molester" this weekend isn't done yet -- Rep. Peter King has ammo for days.

"Yes, he did violate young boys. He did put them in terribly inappropriate positions. And that's a terrible signal to be sending out to society," the NY Congressman told CBS 2 today, among other gems.

King swears he won't speak out against MJ tomorrow -- out of respect for his memorial.

61. Okay this is quite enough, first of all I am sick of these videos being posted. This guy is just looking for some attention he needs to shut his mouth stop saying stuff about MJ and stop saying mean stuff on camera! What is the point in all this so he can look like a prick bashing someone who tragically passed away. This guy is beyond disgraceful as if he was there at the trial, does this guy do his research look into his facts without opening his disgusting mouth! MJ was way too good for this world and for people like this disgraceful asshole, its people like him that give this country a bad name, people like him that used to bash MJ and made his life miserable, people like him that are so insecure and miserable in their own lifes they like to spread lies and gossip about things that are completely untrue. He loved kids he would never hurt anyone and kids loved him he was a kid at heart, it seems to me that this guy may be obsessed with talking about inappropriate things with kids hmm maybe someone ought to look into that guy for inappropriate behavior if hes pointing the finger and wont stop talking about it! Those people that accused him just wanted money and their name in the paper, the only people that believe he actually committed those crimes are people with half a brain who are very judgemental and negative and open their mouth without talking!

62. OK YOU NEED TO SHUT UP NOW. Really looking for 15 min of fame & attention. Out of respect tomorrow? You already downplayed his whole existence, you worthless scum. If you have better things to do, why are you still commenting on MJ? NEWSFLASH, you're contributing to news about him "instead of worrying about the troops"

63. And so this bitch is without skeletons in his closet? Who is he to judge? Was he there to witness first hand all this "alleged" accusations he's spouting against MJ? I can't wait when this pig's scandalous escapades surface.

64. How about respecting the dead all the time? This guy is so unprofessional. I can't believe he is STILL going on about this. If you don't want to keep hearing about it, then stop talking about it or you're just going to create more uproar! You don't have to post videos complaining. Just stop. I don't understand why he has to keep being so public about this crap.

Such disrespect. This guy needs to be taught a lesson.

Obviously everything unfolding in the MJ case is big news - and it will be until everything is put to rest. So save your breath and stop complaining. If you're sick of everything that you're seeing and hearing about MJ then don't watch. It will be on for a long time and people aren't just going to stop broadcasting this news and updating it just because a few people "don't want to hear it anymore". Grow up, you can't have everything your way!

65. As a Republican & Army wife, I am disgusted by this ignorant jerk, & I'm ashamed to have him in my political party. Yes, I usually get annoyed when people dwell on a celebrity's death, especially when I spent over 2 yrs worrying about my own husband's safety in Iraq, but that does not give him the right to spew out RUMORS about someone that has passed. If he was a proven child molester then I could understand, but these cases against him were ridiculous & the people were money hungry. Since his death, I have watched numerous videos of him & read so many stories & interviews by people. I am now even more convinced that Michael Jackson DID NOT do those horrible things he was accused of. He's just different & people don't understand him. To me, he IS a hero. Not only because of his incredible talent, but also because of the love he has for people. He truly just wanted to be a kid again, & wanted other kids to have the childhood he never had. It's bad enough that his life was filled with so much heartache & judgment...Now people won't even let him rest in peace after his passing. He did have his issues, & sometimes I think had the mind of a child, but it was because he was coping with the stress & abuse of his childhood, & then dealing with CONSTANT media, paps, accusations, etc. It's unimaginable to me. People think Britney has it bad? Even though he had problems, & may not have been very close to God, I hope & pray that Michael Jackson is with our Heavenly Father.

66. This guy is a Jerk. I hope the Jackson family sues his a**. MJ was aquitted from all charges if this guy knew something why didn't he speak up then. Out of respect of MJ family he needs to shut up.

67. Seriously, this guy is an IDIOT. Regardless of what anybody thinks about MJ, THIS guy is just cruising for a lawsuit against him. He should be careful. He's a public figure throwing out some harsh stones.

68. MJ was a lot of things, and even there there is no "proof" of him being a pedophile, what he DID do was terribly inappropriate. I'm sorry, but sleeping in the same bed with little boys on a regular basis, particularly when he's hot the parent is extremely inappropriate and just plain weird. I also think that he bought himself out of a prosecution. The only reason charges didn't go through was because he paid the kids to keep mum and they did. Without the testimony of the kids, there's simply no evidence. How sad that the public was robbed of the opportunity to either prove or disprove the charges. Why do you think that was that MJ paid millions of dollars to the little boys and their families if he was innocent? I know that if it was me, I would certainly choose to have myself vindicated and have my name cleared for once and for all. If MJ did violate these children, then it appears that the molestation of little boys does have a price and that they can be bought and paid for, even in America. How sad.

69. 14. King is just BEGGING for a slander and defamation lawsuit.

**********************

Oooh - I bet he's pretty scared of a dead drug addict. Kudos to the dude for saying what the majority of Americans think. Yeah - there is fringe kook that drink the kool-aid - but in the real world - he's nothing to idolize. You devotees amaze me. You claim he was acquitted - well so was OJ. Justice isn't perfect.

And I hope the children that he paid off come out with their stories. Might put a damper on his image. Argh! He was gross.

70. Michael has been buried !! The Family will make a statement in about an hour..

71. I guess King was there and saw it all. How nice of him to admit he has no trust in the justice system since Michael was not found guilty. I guess he thinks the court was wrong and doesn't give a damn about a person being innocent until proven guilty. Maybe a person is guilty when King says so. New rule I guess.

72. Regardless of what he may think - he was ACQUITTED. So this Senator takes issue with our system of justice. I guess there was reasonable doubt. Now if Mr. King has some proof otherwise, he should bring that forward instead of hurling remarks with no basis. I'd be interested to know why he is so sure when a jury of his piers didn't seem to agree after hearing testimony.

73. MICHAEL JACKSON WAS A RACIST TOWARDS HIS OWN PEOPLE. That is why he wanted to be white and only wanted white kids.

74. Michael gave $300 million dollars to different charities. How much has this loser given??? He is a JERK and an embarrassment. LOOK AT THE MAN IN THE MIRROR.

75. This guy is just jealous of Michael. Hes a low life trying to get attention.....I'd hate to be him walking down the streets of New York and getting all those dirty looks...with all Michael Jackson fans out there still mourning his death.....
