Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee promised fans she'd get a resolution passed in Congress honoring Michael Jackson -- but Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi just 86'd the proposal.
In a news conference moments ago on Capitol Hill, Pelosi said that while Jackson was "a great performer," a resolution "will open up two contrary views that are not necessary at this time to be expressed."
Somewhere Rep. Pete King is doing a righteous fist pump.
1. Priceless!

6. Thank God. If the House had passed a resolution supporting Michael Jackson and child rape, it would have been a disgrace.

8. Whatever, some of our past presidents have been involved in the biggest scandals ever and we can't give Michael Jackson this resolution? WHATEVER NANCY!

9. They say a stopped clock is right twice a day. Nancy finally got one right. There's too much going on for the congress to worry about "honoring" Michael Jackson.

10. "After the sudden death of Michael Jackson Evan Chandler tells the truth.
In 1993, Chandler told a psychiatrist and police that he and Jackson had engaged in sexual acts that included oral sex, the boy gave detailed description of Jackson’s genitals. The case was settled out of court for a reported $22 million, but the strain led Jackson to begin taking painkillers. Eventually he became addicted.
Now maybe for the remorse of his death Chandler decides to tell us the truth. ” I never meant to lie and destroy Michael Jackson but my father made me to tell only lies. Now i can’t tell Michael how much i’m sorry and if he will forgive me ”.Evan Chandler was tape-recorded saying amongst other things, “If I go through with this, I win big-time. There’s no way I lose. I will get everything I want and they will be destroyed forever…"
