Not all congressmen feel like Rep. Peter King -- and yesterday in D.C., a group of Democratic reps showed their support for a House resolution honoring Michael Jackson.
Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, who spoke at yesterday's memorial, is pushing for a measure which would recognize Jackson as a "global humanitarian and a noted leader."
Jim McDermott (D-WA), John Lewis (D-GA) and Shelley Berkley (D-NV) are in -- with Lewis making a point to call King's comments "out of line" and "unnecessary."

With banks so unstable, where's the safest place to put your money? We buttonholed six members of Congress at Reagan National Airport in D.C. -- Reps Dennis Kucinich, Sheila Jackson-Lee, John Lewis, Jason Chaffetz, John Yarmuth, and Senator John Thune. The question: Which is safer -- Sealy or Tempur-Pedic?
