    Jacko’s parents shouldn’t get kids

    So Michael Jackson’s kids are going to Joe and Katherine Jackson? Aren’t they the same people who mocked their son for having a large nose, who

    hijacked his childhood and who severely “disciplined” and basically wrecked his life

    for their very own profit?

    Oprah got what she voted for

    Oprah is complaining that her employees are going to be taxed on a cruise she gave them this year, attempting to disguise a salary bonus as a “gift.” Nice try, O. I’m afraid the guy you cried for on election night needs every tax dollar he can get to pay for everything he promised. What’s the matter — can’t handle the “change”?

    More important news to focus on

    While our soldiers are being killed, wounded and maimed on two fronts, and civilians have lost their jobs in the thousands, and others have been fleeced out of their life savings by Ponzi schemes or otherwise. Newspapers, TV and magazines and other media have been focusing on the death of a drug addict and accused pedophile. It’s another example of the “A-Rod Syndrome” that has captured this nation.
