WASHINGTON -- Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Houston will meet with pervert pop icon Michael Jackson today, although the Congressional Black Caucus declined.
"You want us to meet with who? Are you nuts?" |
Jackson, who is facing child molestation charges in California, and Lee are expected to discuss his upcoming tour of Africa, where he hopes to bring attention to the AIDS epidemic. "This is a real problem and something that needs as much attention as possible," said Jackson Lee spokeswoman Dedra Drummond, who said the congresswoman is not worried that the musician's legal troubles will overshadow the issue.
Given Sheila's history, I'm sure she believes that. |
The caucus turned down the invitation to meet with Jackson because of cooties scheduling conflicts. "The meeting (with Jackson) was not at the top of our priority list," said Candice Tolliver, communications director for the caucus' chairman.
It ranked just below rearranging their sock drawer. |
The caucus instead plans to focus on budget priorities.
"I have to balance my checkbook on that day." |
Jackson's efforts in Africa include trolling for young boys the Heal the World foundation.
Oh, Mr. Jackson! Aren't you forgetting something? Like, maybe the fact you don't have a passport anymore? |
