But don't do it on national TV in front of millions because it just makes you look like something even less than stupid.Curioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03784893681266233567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1397494141662696591.post-26349115876450397942010-11-21T18:11:24.181-05:002010-11-21T18:11:24.181-05:00I too chuckle at the thought of the Jackson blood ...I too chuckle at the thought of the Jackson blood line, the thought that two of the brothers were married to the same woman at different times and children born to both unions. Not to mention Michael's children.<br /><br />Joe Jackson isn't that wise of a man, he would truly like to believe he is responsible for his children's success. He certainly put his foot in his mouth when he stated that if "he hadn't beat the children they would have been like other children that were not disciplined by the strap." He forgot that Michael did drugs and later took his own life as a result.Chethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03883472492247470269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1397494141662696591.post-53191578126972294682010-11-20T01:50:37.640-05:002010-11-20T01:50:37.640-05:00Mr. Toddy English - Michael may not have gone to j...Mr. Toddy English - Michael may not have gone to jail but he had his mug shot and dick shot taken by the police and that's just as bad.

What gets to me is how Joe can fool himself into thinking that he created a successful and happy home life for people who he thinks are so much better than his neighbors.<br /><br /> <br />BosGuy - Really, whether Joe Jackson ever abused his children or not really isn't an issue for me. What troubles me is that he can say with a straight face that his children are more balanced and more well adjusted than others because of his actions and yet he fails to see the realities of how his children turned out and what has actually happened to them.Curioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03784893681266233567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1397494141662696591.post-29473836683097339572010-11-19T17:32:56.544-05:002010-11-19T17:32:56.544-05:00Joe Jackson sickens me.

True, none of them went to prison...But at what cost? Did he have selective memory when it came to Mike?Prince Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17887009695613050017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1397494141662696591.post-1913975720302412012010-11-19T13:39:10.787-05:002010-11-19T13:39:10.787-05:00Yeah, I obviously don't know him but he isn...Yeah, I obviously don't know him but he isn't the type of guy (or role model for that matter) I would want around my children.

Could you imagine how much longer the abuse would have gone on for otherwise?TheatreMad87https://www.blogger.com/profile/15750070810229335224noreply@blogger.com
