Via the American Conservative, I'm reminded that Ronald Reagan once had much more effusive praise for Michael Jackson than anything to be found in my little stroll down memory lane. Of course, Reagan didn't know about Jackson's extracurricular activities at the time. Back then, none of us did.

So what does everyone think about Michael Jackson not being buried on his Neverland Ranch? Did he need to specify this in his will to have it done? Or is it a decision for his beneficiaries to make? I am very curious.

I am amazed to see on conservative blogs how quickly we forget that an acquittal is an acquittal. We're all so quick to remind everyone that any number of conservative politicians were acquitted of all sorts of "extracurricular" activities, ranging from the sexual to the financial, to the downright ugly (including Rush). If an acquittal is an acquittal for us, then it must be so for "them". Michael Jackson was acquitted.
