NEVERLAND RANCH (AP) – Michael Jackson announced today that he will auction off the 1964 Beatles’ hit “Baby’s in Black” and donate the proceeds to the Obama campaign.
Jackson explained, “Obama really makes me tingle inside like no other adult has done before.” Upon hearing the announcement, the Reverend Jesse Jackson (no relation) offered the pop legend an extra testicle in appreciation of the singer’s gesture. Reverend Jackson’s offer immediately drew sharp criticism from the Obama camp, which accused the Reverend of “flip-flopping” his stance on testicles.

The Rev. Jackson offered who’s testicle? I can understand the need, what with Michael grabbing at himself all the time.

Wow - this is surprising.
I thought Jacko was still hanging out in the UAE where they don’t prosecute peophile cases if one is rich enough.
Ah, remember the good ole days when Michael was black?

OK for those who don’t get the inner-joke (I didn’t either at first), look up the song. You’ll find out that it was on the album “Beatles for Sale”.
Augusto- Yeah, now he looks like a bad Michael Jackson, alien, store window mannequin.
BTW- The August contest topic is waiting and Mark has set the bar rather high.
