Obama Statement on Michael Jackson Death



CBS News reports that the President Obama is still deciding on whether to issue a statement regarding the death of Michael Jackson. 

The stumbling block appears to be White House speechwriter Jonathan Favreau's inability to find a euphemism for "molester."

"It's a tough one," admits Favreau, "Rahm wants me to put lipstick on this pig, but, to be honest, I feel like I'm putting lipstick on an innocent child's teddy bear -- an act Mr. Jackson would refer to as 'foreplay'."
