Apparently, Sen. Raymond Finney is still bitter about Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction.

Finney

I'll be the first to say that Justin Timberlake does not deserve recognition by any body - official or otherwise. But it's quite transparent that Senator and former "physician" Raymond Finney only objects to the fact that Timberlake's album has the word "sex" in it. Does Finney think his path to heaven is made clearer by standing up against the word "sex" in the public discourse? First he stood up for creationists and now he stands for Puritans. What a fine Senator we have.

Let's see,

Timberlake is a talented singer and dancer. He has sold millions of records, and what I have read about, donates money, has not had any major scandels other than the wardrobe malfunction.

If a Drug user like Elvis can get a recognition, why not Timberlake??

Hey now, Elvis only took those drugs to keep them out of the hands of innocent children. Let's not speak ill of deceased (?) legends.

Thank you very much (deep voice, snarling lip)...

While at Graceland with a very skeptical New Yorker in tow, I was informed by a woman that Elvis wasn't a drug abuser. Said New Yorker said, "Lady, he died with a feces impacted lower intestine from pain killer abuse. That's in the autopsy. He was a drug abuser." She looked at him and said, "No. It can't be drug abuse. He had prescriptions for those drugs."

Could be

"If a Drug user like Elvis can get a recognition, why not Timberlake??"

Could be because Timberlake looks and sounds like a bitch. Whereas Elvis looked and sounded like a man.

And if you think Timberboy doesn't do drugs I have a bridge I'd like to sell you.

Give Justin what he deserves!!

First of all Justin Timberlake is the most talented singer, dancer, and actor. He has sold millions of records with *NSYNC and has sold millions of them by himself. Justin was raised by great parents including his mother Lynn. He does plenty of charity work for example, every year Justin and *NSYNC do a charity basketball game called Challenge for the Children. This program offers financial support to children’s programs and charities throughout the country.
The only scandal he was involved in was the "wardrobe malfunction" which happened because it was a accident.
So the seantor is discriminating him because he used the word "sex" in his cd title?? Its no different then any other artist who is expressing their feelings about sex. What happened to the FREEDOM OF SPEECH amendment???
