They’ll let him skate on this one...

He is the leader of the “Justice Brothers” after all...

Did he call Obama a "nappy-headed ho" or something?

I’m torn on this...

1) I love anything that embarrasses JJ
2) This smells like a contrived Sista Souljah moment.

Aw, come on guys. Jesse Jackson has not earned the title "Rev." in any way, shape, or form. He's never completed divinity school and he's never had a congregation. The same is true for Al Sharpton. He never even attended college, let alone divinity school. He was "ordained" by a DC preacher at age 10! Using the title "Rev." with these two charlatans is an insult to those who actually have earned the degree and title.

Yeah, I think you're right. JJ's going under the bus with Rev. Wright.

Yo Jessey you are going to get the Imus treatment. Have another two weeks of apologies ready.

Maybe the governor of NJ could arrange a meeting between you and Obama.

I have come to express my solidarity with Brother Barack. We must keep our eyes on the prize; Whitey's wallet.

And he will out from under the bus on Nov. 5.

I really think in the end this is a net-positive for Barrack...

I thought he was talking about the Mister not the Missus. ;-)

Where’s Sharpton?

This story stinks like rotten fish. A seasoned media whore like Jackson doesn’t “forget” there’s a mike in the room.

I will be surprised if he even mentions today’s gaffe. Usually these speeches are used to get a big audience for some other speech prepared long before.

I for one and SHOCKED that he would so casually suggest such a fate for an African American man, given the terrible, terrible history of just such a thing being done to so many during lynchings in this country. This is nothing less than a racist call for violence against an African American candidate for president.

He didn’t know it was still open. It has happened to Bush, Clinton and lots of other “pros”.
