Wow, I’m surprised Rolex would make something that ugly. I guess due to demand, they’ve had to come up with a ‘Pimp’ line.

Mental illness thrown in to place him as a victim in all of this. Nice, he’ll walk because of his color and friends in high places.

Why not make him pay back the money X 10 and put it towards the deficit. I am so sick of people not worrying about the deficit. There are SO MANY ways to pay down the debt but nobody wants to touch it. We should ask China for debt forgiveness...lol.

My slightly-accessorized (Black Onyx & Jubilee Bracelet) 1978 GMT Master looks downright drab compared to that hideous piece.

Exactly. Jail time will be equal to time served at the Mayo Clinic.

It screams “abortion”. It’s likely her payoff for killing their baby.

Yeah, the misappropriation of funds thing was probably just a bookkeeping error, another big “mess”, like Operation PUSH’s perennial accounting problems.
And his bipolar/mental illness problems are just because he carries Sr.’s genes. Having said that I am sure he’ll serve LOTS of jail time.....hahahhahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

They were called the Civil and Voting Rights Acts. Throw in LBJ's great society and it was a real trifecta for life's losers.

Jesse, SR. became fabulously wealthy extorting money from corporations by threatening to demand a boycott from the slaves on his plantations. That is how the family obtained their beer distributorship in Chicago among other profitable operations. Now that is a fine combination—a reverend owns a beer distributorship.

JR. has somewhat cleaned up the methodology by just stealing campaign funds to finance his lavish lifestyle. Also, we are not aware of any bastard children sired by JR. You people need to cut JR. a little slack. He is trying to improve the family image.

Definitely a bad mark on the vaunted Rolex name.
