I’ll take the first one: What church is Jesse Jackson a reverend of? No real church.
Rush is mocking him.
The Reverend Jesse Jackson, Sr. was born in Greenville, South Carolina in 1941; he was educated in the Greenville public schools, then attended the University of Illinois on a football scholarship, subsequently transferring to North Carolina A&T State University. While there, Jackson became active in the nascent civil rights movement in the South and led various protests and sit-ins at local restaurants and other businesses. Upon his graduation, he moved to Chicago to begin divinity studies at the Chicago Theological Seminary and devote his energies to the civil rights movement.Though he began characterizing himself as a Baptist minister in 1968, Jackson had never actually earned a traditional ordination. He failed out of the Chicago Theological Seminary during his first year there. Kenneth Timmerman -- author of the authoritative book Shakedown: Exposing the Real Jesse Jackson -- explains: “[There is normally] a two- to three-year process for earning that title [Reverend]. Jesse Jackson got himself ordained two months after Martin Luther King was shot. It was essentially a political ordination, a shotgun ordination. ... He did not go through this two-year process. He never submitted himself to the authority of the church. He has never had a church himself, and he has been accountable to no one.”
It would not be until the year 2000 that Jackson received his Master of Divinity degree from Chicago. By that time, his son --Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr. – was on the board of the seminary. The younger Jackson had earned his M.A. in theology from that same institution a decade earlier.
