And all you black folks run back to Louisiana so you can vote for Ol' Massa Blanco. The woman who said you didn't need food and water.

[MEG33]

LOL!

Jackson also criticized the role given to former presidents George Bush senior and Bill Clinton as coordinators for a fund raising effort following the Katrina tragedy. “Why wasn’t I asked to lead this relief effort?”

Because we don't want all the money to go to whoever your girlfriend is at the moment, Jesse.

[CommieCutter]

Well if they mayor had been there the people would've had the Black leader they elected.

[Hi Heels]

Is it completely my imagination or did all the liberals take a retardo pill the day before the hurricane???

[Mr. Mojo]

The Chief Looter is going to milk this for all it's worth.

[frankjr]

Everyone knows Katrina was white...

"Jackson said 120,000 people in New Orleans make less than $8,000 a year. “This is less than I charge for a single speech,” Jackson pointed out"

Jesse, you shouldn't be paid a dime for your race baiting.
I suspct it's the Harvards and Bezerkleys of the world that pay your bill, and not the people you purport to represent.

Reverend Jesse Jackson asserted that the devastation inflicted on poor blacks by Hurricane Katrina proves America is a racist society.

Grrrrrrr! He is not a Reverend!

[hadaclueonce]

If I was Mr Jackson, I would be careful. The same creator that could change the course of a hurrican, also controls lightning bolts.

[Unam Sanctam]

This guy is an evil demagogue. He doesn't care about healing racial tensions. He wants to foment them!

[mwyounce]

You know, it's telling that I can't recognize what's a parody and what's a real article anymore....

[Chi-townChief]

Amazingly close to the real thing!!!

[Soul Seeker]

Does Trent Lott live in a black neighborhood? Guess we learn new things everyday.

Jesse is a race baiter. But he's also a racist. And you, sir, are NO Reverend of the Lord's.

[SkiPole18]

God forbid any whites were hurt in Hurricane Katrina along with blacks. Its not like its a 100% black community.

[MozarkDawg]

I thought I'd seen/heard everything, but good grief, this whining rant has to take the cake.

Jackson also criticized the role given to former presidents George Bush senior and Bill Clinton as coordinators for a fund raising effort following the Katrina tragedy. “Why wasn’t I asked to lead this relief effort?” Jackson demanded to know. “As a Black man, I can feel their pain just as well, if not better than Bill Clinton. And my fees are quite reasonable.”

Perhaps because you would actually CHARGE A FEE to go out and request aid, assistance for hurricane victims??

[Texas Termite]

Oh good grief!!! This guy doesn't even deserve our time or effort.

He and Oprah (in MY opinion) do more to stir up racial trouble that Al Sharpton!!

Nana

“Why wasn’t I asked to lead this relief effort?” Jackson demanded

Because you're a shake-down artist, Jesse. Had you raised $2 billion in donations, you would have skimmed about $250 million off the top.

[zeaal]

I have been working evacuee relief in my community. We have over 100 families that have taken up lodging in local hotels/suites. While working in the community to encourage donations, lodging, home sharing, etc. I have not heard a single person even ask if those in our community were people of color. This is an American issue not a color issue. Jesse, Jesse, Jesse ... STOP making everything racist.

[My2Cents]

Well, Katrina has certainly proven some in the US to be racist...[glaring at Jesse Jackson]
