Rev. Jesse Jackson confronted an angry crowd of approximately 200 Tea Party protesters outside the Capitol on Sunday evening while his son, Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-Ill.), filmed the encounter on his cell phone.
Jackson was visiting the Capitol to witness the expected passage of healthcare reform legislation, and he walked out of the building at 6:45 p.m. with his son. As he walked by a grassy knoll below the Speakers Lobby balcony, protesters were chanting anti-reform slogans and waving signs.
Jackson walked to the edge of a small stone wall and watched the crowd. Protesters recognized him moments later and, as if on cue, the whole crowd turned in unison away from the balcony and faced Jackson.
Pimp!
“Pimp” is too kind for what he is.
Boy, Jackson looks like Hell! By the way, does he realize it was Democratic Party segregationists that kept his father and his grandfather down?
Sounded like “yes we can” to me.
When comparing a Pimp to Jesse Jackson, the Pimp appears to be The POPE!
Jesse Jackson is the biggest racist.
SHHHH no one is supposed to know real history. Why that would make them....what they called Justice Thomas!
They can, of course, get attention they hadn’t counted on....
Funny how there is no video of the alledged person(s) who yelled at him. It could have happened, since there are those that can’t seem to contain themselves. Isn’t it funny how Lefties can and do attack us, but don’t appreciate being the target. I’ve been physically and verbally attacked by these so-called peace lovers. Too bad, so sad, Jesse. Truth is truth.
Wonder where the cameras were that always follow Jackson around?
I remember some idiot liberal tried to start something with me at an anti-Obama protest in my city. He pretended to be interested in my opinion, but just began baiting me...I finally threw up my hands, said, “I gave you an answer”, and walked away.
He yelled back at me, about not engaging him, but I ignored it. He was obviously just trying to get a rise—not interested at all in discussing the issue. (This particular issue was the nonstop spending!)
The crowd seems to be pro reform bill.
The video is shot by Sam Stein, chief race-monger ‘reporter’ for Huffington Post.
That the whole family participated told her that stealing wasn’t okay with anyone and not you alone. Well done!
