(Video) On Fox Business channel, Jesse Jackson discusses his call for a nationwide boycott of BP gas stations. Jackson called the oil spill Barack Obamas responsibility, but he said, Its not his fault. At around 2:00 into the video Jackson made a bizarre statement, saying, Some will have mercy on BP, but theyre bigots.

    With JJ calling for a boycott now, if there were a BP anywhere near me, I’d sure as heel go there now.

    Jackson is a moron. Boycotting BP hurts cashiers more than anyone. Besides BP gas goes to more than just BP stations.

    Apparently Jesse the race hustler thinks wells are racist.
Regulatory malfeasance ... that’s what caused the disaster. And Obama incompetence, not racism.

    since we are now post racial, this type of behavior shouldn’t exist... yet it does and is only getting worse.
therefore, we should just call it like it is... jackson is a black racist that uses racism to benefit himself emotionally and financially. his type of rhetoric should not be allowed on the national stage unless we want to continue being racist.
