Chicago seems to be no longer Jesse's kind of town. From last November: Protesters turn on Jesse Jackson during rally

[jwalburg]

A ploy? By positioning leftier leftists near Kerry, it will make him seem more "centrist."

[July 4th]

Brit Hume's show had clips of Kerry's speech at Rainbow. It was pretty bad, as these sorts of speeches go. He really started to lose the crowd, and had to go off the teleprompter speech to reassure them that he 'felt their pain.' It was a really tense moment, and I think goes to show that nobody really cares for Kerry - all they care about is the anti-Bush.

Is this the ebonics name for it?

[jwalburg]

This calls for a CAPTION.

"We believe that this is some kind of payment for support and to make sure that the African American community is controlled by the privileged few," said Lance Davis, Voices for Morality."

Get thee to a nunnery Fox News and the RNC!

[Southack]

I notice that this news story didn't mention that Chicago's Mayor Daley stood Senator Kerry up at the Push conference today...

"Many people work there because we help get them jobs. Many blacks who have franchises have them because we helped get them franchises," said Jackson.

Reveruuuund Zhackson doesn't think black employees competed on merit and got jobs? Every black at GM owes Zhackson for their job?!? How incredibly arrogant!

simply like Bush more than Kerry for whatever reason.

Just couldn't have left off the for whatever reason? Just couldn't recognize the likability gap without denigrating Bush?

He said he is keeping the heat on Daimler Chrysler even as he accepts the company's cash.

No doubt, he will use this demonstration to turn the heat up even higher, so he can "accept more of the company's cash." That's what JJ does best.

I almost had to pull over when I heard the description of the speech on WBBM Newsradio 780 in the afternoon. The guy said 'judging from the yawns, cellphone usage and people leaving its going to be an uphill fight to defeat his opponent in the White House' - I couldn't believe it. It had to be bad since WBBM is usually a Dumbocrat mouthpiece.

"The black vote is not for sale. The black vote is not for sale," chanted the demonstrators.

Apparently the Democratic Party didn't get the memo yet.

"Many people work there because we help get them jobs. Many blacks who have franchises have them because we helped get them franchises," said Jackson.

And those people can't keep the franchises running because they have no experience and many are crooks just like you, Jesse. Maybe it's because they know you (that's how they got the franchise) and how you operate.

Support for reverend Jackson has diminished and decreased over the years

And nobody deserves it more!!

"The black vote is not for sale. The black vote is not for sale," chanted the demonstrators.

Of course not. Jesse believes it's his to barter.

"The black vote is not for sale. The black vote is not for sale," chanted the demonstrators.

Sure it is, were just negotiating the price now!

"The black vote is not for sale"---coulda fooled me. The Dems hae been buying them off for years with promises.

"The black vote is not for sale. The black vote is not for sale," chanted the demonstrators.

They're leaving the democrat party?
If they vote republican and get out of the failing schools, housing complexes, and off government checks, they'll no longer have to vote democrat to get their next meal. They'll escape and be free. The democrat politicians would lose their comfy jobs.

Sounds like extortion.

I read Rush's transcript and what struck me is John F*kin' got ZERO applause in what is safe Rat territory. He's going to carry IL in November but they don't seem all that excited by their own nominee!

[R. Scott]

They accuse the Reverend Jesse Jackson of selling out the black community by allowing automotive giant Daimler Chrysler help underwrite the cost of the convention. The carmaker is accused in a lawsuit of subjecting black buyers to racially discriminatory sales policies and making derogatory racial comments about African Americans.

WOW! They’re waking up in greater numbers!
“The Reverend” Jackson has long used extortion to get money from corporations. “Donate” or face a racial discrimination case. In this instance instead of the payoff going into his pocket it went into Hanoi John’s campaign chest.
