Hey folks.
Last night, Wednesday November 10th, the Rev. Jackson was a guest of the Trinity College Dublin Historical society, where he was to deliver a lecture on the US political Climate. I took the liberty of taking down a few quotes. Would he get away with the likes of these in the US??
"Defeating George Bush's brand of International racism is the challenge of our age"
"We in the US cannot beat Bush by ourselves, - we need the people of the world to send our government a message. This is as important as the fight against Apartheid in South Africa and America"
(in response to a "Why did Bush win" question) :
"88% of Bush's votes came from Whites. But 100% of his votes came from Stupid people. There's a reason you Europeans think Republicans are stupid, - it's because in the main, they are"
"Yassir Arafat has been a great force for peace in the world"
"If you Imagine how Americans view Osama Bin Laden, then you can imagine how Iraqis' view Bush. Why do we call the home team the insurgents, and the away team the home team? This is an illegal war, and the US is ON THE WRONG SIDE"
That is a mere selection. Needless to say, each and every vile piece of nonesense was greeted with wild applause by a crowd of viscious, angry Irish Lefties. God it was awful. I'm glad to have the opportunity to pass this stuff on to you, - because I just think you need to know that Ann Coulter is right, - Liberals really DO hate America. I didn't believe it until last night.
Are you Irish? Is your home country under seige by idiot liberals too?
Thanks for your post. i have always wanted to visit Ireland- it looks so beautiful. I hope this infection does not scar it. Look for someone with a bold proud conservative voice (like and Irish Rush Limbaugh) and you will start to head off those idito lefties.
AND... when confrointed by a lefty- ask them to EXPLAIN their views (with examples) and that usually has a surprising effect- they can't.
Where's St. Patrick to drive the snakes out of Ireland when you need him?
Well, I can imagine Bill O'Reilly might take him to task. But, considering BO'R has barely if any more credibility than the uh-Rhhhhhheverend Jacks'nnnnnnn, ...
"Can he stay in Ireland?"
NO! Take him back, please! I believe he's in Belfast today meeting the leadership of Sinn Fein/IRA.
I have never witnessed so much hatred in all of my life as I felt emanating from this man, and his crowd, last night. I was stuck in the middle of the crowd and every time he said something outrageosly racist and bigoted, the crowd would erupt in a huge cheer.
And these people think of themselves as "enlightened liberals"
Ugh.
Rev Jesse Jackson To Speak at the Hist The civil rights campaigner and politician, Rev Jesse Jackson will be visiting the College Historical Society on Wednesday night for a lecture and question and answer session. The founder of the Rainbow/PUSH coalition and the first black person to make a serious attempt for the US Presidency, Rev Jackson is a living legend. Fresh from his exertions on the Kerry campaign to get out the vote, we will be hearing his views and opinions on the US election, the Civil Rights cause, Martin Luther King and on how much has changed for minorities in the US.
Based on the post, it seems this person attended the speech and wrote down a few quotes from it.
Depending on the audience, which is always carefully coordinated, I would say yes he would.
If thats the case, I say "Lets Roll!"
You mean there's a charge for that?
Does anyone know where JJ gets his money? I don't think he has ever held a REAL job. I bet if we follow the money trail we will see that he is subsidized by organizations that get their money from sources and donors who have no idea they are paying for JJ to slander our country. I'm so tired of these sleezeballs who have been given air time and credibility by the media (FOX included). If I see Al Sharpton promoting his reality show one more time, I think I'll hurl.
Did he mention if he was going to be attending the funeral of Arafat?
You'd think he'd rhyme more for an Irish audience. A lot of great poets came from Ireland.
As much as I think Ireland is a cruel joke, I think Jesse Jackson being that close to Scotland is a BAD thing.
Send him to France and have England as a buffer zone.
Without a source, this is completely meaningless.
Apparently the man's dignity and soul.
Nothing racist about that statement.
He is THE SOURCE. He was there and transcribed what was said.
Or is it only true if its in the NY Times?
