President Bush has implemented economic policies that resemble those of the Roman Empire, which forced the baby Jesus into homelessness on the night of his birth, former civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson said in a pre-Christmas rant late Thursday.
"In the last [Bush] budget, we cut housing again, and that was Jesus' dilemma. In Bethlehem, his family ended up homeless," Jackson told MSNBC's Campbell Brown.
"Rome was a wealthy country that left Jesus and Mary and Joseph, in a sense, homeless," he complained. "He was born an at-risk baby."
The GOP bashing Democrat said that while Bush's reelection campaign had been successful in "marketing the language of religious values," the Bush White House isn't practicing what it preaches.
Jackson charged that under Bush's policies, the U.S. "appears to be indifferent toward the poor as we seek tax cuts and no-bid contracts for the wealthy; as we engage in wars of choice - driving our nation into isolation."
"Today we are celebrating the wealthy and war, not the poor and peace," he contended, while urging the Bush administration to "restore the Lyndon Baines Johnson vision where we wipe out poverty - not wipe out the poor."
Jesus wouldn't have had to rely on GWB for a home. He had a home, and if we believe on Him, we have one, too.
One definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting a different result.
Jesse Jackson makes mind-bogglingly idiotic remarks like clockwork, and expects to be given credence.
Truly pathetic.
Jesse has been spouting this untruth for years. During the latter years of the Reagan administration I remember a Christmastime soundbite of JJ intoning "JEEEEEEEzusss was borrrrrrrrrrrn of a homeless fambly!" (For best effect, imagine Rush speaking this line in his Reverend Jackson voice)
WIC = your money; subsidizing sin, for the most part.
This man's hypocrisy and ignorance on spiritual matters is beyond astounding.
On the most Holy day next to Easter for Christians, we get this Disgusting garbage from a "So-called" Reverend?
and an Adulteror besides.
and a race-baiter besides.
He wants Bush to re-start the Johnson "War on Poverty"????
The Demorats, along with Jesse Jackson have been running the War on Poverty for 40 years!!!!!!
Jesse Lied and People Died.
Jesse, you have been "weighed" and found "wanting"
Merry CHRIST-mas!! ACLU!!!!
Merry CHRIST-mas!!! NAACP!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! Happy Birthday Jesus!!!!!
Jesse Jackson is Irrelevant.
Actually Mary was a devout Jew and stay at home mom....Joseph..was Jesus' step dad who was not only a skilled carpenter...but also an upright decent honest man...a dedicated step dad...and loved Jesus as his own...
Most of all Joseph was a dedicated husband who never abused or cheated on his wife...
Lets ask which one of these has abused his wife and kept a mistress and fathered children out of wedlock...George Bush or Jesse Jackson
Look at the lives and morals of the two men...The Reverand Jesse Jackson is a liar...and exploiter...a whore chaser...and abandoned his own family....Jackson is a horrible role model for this children...his family...his race...his so called religion and his country..
Thank the Lord ..George Bush is the exact opposite of Jackson...
BTW Jesse...what branch of the military did you fight in again?.....oh that's right...another of your many failings and hypocricacies....guess you were too busy dancing around in that fake bloody shirt you paraded around in for a few years...claiming it to be the blood of Martin Luther King
when it was NOT...
Liar Liar...Poverty Pimp...and whore chaser...racist agitator...phony preacher....
imo
They were "homeless" because of a Tax Increase!!!!
Ha! thats rich...and Reverend jackson is a "Reverand"????
There wasn't room at the INN because Jesse and his Aduterous Whore got the last one.
Jesse would have called Jesus a Jaime(not sure if that's how it's spelled)
The explosive growth in social welfare now consumes about 66 cents of every dollar we spend, and Bush has increased the rate of spending dramatically over Scumbag's 61.8 cents.
See Section 3 of U.S. Budget in link below: ("Human Resources" is a superfunction that includes most of the welfare programs).

The RATS would have made Jesus live in a place where mentioning His Father's name was grounds for eviction.
