Jesse Jackson Praises 'Sister Hillary' Despite Slurs

The Rev. Jesse Jackson praised New York Sen. Hillary Clinton yesterday as "Sister Hillary," after Clinton cited his efforts to overturn the presidential election by challenging the Electoral College vote in Ohio.
Speaking at his annual Wall Street Project fundraiser, Jackson said "Sister Hillary" had been an important ally in his fight for those "traumatized by what happened to us as a people and a nation in Ohio."
He called Clinton "a light in dark places," who has "stood on the right side of history," according to quotes picked up by the New York Sun.
The praise for Clinton came despite a series of racial faux pas uttered by the top Democrat over the years, such as her slur last January against civil rights icon Mahatma Gandhi.
"I love this quote from Mahatma Gandhi - who ran a gas station down in St. Louis for a couple of years," Clinton told a St. Louis fundraiser. Pointing to the audience she added, "Mr. Gandhi - do you still go down to the gas station? A lot of wisdom comes out of that gas station."
A few months before that "Sister Hillary" slipped again, saying in a speech televised on C-Span she was "grateful" to have grown up in the "white suburbs."
Republicans had idealized "the 1950s white suburbs for family life," Sister Hillary explained, "which I grew up in and write about in my book – and am very grateful for."
She was also silent when videotape emerged in 2001 showing Roger Clinton repeatedly using the N-word during a police surveillance operation.

It has been reported that people close to the klintons in Arkansas were well aware of the penchant for the word nigger.
This always upset me.
And recently Jesse spoke out about hillary breaking a promise to VOTE against confirming the election results...leaving barbara stretch face boxer to stand alone in the senate in voting against confirmation...hehe.
Hillary must have placed phone call to Jesse, along with $$$$$ promises, to shut him up and change his mind about reporting on her betrayal. LOL
The klintons....isn't it always about money covering unethical and immoral and shady dealings and broken promises!
