REV. JESSE JACKSON APOLOGIZES TO SEN. BARACK OBAMA FOR 'CRUDE AND HURTFUL COMMENTS' CAUGHT BY OPEN MIC... DEVELOPING...

[weegee]

"Nuts!" - General MacAuliffe

[HereInTheHeartland]

“CNN DESCRIBES WORDS AS ‘VERY, VERY DISPARAGING’; JACKSON IN ‘DEEP DISTRESS’”

Maybe he said the government is not the solution to people’s problems..

That type of statement would fit the CNN comments..

[weegee]

Bet they’ve played clips of Borat.

JESSE WILL GET A PASS. HE IS A LIBERAL BLACK DEMOCRAT, SO HE MAY SAY ANYTHING HE WANTS TO SAY...IF A CONSERVATIVE WHITE REPUBLICAN SAID ANYTHING LIKE THIS, HE WOULD BE BRANDED A HATEMONGERING RACIST.

[Fresh Wind]

Just wait. The Rats will blame Fox for “entrapment” by leaving the mic open, just hoping for Je$$$$e Jack$$$$on to say something that would damage His Obamic Holiness. It’s Fox’s fault, not Je$$$$e’s.

[Gator113]

“Jackson says he wants to “rip Obama’s nuts off” on the tape.”

Assumes a fact not in evidence.

Obama has proven himself to be a liar and a coward, among other things.

I’m more inclined to believe that he doesn’t have a set to “rip off”.

Now if Jackson had made the same reference about that monster of a wife that Obama has, I would believe it.

[Spunky]

Two boxes won't do it.

[Americanwolf]

Yeah weegee that was a good use of the Term NUTS though.... even though misread by the German Commander that received said reply from the Bastar#s of Bastogne

[maggief]

Rainbow Nuts Coalition

[philled]

And he's not down for the struggle....

There ain't gonna be no cash money, no walkin' around money, no phoning money...

[Crawdad]

Well then, some conservative should say it.

[TommyDale]

He could have used the slang “ ‘nads “ and no one would have said anything. It would have just been considered normal Ebonics.

[Texas Songwriter]

Knee

Nads,

Neck

What else starts with 'N' that would upset Jesse, should he get causght saying it. Does this make him a hippocrit? They call him Rev. It is not good for Rev to be hippocrit.

[TommyDale]

ROTFLMBO!! (Burritos are back!)

[Jemian]

Because I’m really not sure.

NUTSO!

[Fresh Wind]

ROTFRBONO!

(you figure it out from the context)

[TommyDale]

Ummm, “Knee” starts with a “K”...LOL! But I see you are a songwriter — probably a phonetics thing?

[TommyDale]

Rolling On The Floor Ripping Both Obama’s Nuts Off?

[Amelia]

I think they are more worried about undercutting Obama’s support if Jesse Jackson doesn’t support him.

I’m not too surprised about Jesse Jackson; he has a history of making rude & crude remarks when he thought he wouldn’t get caught...I think someone ought to “Imus” him, though. ;-)

[Christian4Bush]

Jackson told CNN that the interview had wrapped up and he didn’t realize his remarks were captured by a “hot” microphone.

PERCY: "I...I didn't know the sponge was supposed to be wet." (the sponge for the electric chair condemned).

HAL: "How many years you spend pi**ing on the toilet seat, before someone told you to put it up?"
