REV. JESSE JACKSON APOLOGIZES TO SEN. BARACK OBAMA FOR 'CRUDE AND HURTFUL COMMENTS' CAUGHT BY OPEN MIC... DEVELOPING...
Called him a Raghead. Or was it a Mooselimb? Can’t remember.
He probably called him whitey
Another one under the bus? Can’t wait to see what da Rev had to say about his Chicago buddy. I will probably agree with him, and I am sure it is probably an ‘Imus’ moment.
The Rev. Jesse Jackson apologized Tuesday for “crude and hurtful” remarks he made against Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama after finishing an interview with a Fox News correspondent.
Jackson told CNN that the interview had wrapped up and he didn’t realize his remarks were captured by a “hot” microphone.
Jackson didn’t elaborate on the context of his remarks, except to say he was trying to explain that Obama was hurting his relationship with black voters by recently conducting “moral” lectures at African-American churches.
“My appeal was for the moral content of his message to not only deal with the personal and moral responsibility of black males, but to deal with the collective moral responsibility of government and the public policy which would be a corrective action for the lack of good choices that often led to their irresponsibility,” Jackson said in a statement issued Tuesday afternoon.
I wouldn't put it past either of those tools to orchestrate some phony "incident." They're both from Chicago. I've never heard that they're buds, but who knows?
It'll be interesting to see what he said.
So now instead of a seat at the front of the Bus, Jesse will be thrown under it!!!
LOL!!
ok, I thought I knew my curses but I can’t follow that one ???
From your link:
Radio host Sean Hannity just revealed that FOX News is in possession of an exclusive tape of Reverend Jesse Jackson, recorded in a studio when he thought the microphone was off, slamming Barack Hussein Obama for “talking down to black people” on matters of faith among other issues.
Hannity also intimated that Jackson says he wants to “rip Obama’s nuts off” on the tape. Hannity would not say “nuts,” but based on his description (portion of the male anatomy beginning with an “n”) I believe that’s the word he was going for.
Hannity says the tape will be played in its entirety on tonight’s Hannity and Colmes.
I have no doubt that Jesse is steamed that Barak is not black enough.
I wonder what Larry Sinclair has to say about it!
In deep distress because he got caught, not because of what he said.
was it worse than mack daddy?
Poor Jessie backed the wrong horse in this race.
Did Jesse call BHO typical?
I can’t either. “Nuts” doesn’t need to be bleeped. Well, maybe in that context.
Aweeeeeeeeee, I feel the brotherly love. (eye roll)
Isn’t Jesse Jackson a rabid socialist? Doesn’t he like Obama. All black people like Obama... except me and a very small handful of others.
I don’t even need to know what was said.
Obama will proclaim he totally forgives Jackson’s comments, whatever they are, and the MSM and the Racial-hucksters will wet their pants with delight over Obama’s generosity and unity.
