Rev. Jackson Trash Talks Obama
Drudge Report ^ | 7/9/08 | Drudge

Posted on 07/09/2008 2:01:47 PM PDT by Roberts

REV. JESSE JACKSON APOLOGIZES TO OBAMA FOR 'CRUDE AND HURTFUL COMMENTS' CAUGHT ON TAPE... FOXNEWS WILL PLAY IN ENTIRETY TONIGHT ON 'O'REILLY' 8 PM ET... OBAMA: NO COMMENT... DEVELOPING...

Statement: For any harm or hurt that this hot mic private conversation may have caused, I apologize. My support for Senator Obama_s campaign is wide, deep and unequivocal. I cherish this redemptive and historical moment.

_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.

_That was the context of my private conversation and it does not reflect any disparagement on my part for the historic event in which we are involved or my pride in Senator Barack Obama, who is leading it, whom I have supported by crisscrossing this nation in every level of media and audience from the beginning in absolute terms._

Jesse Jackson is on the record as:
Hating Whites
Hating Jews
Hating Blacks

His rainbow “coalition” is rapidly shedding colors. He is a serial-racist who has the nerve to lecture others on race issues.

[private conversation may have caused, I apologize.]

If that was some corporate person who had an ‘open mic moment’ disparaging a black, even if it was innocuous and PRIVATE, Jessah Jackson would tell him: “Forget the apology...GIVE ME YOUR MONEY”

Blatantly transparent, bogus, and incredibly phony.

Great minds think alike. To those of us who have been around the political block this is obviously a Sista Solja moment.

The Toyota people might have an idea.

Didn’t Michelle Obama say, back in January or so, that she wanted to rip something off of Bill Clinton and then later said she was joking?
