Does anyone recall when Jesse Jackson made a similar commentabout feeling safer when walking down a dark street and finding out that the person walking towards him was white?

That was the very first thing that came to mind when I heard about this...

I don’t think Helms made that comment.

Yeah, Charles Krauthammer, a panelist on FOX, made this analogy on Wednesday or Thursday night. They put the quote up on the screen. Jackson said that in 1993.

I definately remember that. Jesse Jackson has every right to say things like this. Obvoiously he has a huge credibility problem. While everyone says Juan Williams is a liberal, I never thought he had a credibility problem. I always found him quite honest and sometimes offered ideas about a certain issue I have no considered.

I remember him making that comment, but it went down the black hole of PC the next day...probably the only time Jesse told the truth about anything...
