Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr., D-Ill., drew heavy criticism from fellow Democrats and his Republican colleagues for demanding President Barack Obama suspend the U.S. Constitution and declare a national jobs emergency.

“It’s worse than that, Jim; he’s still speaking!”
“Put a red shirt on him, then shoot him again, Bones.”
Two years they were so close to enforcing their socialist utopia they could taste it.
November 2010 spoiled their party. Now they’ll do anything keep it from slipping away.
I think the Left is more dangerous right now than they’ve ever been.

Jesse Jackson Jr. is actually quite accomplished; he’s managed to outdo his infamous father in cluelessness. It could earn him a Nobel Prize in Physics.
No, it is not. He's been trashing the US Constitution and overstepping his office since day one.
HAPPY DAY! Home at last...
