If you thought that Jesse Jackson Jr. had an easy life, growing up the son of a multimillionaire racism entrepreneur, with a seat in Congress virtually handed to him on a platter because of his father's position in Chicago black politics, think again. It turns out, according to his mommy, that he has had a life of "enormous disappointment." Poor Jesse! Poor mommy, too, for now it turns out, according the Jacqueline Jackson, that she was "tricked" into speaking out publicly about her son's years of disappointment.
The bizarre saga of the political Jackson family just gets more and more outlandish. The Congressman took off work for two weeks with no explanation, later informing his constituents that he was in treatment for " exhaustion," later upgraded to treatment for "mood disorder" at a rehab facility in Arizona.
Yesterday, in Chicago, mama Jackson addressed a Rainbow/Push gathering of women of her son's disappointments. Abdon M. Pallasch of the Chicago Sun-Times writes:
Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.'s mother, Jacqueline Jackson, told a Rainbow/PUSH conference Friday that her son has suffered years of "enormous disappointment."

"Aww, MOM!" LOL! Cringe-worthy. In the extreme. Momma Jackson just buried his political future.

I feel sorry for every child raised by liberals and socialists. Everything Jesse Jackson, Jr. learned was a terrible lie.
Kids have a terrible time learning about lies and injustice. Imagine if your father was leader of that pack.

I just found out today that JJJr’s wife is on the Chicago city council. (more inbred political mobsters)
So when JJJr is in DC, he’s got this hot little Peruvian restaurant hostess on the side.
No wonder the boy had to go to Arizona for a rest.

Thumb to mouth glug, glug, glug. When a grown man has his mommy talk to the press for him, it is more like breast to mouth...

If Michael Jackson was my cousin, I’d be despondent also.

You make a good point plus the celebrity type atmosphere they're raised in and the fact they can do no wrong in their circles.
