American blacks face the end of civil rights under the new Republican-controlled Congress, and need to force the Democratic Party further to the left as a remedy, the Rev. Jesse Jackson and other liberal black leaders said yesterday at a voter-participation forum.

Gone are the good old days when you can say that someone called you the "N" word. Yup. Freedom gone down the drain.

[kcvl]

virtually every civil rights remedy will be made illegal next year

Like filing your TAX RETURNS ON TIME, Jesse?!

[fieldmarshaldj]

Shouldn't this read "Jackson seeing LEFTS erode under GOP" ?

Action Shackson in parody: "Its Bull O Connor! Its Bull O Connor! We're back in the days of Selma, Alabama in 1963! We're back in the days of Selma, Alabama in 1963! Keep hope alive! Keep hope alive!!!" (The GOP is KKK in drag but don't let blacks know it ain't true and the times have really changed. Sssshhhhh.)

I'd love to see their University diplomas. If Jesse can beat up Texaco, where does he have this authority? The man looks like a downs sydrome candidate.

If the RNC was smart, and they sure were this year, They would buy TV time for the Rev.Mr. Jackson.

I wish a big time Republican would challenge this racist SOB, somebody like Rudy or Bill Bennett, and tell all of America that this guy is a fraud and is using race to line his own pockets.

[Joe Boucher]

Hey Jesse, you fraud, shake down any corporations lately you race baiting philanderer?

American blacks face the end of civil rights under the new Republican-controlled Congress

Something fundamental has changed. They can't say this stuff anymore without sounding like parodies of themselves. No one serious is going to believe this; it's hokum, and everybody knows it's hokum. The more hysterically shrill they get, the more ridiculous they sound.

I just saw in the Gallup Poll where a mjority of the public has a favorable impression of the Republicans and generally agrees with the Republican Party's ideology. So here is Jackson telling a majority of Americans that they are supporting racists. Good luck with that act, Jesse.

...and need to force the Democratic Party further to the left as a remedy...

Right on, Rev! Where can I send a donation?

[pariah]

everybody knows it's hokum.

But, but... what about the police dogs and road blocks to keep black voters away from the polls in FL back in '00??? Hee hee hee.

[goldstategop]

But but but... how could Jeb win in 2002???

[Straight Vermonter]

The Democrats are going to find themselves moving left just when Black America is moving right.

[Fresh Wind]

I think the best solution is for Je$$e Jack$on to form a new party, for blacks only. That will prove to the rest of the Democrats that he is really serious.

[Cannon6]

Why do people post crap from this racist?

[San Jacinto]

There is only one solution for the Democrats. Only one. They must nominate Al Sharpton for President in 2004. He is the perfect Democrat candidate and the only one who can make up for the way the Dems have foresaken the poor Africa-Americans. SHARPTON FOR PRESIDENT 2004!

[TomServo]

He blamed the demise of many Democrats...

On Kennedys.

..........."Next year, the right wing is going to control the White House, the House, the Senate and the courts. Virtually every civil rights remedy will be made illegal next year," the two-time former Democratic presidential hopeful predicted..............

Left-wing Bigot Bump.
