ONEROUS RECOUNT IN OHIO (SLAPS JESSIE JACKSON!)
Washington Dispatch ^ | 12/14/04 | Paul Weyrich

Posted on 12/14/2004 7:53:32 AM PST by areafiftyone

There once was a time when the Rev. Jesse Jackson intervened in instances of genuine injustice.  At that time there was racial discrimination on a variety of fronts.  I have never been a fan but I have to concede that he once did some good.  That was then and this is now.  Today Jackson seems to be continually in search of a cause, and seldom finds one that requires his presence.

 

Jackson is in Ohio, where liberals have raised enough money to fund a recount in the Presidential race.  It was Ohio which put President Bush over the top in the Electoral College.  That the President carried the State by approximately 117,000 votes is something that the far left cannot accept.  Therefore, they are now inventing all sorts of problems which supposedly occurred during the 2004 elections. 

 

It doesn’t hinder Jackson and his compatriots that the Secretary of State of Ohio is a Black man, Ken Blackwell.  Do they actually think that Blackwell wants to suppress the Black vote?  Then again Blackwell is a Republican, and from the far-left vantage point all Republicans want to prevent Blacks from voting.

Was that before or after he was spitting in the food of white people at the restaurant where he worked?

Was that before or after he wiped his shirt in the blood of MLK one April morning in 1968?

Was that before or after he complained of NY as Hymietown?

" I have never been a fan but I have to concede that he once did some good. "

In the South, this is referred to as his moving to Chicago.

Was that when he worked in a restaurant as a kid and spit in the white patron's salad?

Or was that when King was killed by an empty-headed communist asssassin and Jesse stepped in, played the hero and took over?

This rat is a racist pimp and has always been down there on the bottom with the other carp.

Jesse is a smart hustler and pimp.

There is a reason for him to be in Ohio.

Sometime in the future we will find out with a small back page five sentence article under the fold in a late edition Fridays paper.

Most smart people realize it's not to get Kerry an Ohio win, there's an angle somewhere here. Hopefully Jesse will spill the beans to the wrong reporter.

Millions of blacks did vote for Bush, how do you supress only non-Bush voting black people? Hell of a trick to pull off. Bush won by 2 million votes, about the same number of blacks who voted for him. Also why Ohio?

If all Republicans want to supress the black vote and all black republicans do not want to supress the black vote then all blacks should register republican to avoid supression. Do the Liberals agree??

Black freepers like me certainly know what Jessie & Co are up to and his presence on any scene should make everyone call foul!

Can anyone come up with a symbol for-No shakedowns allowed?

Isn't defacing money a Federal crime?

As far as I know - I don't think so. How many times have you gotten money with writing on it. Who is going to catch them?
