Jesse Jackson Says Gov. Brewer ‘Gave President Obama the Finger’

Jesse Jackson Says Gov. Brewer ‘Gave President Obama the Finger’ By Mike Bates Created 01/28/2012 - 9:37pm

It was a routine Saturday morning at Rev. Jesse Jackson's Rainbow PUSH forum, broadcast nationally on the Word Network. He was all over the map. Jackson trashed Ronald Reagan, Barry Goldwater, Newt Gingrich, and Mitt Romney. He warned that enterprises such as black funeral homes and black insurance companies are “under attack.” He condemned a proposed change in Grammy Award classifications. Jackson also spoke out against Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer, who, he said, “did the ultimate insult. She put her finger in his (President Barack Obama) face.” Jackson wants people to call and complain (video here):

Also, while it’s on my mind, Gov. Janice K. Brewer, the finger person. Gov. Janice K. Brewer, who gave President Obama the finger, governor of Arizona, call 1 800 253 0883. Keep that line real busy. 1 800 253 0883. We’ll give you the number later a little later today and this week on the email number of her press secretary. We want to keep Arizona. . . until she can put her hands in her pocket and have some good. . . do you know how insulting it is to put your finger in somebody’s face? Try it with the cameras rolling, she knew the cameras.

She knew what she was doing. She was telling him off. She was cutting him down to his size. She must never get away with that. Even George Wallace did not put his finger in Dr. King’s face. Say, enough is enough.

Being the pious, innocent, saintly man he is, perhaps the Most Rev. Jackson deserves a pass. Maybe he doesn’t actually know the difference between giving someone the finger and waving one’s finger in another person’s face. But does he really consider the latter to be “the ultimate insult”? For a man who’s referred to Jews as “Hymies,” said in the last campaign that “Barack’s been talking down to black people” and that he would like to cut Obama's testicles out, and admitted to, as a young waiter, having spit into the food of white customers he didn’t like, Jackson has a remarkable notion of what comprises the ultimate insult.

Naturally, Jackson’s blunder will be ignored by the mainstream media. He’s always given a pass. But the very next time “the black view” is needed on a story, he’ll be front and center and ready for his close-up.

If Jesse Jackson says it, it must be true!

If the governor did as Jesse said she did, she’s my hero for life!

Yeah, and if he’d had lunch with her, she was gonna spit in it before it was served. Just like Jesse when he was a waiter back in the day.

Hmmm, I wonder if he’d have referred to himself as a “server” to be politically correct if he was waiting tables/spitting on food today?

Does anybody have an update on the (male) assistant suing Jesse Jackson for sexual harassment?

I wonder if it’s another Obama + Larry Sinclair sort of situation.

The desperate ranting of a demagogue who sees what little relevance he once had slipping away.

Bambi put his hand on her. I don’t know if it was the white arm or the black arm... but most women will tell you that if you do it again you’ll draw back a bloody stump.

Dear Jesse,

Guess what? The majority of American citizens, if given the chance, woould give Obama the finger. Let’s hope that that finger is also used come November to get the creep out of office and out of our lives forever.

When you obnoxiously turn down a hand written invitation to lunch and a visit to the border...you should get the finger.

Well. that isn’t quite the finger I’d have given him, but from Jan Brewer, it’ll do.

"The majority of American citizens, if given the chance, woould give Obama the finger."

We would also give the finger to Jessie Jackson both Jr & Sr.

As we have long predicted, the race hustlers will foment racial strife in order to try and gin up the black vote. Right now the blacks are really not motivated to go out and vote for Obama so they need to create a James Byrd (hate whitey) moment. It’s all they’ve got. What is the unemployment rate among blacks under Obama? Yeah.
