>> But the congressman’s family owes the people who have supported Jackson, the voters, more detail. <<

Huh? This reminds me of that silly thread saying freepers should "apologize" for Obama's rude behavior towards British PM Gordon Brown -- AFTER Brown was the one who WANTED us to elect him in the first place.

Why would JJJ "owe" an explanation to the people who supported him? They've made it abundantly clear in the last few election cycles that they will ALWAYS support him no matter what he does in office. He's just giving them what they voted for. Maybe the REST of us who AREN'T brain dead and actually care about a politician's record and ethics "deserve to know", but I have no problem at all with Jesse pulling a fast one on the idiots who continually re-elect him. They wanted him, they deserve him. I couldn't be more pleased that IL-2 has no "voice" in Washington right now. Elections have consequences and they knew what they were getting.

shake-down artist who wears $3000 Brioni suits while

There is no such thing as a $3,000.00 suit, there are just idiots willing to pay that much for something that could be bought in Hong Kong for a hundred bucks.

Well, however you look at it, the man is a charlatan...
And you had to post that to make what point?

Yes, it’s likely illegal money or illegal drugs.

We have idiots that pay $3,00.00 for a suit and people that don't get the point of sarcasm. It was not aimed at you.

I didn’t think it was aimed at me...
But I think you meant your comment to be “ironic” not “sarcastic”...
The irony being that Jesse Sr buys these over-priced suits and tells us he’s the voice of poor black folks...
Just trying to figure it out (I have lots of time on my hands - it’s 104 outside right now).

I understand, getting old ain't for sissies, I am in a much more moderate climate than you I suppose, rarely tops 90 degrees, but yesterday was one of those days.

Politicians like CEOs and trust fund Billionaires, demand the good life., and they get it.

Too bad I guess, if you were old you would probably have to put on a sweater.</Just Kiddin>
