Well, thank God. A reality check (I was beginning to find it all too surreal). Switching to MSNBC.

Good. Jackson, like Al Sharpton, has become a cartoon figure, a joke.

He doesn't represent the United States: Jesse Jackson represents only Jesse Jackson. Jesse Jackson is only interested in promoting Jesse Jackson.

He saw this trip, not as a way to advance the interests of the United States, by as a diversionary tool, hoping that some cheap, PR victory would finally wash away the stain of his filthy, abominable personal and financial corruption.
