Jesse Jackson talks about Obama "cut his n*ts out"

[joobz]

Glad someone else noted that - about the doctor. Clearly Jackson knows NOTHING about body language!!!

Jesse Jackson doesn't care about Barack people.

For the 100th time:
A Ron Paul supporter should be very careful about accusing other parties of being racist,consdiering those newsletters.......
Jerome gets the "Sore Loser Of The Year" award for his endless and stupid attacks on Obama because Obama is the favorite to win the White House in November and Ron Paul has become a laughing stock.

"has become"???? When was he not one?

Your link doesn't mention what Jackson actually said.

I'm sure O'Reilly will play the clip in its full context and not play "Gotcha!" in any way.

You could not find a link that shows what Jackson said? It's all over the net.

Right. I'm sure in the FULL context of what Jackson was saying to Dr. Reed Tuckson his desire to emasculate Obama was actually a concern for Obama getting testicular cancer.

O'Reilly had on Dr. Eric Dyson today, who in true Dyson fashion, was sympathetic to Jackson.

 

[Suddenly]

I'm about half-convinced this conversation took place in 1989.

Jesse Jackson: Let's see here Al. I'm a respected civil rights leader who significantly challenged for a presidential nomination of a major party. You looked like a fool over Tawana Brawley and are more or less the epitome of the blowhard race card playing attention whore.

Al Sharpton: So?

Jesse: I bet in less than twenty years I can make myself a bigger joke than you.

Al: You've got to be kidding me.

Jesse: I'm serious. I know you aren't going to get much more credible, but I'm sure I can act like a total idiot and get the job done.

Al: Normal wager?

Jesse: Yep, one dollar.



Methinks Al owes Jesse a buck...

Jerome's conclusions are becoming a reality faster than ever!!!

Jackson's `Crude' Remarks May Give Boost to Obama

That Obama is a worthless piece of scumsucking slime. I've trod in better stuff on the sidewalk. He's a big pantywaste. An ant has bigger nuts balls than that wimp. My grandmother could kick his a*s from here to Arugula, and she's dead. Ugly Michelle is one overbite away from being proud of America. Isn't Hussein a Muslim name anyway? That turban lovin' creep can go back to Kenya and eat worms with the Jihad tribe. If he comes to my 'hood, I'll steal his lunch money and his daddies too. Where'd he get that stupid haircut, I've seen better looking bush babies. He can take that phoney patriotism lapel pin and stick it in Pelosi's botox infected face, she won't feel a thing.


So, how much has that rant boosted his electability with bitter gun totin' religious kook whitey? Really though, it's amazing how anything is reported as a positive for Obama. The media are simply in love with the guy.

Sure, now. I wrote that yesterday afternoon before Fox News released it. You'll have to excuse my inability to find links before they exist. My crystal ball has never worked right.

Er, actually quite a few have reported it as being bad for Obama.

And cognitive dissonance much? You just referenced a negative story that the media loved to play.

But still, others are saying it is positive because, it kind of is. I know, some things are actually positives for Obama. Shocking.

And if talk to other people, they say "the media" is in love with McCain.

No doubt but isn't that true for most (all?) minority groups. A wetback can rag another wetback all day but let someone else say the same thing and it's a totally different matter. Hell, as an atheist, I ridicule some of our tribe's more silly stances but if an "outsider" made the same comment, my back would probably be up.

Yes you are correct, it is expected. However, I feel that creates more of a racial discord. Unforunatly, hypocrisy is just one of my pet peeves. It irks me whenever I see it.

Anyone see Countdown tonight? I wasn't going to watch it but I read Rachel "crazier than Olbermann" Maddow was responding to Jackson's remarks. If you dare you can go to the Countdown website on msnbc.com and watch the video. It's #3. It's also ridiculous.

Put down the sousaphone for a minute and you can see your computer monitor better.

You can have my sousaphone when you pry it from my cold dead hand.

"has become"???? When was he not one?

I agree Paul's bizarre Economic and Political viewpoints have always been ridiculous, and I never thought he had the chance of snowball in hell of getting the GOP nomination, but I did think he might be able to start an independent candacy and take maybe 4 or 5 % of the vote..enough to maybe influence the election a la Nader in 2000. But since April it has become apparent he will not even do that and has become a joke.

I think you mean this video

I think she has a vendetta against O'Reilly. Seriously, she is as laughably biased as he is. I wish they would both just go away. The issue was about Jackson, and instead she found a way to slam Fox News about it, as if that horse hasn't been beaten to death already.

I can understand the context bit, but what under what context is "I want to cut his n*ts off" in any way acceptable? Even Sharpton did not try to defend these comments. I would like to see more footage to understand why he said such a thing, but I seriously doubt it will change the meaning of what he said.

As for Obama, I don't think this should/will hurt him. Jackson however, made a fool of himself, and came out looking like a complete hypocrite. If a white male made this comment he would be all over it.

 

[T.A.M.]

If anything, being attacked by Jackson will help improve Obama's image.
The fact is, I think a lot of people have caught on to the fact that Jackson is a demogogue and a shake down artist.

lol...

I agree. In fact, If I were a real CTist, I would suggest that maybe this was a plot by the Obama campaign.

If you want to prove you are not a paranoid schizophrenic, you can (A) tell people as much, or (B) stand a paranoid schizophrenic, in full blown psychosis next to you, and allow people to make up their own minds...

so if you want to assure the voting public you are not the stereotypical "angry black man"...

(and before you all get your knickers in a knot, NO I DO NOT THINK THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED, but for the reason above, I think the whole incident did play to Obama's favor).

I don't see what's the big deal. Everyone knows that Michelle has already cut them off. She has them in a jar in a closet.

From this day forth, I firmly believe that this should be a test of candidates' Presidential capability. I look forward to Obama's "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" and McCain's "Hop On Pop"
