Video: Jesse Jackson Attacks Barack Obama On Race
BY VIRGINIA H. SHANAHAN
No doubt by now you have heard about the Reverend Jesse Jackson being caught on tape saying Obama talks down to black people, and that he “wants to cut his nuts off.” He throws in the motion for good measure. Apparently the Reverend was upset with Obama’s “lecture” from the pulpit telling black men to be fathers to their children. According to the Reverend that was embroiled in his own scandal, when a woman he was having an affair with gave birth to his illegitimate child, morality does not solve the problems within the black community.
Seriously, what was Obama thinking. Keeping families together and in tact. Teaching men to be men, and love and nurture their children so the cycle of broken homes and abandoned children will come to an end. Nah, that will not solve a thing in any community. So let the Reverend continue to be the beacon of morality.
Before the news of Jackson’s comments had time to circulate across the airwaves he was on his apology tour. He claimed to support Barack Obama unequivocally.” Can you imagine the venom if he did not. Thanks Jesse, but you keep your support to yourself.
Of course, this is not the first time the irrelevant Rev-u-rund Jackson has attacked Obama. In September of last year he said Obama was “acting like he’s white.” It seems there is something wrong with being white. Anyway, he was very upset because Obama would not jump on the manufactured Jena 6 controversy.
Seems to me Jackson has a jealousy problem. The man has been trying for decades to create a cult like following, and here comes this young little nobody, from no where. Certainly Obama’s success to date, reminds Jackson of his own stunning failure when he ran for president.
Your day has come and gone reverend. Retirement is a wonderful thing that most look forward to, especially us. Think about it.
