What We Did Not Get Out Of The Jesse Jackson Comment   

Of course he was speaking his mind. That's the point. He wasn't making a joke, nor can he claim anyone misinterpreted his statement. He clearly stated while speaking his mind that Obama's behavior makes him want to cut the man's balls off. He claims it was a private conversation which makes it that much clearer that he meant what he said.

I was one of the moments that he would have wish the the mic was off. Eventhough he was speaking his mind they made sure that everyone hear it. Have a good one.

I don't usually say this, but I think it's racist to claim that he is not half African just because of his father's heritage. His father was from Kenya, an African country. This is the same type of racism a South African friend of mine dealt with when he was accused of fraudulently listing himself as an African American. Why was he accused of misrepresenting himself? Because his skin was white. He was born in Africa (South Africa) and became a naturalized citizen after his family moved to the US. By all reasonable standards that qualified him as an African American, but because of the color of his skin alone people wanted to label him as Caucasian (a fabricated race meant to include everyone with light skin).

What you're doing to Obama is the same thing only you can't use the color of his skin so you are tracing back his family tree to question his African heritage. Seriously, just drop it and focus on his stance on the issues, dishonesty, flip-flopping, and inexperience. Those are more relevant to his potential as a president than his heritage.

You CHOOSE to miss the point.

And Yestheypaymetodothis, you are still peddling the same tired BS. You got your stats from a video gaming website. And you are the first person I have ever heard, who knows what percentage blood you have to have to "qualify" for a certain race. Come up with some intelligent argument for hating Obama. Give this senselessness a rest.

Thank you, Gewcew!

Do not be so hard on yourself Fiona.

Jessy Jackson an old time far left civil rights activist,his thinking has not advance with the times,Jackson will die blaming the white race and the government for every ill of the black race since the beginning of time.
Jessy Jackson sees that Barrack Obama soon as the primary ended quickly move in to the center playing field.
The left wing liberals and the black voters fueled Obama campaign pouring vast amount of time and money in to the pockets of Obama and his camp.
Jackson sees Obama move to center as a tradtor,Jessy Jackson is most pissed and his harsh statement of his intend to do harm to Barack Obama can and should be taken most serious.
Barack Obama has to have the in depended, blue collar,Christian,Latino vote,this is why the fast pace move to the middle ground,Obama has now no time to baby set his faithfully flock.
Jackson sees the picture clearly Barack Obama is whoring his self to the center field voters.
Obama's pastor on national television a couple months ago O told the world, Barack Obama is a politician,and he will say anything he has to,to get elected,(quoting Jeremiah Wright words).
Barack Obama during a Father Day speech said black men have to take responsibility for the children they have fathered.
Jessy Jackson inturptered this in to Obama has been talking down the black people,which lead to Jessy Jackson statement which was picked up over a hot mike.
It is most popular in our day and age to place the blame other then where it belongs,example a few people are calling this a set up, facts of the matter is Jessy Jackson screwed up and he got caught in the act,
Jessy Jackson would rather see a race riot in the United States then a nation with brotherly love,it keeps him in the spot light as well as in business.
Jackson refuses to let the pass go,seems his mind lives in the shadows of how it was more then thirty years ago.
If Barack Obama should become the president of the United States, Jessy Jackson and people like Jeremiah Wright are out of business,they can no longer beat their bitter and hateful war drums singing the tune white man is unfair which they both have done for the past thirty years.
No,Americans that we know have cracked a smile over what Jessy Jackson said over a hot mike.
Jess Jackson made a speech on national television,saying he is sorry for what he said,this about all he can.
Is he sorry,I'm not the reader of the human heart,I don't know,but I can say for almost certain Jessy Jackson wish's
that dammed mike had not been on.
No one that I have heard or have talked to has blamed Barack obama for this mess up,so people already holding up that old wore our race card,please will you grow up.
