Jesse Jackson made a "disparaging" remark about Obama?
Just heard this on my local RW radio. They claim Jesse made some bad remark and it's on tape and Bill O'Reilly is playing the tape on his show tonight.

I won't be home. Should I set my DVR?

6. "Prince Obama" WTF??
Before it's edited:

"No doubt, Jesse will get the same kind of out of context scourge that Bill Clinton received during his campaigning for Hillary. You can't say anything about Prince Obama without feeling the wrath of the media and the pro-Obama camp."

Seriously....

Not often you see something this blatant

btw, I hope you know you linked to my reply not the reply that actually used the terms your copied from their post. No biggie I just don't want to be accused of saying that shit when the original is deleted.

8. Yeah, she is.
One of those PUMA types who insisted that Obama winning the primary was the end of the Democratic party, that he's a liar, would lose to any Republican, that the Obama supporters were all abusive and sexist, etcetera.

You know, the people who've since been confining themselves to trolling and trying to undermine the nominee in ways that won't get them kicked off the board.

18. And what's wrong
with being "pro-Obama"? In DU?

I am curious as to "all the things" that black folks are upset with him about. Please spell them out for me. All the black folks "I" know, me included, still want him to win.

20. i have never been an obama fan
Edited on Fri Jul-11-08 06:40 PM by noiretblu
never got caught up in obamamania, but i will vote for him in november. as a black woman, my lack of devotion to obama has almost gotten me in a few fights :7
as for jackson, this reeks of theater to me, just like clinton's sistah souljah moment. maybe this is obama's sistah souljah moment :shrug:

3. Something about cutting his n*ts out...not a big deal, I think.
Set your DVR?
Not if you get CNN, MSNBC, FOX, or have the google, it'll play for days.

4. Jackson got caught on an open mike trash-talking about Obama's supposed treatment of black churches.
He used a vulgar euphamism to describe the supposed effect of Obama's morality lectures in black churches on Obama's relations with said churches.

Apparently once he found out he was on a mic, he's been very apologetic and contrite, going on about how inappropriate his remark was.

19. Morality lectures at churches???
Oh goodness.

Jesse Jackson probably doesn't like Bill Cosby, either!

I searched but didn't see anything already posted. I guess I should have figured Drudge was involved.

9. so stupid, Blitzer was all scandalized !
I thought it was going to be a different thing that he said he wanted to cut off, haha. I mean, Wolf couldn't just say "testicles" or something? What a wimp. "It's SO BAD we can't even SAY IT ON AIR!"


I'm sure the Fox spin will be that Obama is an elitist who looks down upon people of all creeds.

11. But, how stupid is Jessie Jackson to think he could say that in fox studios?
Why would he think he has privacy there?
We really don't need this.

14. I don't know; my first thought was this was maybe a good thing
Jesse Jackson is really hated by the right. Maybe it wouldn't hurt Obama to put some distance between Jesse and himself?

divert attention from Obama's FISA vote. This could turn out to be very GOOD thing for Sen. Obam.
