Preach Rev. JJ:"Taking off the hoods and putting on the suits!"
Just heard that the good Rev. Jesse Jackson, in talking about the suppression of votes,told it like it
T I 'is!

The good Rev. broke it down clearly when he said,"They are taking off the hoods and putting on the suits!"

That is the way this message has got to get out to everyone, especially my Brothers and Sisters.

The Rev. is RIGHT!

The KKK is alive and well and living in ALL the red states and ALL the BLUE states.

The KKK/bigots are all dressed up in their BLUE suits and wearing RED ties and sitting around the table at the WHITE house.

1. This is exactly what the KKK did to change their image...
took off the hoods and put on suits.

2. It goes well beyond bigotry...
It has to do with them thinking they can do whatever they want, to whomever they want. Think about how slavery started... it wasn't, "ooh i hate these black people," it's "hey here's some people i can make do whatever the fuck i want." They rape the goodness of every poor walk of life. They pile garbage dumps and fly zones in black/poor communities around the nation. They make deals with other countries that keep their indiginous peoples oppressed. And now they're saying that more than half our nation agrees with them.

Fuckers.

3. Very good points199


And they sprinkle pixie dust on many poor Whites to make them believe that they will be protected from Blacks and Muslims if they
vote Republican.

5. Exactly, Hobbes
The suits are wolves in sheep's clothing. It is not a new phenomenon, it has coursed through human history, but now, now, it is at it's most powerful position ever. Actually conniving our vote on a scale never before possible, they surely are patting themselves on the back, eh?

But we are gonna take 'em down. The revolution is here. We have got to get it together, and take 'em down, and I believe, I firmly believe, we will get it together and end this shit, once and for all.

7. I love you photo of Jesse! I saw the link to the article

here at DU today and now I can't find it. :(

I did a search of Jesse and hoods and KKK and got nothing back but this thread.

I'll keep searching. It is a good link.

6. THIS
is what we need to get our message out to voters.That the Republicans are rascist bigots.
This should be used as a talking point for the DEMS.

11. EXACTLY
People keep forgetting about the VOTER SUPPRESSION. It wasn't JUST in Ohio, but in Florida and other states. It's a rebirth of JIM CROW and it violates the civil rights act and it MUST BE STOPPED. It took ONE HUNDRED YEARS after Lincoln freed the slaves for blacks to get the vote. PEOPLE DIED.

Do you think we should just ignore this and let those racists incite the old ax-handle brigade all over again? This movement was DELIBERATE and CALCULATED by the JUSTICE DEPARTMENT'S VOTING SECTION, headed by the Federalist Society's Hans Von Spakovsky. You can read all about it in the New Yorker. They deliberately set about to SUPPRESS the vote.

16. Applause for Carolab!

You nailed it!
You should send your words to Jesse.

Sounds like a case for the Supreme Court in an Honest Land needs to hear our case for SUPPRESSION.

Huuum, now if we could just find a Court that was not owned by Bus Co.

23. You are so right YellowDogin the house! nt

A lot of people have allowed Republicans to frame the debate once again.

They have us believing it is a Red and Blue issue.

In 2004 it is still a BLACK and WHITE issue in Amerika.

Until we take off our sunglasses and see the real reason why Health Care, Education, Affirmative Action, AIDS have not been addressed in this nation,with this administration, it remains a BLACK and WHITE issue.

Now they are after the UN. Why, because it is a BLACK (Annan and those other delegates that have darker skin) man in charge and every one gets a seat at the table. SUITS believe that they must always be in control.

The rest of the world can see the SUITS for what they are but we have trouble identifying them without their hoods.

17. MM may have on a suit

but he is NOT a bigot.

Michael Moore did more in one hour plus a little to put the spotlight on the bigots and on injustice then GWB has done in his life time.

Anyone that has viewed F911 would know that fact.

Of course, some Freepers claim they have never seen the movie, so maybe that's why they can't get their information straight.

19. MM - Patriot
Edited on Fri Dec-03-04 03:48 AM by jbond56
I'm so glad MM is on our side. I admire him for touring the country rallying people to take back our country. In the Tonight Show interview he said something like, "If you can't beat them look/dress like them." What I really like about Mike is he always seems ahead of the pack.

MM is not a bigot. I consider him a true American Patriot. I should have added more context to my previous post. When I saw the interviews MM I thought it was hilarious. took lots of great jabs. A large number of people didn't pick up on it.

MM was showing us what the bigots look like and JJ wrote the truth on the Blackboard. My post was to make people recalculate their impression of that appearance.


as to implying that I might be a freeper. ouch. Also hilarious.

Jesse Jackson will NEVER be owned.

Speak truth to power, Jesse. Silence is consent.

18. Go Jesse!


That is the Jesse that we know.

Do you realize what we have allowed the media to do to all our heroes!

Aarold the gropper believes he should run for Gov. and this man is taunted and smeared because he stands up for justice.

O'Reilly has phone sex with we know not how many and he is their darling.

When we we ever learn to overlook anything they say about our heroes?

Go Jesse!

20. So does that mean the KKK won't be showing up
at the county fair, dressed up in all their glory any more?



It made so much easier to pick out the bad guys back then.

22. We can still spot them by their deeds

GWB is at the top of the list.
Some times "THE SUITS" (I like that expression) even hide behind African Americans(Paige/Thomas/Rice/Powell) to throw some people off.

Neat trick but clear thinking people see through it immediately.

SUITS still hide behind the Amerikan Flag and Religion and their so called Moral Values.

All that Religion and all those IMMORAL Values are stripped of there meaning behind closed doors.

Nothings changed but the window dressing.
Strange Fruit.
