Bishop Harry Jackson concerned Values Voter peers may appear racist

ROTFLOL. Well, Harry, you laid down in bed with these people and are just now realizing they also wear the sheets? (Right Wing Watch):

Bishop Harry Jackson, the Religious Right's favorite African American preacher, asked the mostly white participants at the Values Voter Summit to tone down their anti-Obama rhetoric. He knew they weren't racists, he explained, but the fact that some people were sounding like racists made it even harder on him as a conservative trying to get other black clergy to join his anti-gay organizing in D.C.

While asking summit participants to be less offensive, Jackson's Saturday afternoon speech may have actually reached some new personal lows of offensive rhetoric.

>Come on Harry - you wrote a flipping book, Personal Faith, Public Policy: 7 Urgent Issues That We, As People of Faith, Need to Come Together and Solve, with the FRC's Tony Perkins (who's running the VV Summit). Tony paid former KKK Wizard, cosmetic-surgery-enhanced, self-proclaimed head of the "European American" movement, David Duke, $82K for his mailing list.

Of course this is the height of hypocrisy on another front, because we all know that Jackson has been trying to scare black voters with race-baiting tactics, charging that white wealthy gays are trying to take away their right to vote against same-sex marriage in D.C. Of course this meme assumes black LGBTs don't exist in the District:

3. I'm not sure how he thought that was going to go.

All of those RW homophobes who are white are usually quite racist, also. They hate anyone who isn't a straight WASP. :shrug:

4. That ship has sailed, Bishop Jackson...

Too late.
