There is no beef!
Despite Jesse Jackson's hurtful comments, Barack Obama has accepted his apology.
"He of course accepts Rev. Jackson's apology," Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton said.
It's water under the bridge!

LADYBALLS THINKS REV JACKSON IS ONE CLASSY GUY
Re: reps0 – ANOTHER HILLBILLY BACKWOODS INBRED COMMENT!
NUMBER 1!!
he might have accepted his apology, basically because he had to, but he isn't going to forgive him. JJ' son also works for Obama. Obama had to forgive for his campaign
Jessie is a hater and is jealous of Barack Obama. I guess because we can actually understand what Barack is saying, he needs to be in an English dialect class somewhere.
Re: reps0 – homophobia is disgusting and moronic, i truly hope you'll get all your issues sorted someday and live a happy life with yourself and others.
oh, and unlike barack obama, john mccain wasn't born in america, he was born in the panama canal zone.
OBAMA 08!!
If a white person had said that this would have blown up into the biggest scandal EVER. A white republican saying that would never live through it….this will die down in no time because it`s black against black….
What are you idiots talking about? You must be loyal Faux/Fox viewers. Think for yourselves, what idiots. You are what's wrong with this country.
first- give OBAMA a break ,i think it is a generational thing my parents dont agree with all my decisions and i with theres -rev wright and rev jackson come from a different time -obama is addressing the issue head on we all need to love one another take care of our selves and repair this mutherfucken country- for the time in my adult life i really feel proud to be an American-could Mconecain have given that speech ? yes- but the way he gives speeches -no one would have got en the message -bye the way- Obama has address that issue before not just to the black community but to all the mutherfuckers not taken care of there bussiness-JACKSONS JUST ANOTHER CRAB IN THE BARREL
Re: bubba – BUBBA……ENOUGH SAID!
Re: bubba – BUBBA……ENOUGH SAID!
JESSE JACKSON IS SUCH A HYPOCRIT!
BTW, BLUE EYED BLONDE….YOU CAN'T RUN FOR PRESIDENT UNLESS YOU WERE BORN IN THE US!! DUMB ASS, OBAMA IS A US CITIZEN AND HAS BEEN FROM BIRTH….STUPID BLONDE!
MCSHAME DOES NOT ALWAYS WEAR A FLAG PIN HE VOTED AGAINST THE GI BILL AND HE WAS NOT BORN IN THE STATES -TRY PANAMA -ASSHOLE OR SHOULD QUOTE WHAT HE CALLS HIS STEPFORD WIFE "CUNT"
There were no "hurtful comments." Just another incident blown out of proportion by the media. What else is new?
see, even Rev. Jackson dislikes the deceitful Obama.
what are y'all waiting for? vote green party or republican!
There is no beef…why beef with that dumbass disgrace. He's just mad that Obama takes care of his kids and he doesn't even though he's mad paid. And he's jealous because Obama got farther then he ever got. Funny funny…Jesse Jackson says Obama is talkin down to black folks…HAHAHAHAHA. I heard it all. Drop dead Mr. Jackson and I DONT mean Michael
If this had been a white person, good ole Jesse would have thrown a huge hissy fit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!He just needs to go away….forever
Where's the apology from Obama. He is so embarrassed that some Americans go to France and can't speak French. 10,000 young American men died on D-day at places like Normandy and Utah Beach. Doubt they knew alot of French. They gave their lives for the people of France. If they hadn't Obama would have to be embarrassed that stupid Americans can't speak German when they go to France. This from a man, who tells people at a campaign rally, his grandfather liberated Aushwitz in Germany. Aides had to tell him that Aushwitz is in Poland and was liberated by the Russians. Obama's family history seems to be a little "fuzzy" to him, as well.
Is Rev Jackson a "community organizer" as well? I'm not sure what a "community organizer" is but I'm not sure electing one President of the US is a good idea.
Re: Rhond – HOW MANY OF YOU AMERICANS KNOW THAT CANADIAN TROOPS SECURED JUNO BEACH WHICH LED TO THE SUCESSFUL INVASION THROUGH NORMANDY! JUST CURIOUS?
OBAMA 08 YA'll !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fuck ya'll shit mouthed haters! Your stupidity is shining @ blue eyed dumb ass blondie…
What the FUCK!! they are both stupid fucks!!! Who gives a SHIT what these 2 fuckturds SAY!!!
of course he accepted the apology, publicly. what was he going to do, pick a public fight over his comments? obama has to stay classy so his CELEBRITY image stays clean… way too much HYPE about this guy.
Re: LettyB – of course, millions of Americans are very aware of the contribution of the Canadians and British, our closest Allies! My point is, Obama could be POTUS and he doesn't seem to know the contributions made by the same military he wants to command. Americans embarrass him but he wants to be our leader.
THE WHOLE "PUBLIC APOLOGY" AND "ACCEPT APOLOGY" THEATRICS ARE SO INSANE IN THE MEDIA THESE DAYS! DO YOU THINK JESSIE'S APOLOGY MEAN SHIT? DO YOU THINK OBAMA WOULD LIKE TO HAVE WIPED HIS ASS WITH JESSIE'S APOLOGY INSTEAD OF HAVING TO BE POLITICALLY CORRECT? JESSIE JACKSON IS THE BIGGEST RACIST HYPOCRITE ASSHOLE SCUMBAG THERE IS! HE HAD ALREADY MADE COMMENTS ABOUT OBAMA NOT BEING BLACK ENOUGH FOR HIS TASTE.
I LOOOOOVE THAT HE GOT BUSTED ON TV BEING A DICKHEAD HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH!
Of course he "accepts his apology"…Obama is just another fake-ass politician who will say anything to win power! That's a fact. Better start practicing your spanish, amigos.
Re: Rhond – CANADIANS ARE FORCED TO KNOW HOW TO SPEAK FRENCH BECUSE HALF OUR COUNTRY WAS BUILT BY THE FRENCH, SO I AGREE WITH YOU ABOUT DISAGREEING WITH OBAMA'S COMMENT BECAUSE I AM NOT QUITE SURE WHY IT'S NECESSARY FOR AMERICAN'S TO KNOW FRENCH! PUERTO RICAN MABE!LOL!
OBAMA IS PERFECTION!
McCain wasn't born in the States, he was born in the Panama Canal Territory.
Thats good. need more unity.
Obama wants us to learn Spanish???? F him, if you don't speak English and are not in classes to learn, leave this country!!!!
Re: REPOR – McCains father was in the US military in Panama, get it! DUH!
HE IS A REAL MAN THIS IS THE TYPE OF PERSON I WANT AS PRESIDENT
mccain IS AS EVIL AS GEORGE- THEY WILL BURN IN HELL
Re: dan – actually you have it all wrong. Gay people are disgusting and perverted. Man and Woman ONLY YOU FREAKS!!! MCCAIN 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If Obama cannot standup for himself, how can anybody expect him to stand up for this country?
Jesse Jackson is one of the deadbeat dads Barack is talking to in his speeches about values. He fathered a child out of wedlock, stepped into the shadows for a while and then being the arrogant person he is he came right back into the spotlight to keep talking. If Obama loses the election, he can thank Revs Wright and Jackson. If you listen to the black commentators and columnists on the evening news shows they all talk in circles, if you call them on a statement they made in the past, they twist it up like a pretzel, anybody who votes Obama is a fool, I am not a Republican but when Hillary lost the nomination I decided to vote for McCain because this is what we will see and hear for four years, nobody in the white press will be able to ask a question or make a comment and did anybody watch Obama while he was "interviewed" by Maria Menounos of Access Hollywood, right there he showed what a fool he was, he at least could have done the interview with 60 Minutes or 20/20. He is a poor speaker off the cuff, if he doesn't have his mouthpieces right behind him he is far from eloquent.
Uhmmm, I am not an American and I know that ur Constitution says that you must be a natural born citizen to run for president. Shouldn't U.S. citizens know this? So, saying Obama is a foreigner is not correct.
Did u know McCain was born on an army base in the Panama Canal Zone, which is or was not considered part of the United States?
Some of you commenters need to know a little more about ur amazing country. P.s. ur Republicans are hilarious, why people vote for them amazes me. Yeeeeehaw, lets kill everyone, raise taxes and rule you like a king. Lol, tools.
Yay for Obama — our next president!!!
Re: reps0 – Hawaii is America, you asswipe. Obama is American, is a patriot, and is our next president.

Why do they even cover Jess Jackson. No one gives a rats ass what he says anyway. Not relevent. Go Obama!
hah. more like sewage under the bridge if u ask me!
Re: polit –
Your ignorance disgusts me. Don't you even know US history?? you can even google it for godssakes:
"The Spanish language has been around in this country for as long if not longer than English. It began in the early 1500s with the Spanish exploration of the "New World". The Spanish initially established colonies in Florida and explored the coasts of Georgia, the Carolinas, Virginia, and New England. The Spanish then decided to explore the vast West and Southwest territories of present-day United States. This began as early as 1540. Today, you can see the impact of this exploration in the large Spanish-speaking populations in Texas, Nevada, Arizona, California, Colorado, and New Mexico."
Go, Obama! You keep on talking "down" to the blacks of this country. The majority of them need a GIANT kick in the ass for their insistence on remaining uneducated, on Welfare, in prison, and breeding like idiots to promulgate their stupidity and general leech-like behavior. The slavery pity party has ended. Scratch the surface of anyone and you will find pain — past and present — galore. Yes, the blacks had it bad. Real bad. But that doesn't grant them the "right" (why would anyone want it?) to be leeching assholes forever. Being a taker is boring. That's what people on Welfare are: BORING. And the result is they get talked down to. Don't like it? Get an education and leave the ghetto and stop fucking, breeding, and abandoning — the Black Trifecta.
Re: smith – so relieved your not an American. Lets see, we send our military to serve in foreign countries and when their children are born we make the babies citizens of a foreign country. Makes perfect sense, if your a total fool!
Re: reps0 – #1 You R an Idiot!!!
Watch one — just one — episode of "Maury Povich" and you will understand perfectly why Obama (and just about everyone) talks "down" to blacks. Gee. . . . Wasn't that Jesse — can't keep my wrinkly dink in my pants — Jackson who knocked up some whore babymama? I am beyond sick of the BLACK AGENDA: fuck 'em and leave 'em. Keep it up (or is it down?), Obama!!!
Re: reps0 – #1 You are an Idiot!!!
Re: LettyB – # 2 and many more I LOVE YOU!!!!
#7 Please get that facts stright B4 you try to sound smart!
#21 Amen to THAT!!
#26 calm down there honey!!
bubba is right, if JJ were white this would have been a scandal.
Re: dan –
obama supported partialbirth abortion. look it up of you don't know about this. he will undo all rights of unborn humans. i have proof, you're welcome to email me at patriceheine@gmail.com, for more info. he's not qualified, no trespectable, and says what people WANT to hear. our country will fall apart if he wins, especially regarding terrorist activity.
Re: Peggy – WTF r u talking about? U have to be over 40. P.s nice spelling lol.
Re: smith – and you must be under 12
yah its cool when a BLACK calls a BLACK out, but can you IMAGINE the racist card that would be played right now if jackson was white???? this is crazy!!! don imus was fired and had to publicly beg forgiveness for his statements and this will be buried by the media as quickly as they can do it. some channels arent even saying EVERYTHING the rev. said…..such as him wanting to rip obamas BALLS!!!!!
Peggy & Smith….I bet you two are mother & son in different rooms talking sh*t to eachother not even knowing who one the other is. You”ll be chatting over dinner in a few hours!!!
Jesse Jackson is a total hater. He's just bitter than Obama will be the first African-American president.
WOW I can see the bandwagon is rolling right through this page!!!
Jesse Jackson said those remarks because HE MEANT IT. the superficial and insincere apology is so Obama can save a little face. Obama has just over a 100 days of political experience in Washington. He is NO orator- without a speech in front of him, he stumbles and stutters worse than Bush ever has. Why? because he DOESN'T KNOW what he is talking about. If he wakes up in the White House next year, he is going to be one scared SOB. He has to realize at some point that he doesn't know anything. It's like being asked to do brain surgery when you are really just the admitting clerk at the hospital. HE DOESN'T KNOW anything about Washington or business. He's never even had his own business! What a joke!
Why is it that if you are MIXED with black you become a BLACK person???
People are so warped!!
Its NEVER the other way around if your 1/2 black 1/2 white then you are BLACK BLACK BLACK BLACK.
Re: Maoi – that's funny, but I don't have a son. Smith is not my son TG
reading these post and listening to AAmericans call into talk shows, as a conservative person, I find it interesting, that things we said about Bill and Hill and Jesse and Al years ago and have been saying for years are now becoming the becoming mainstream democrat opinion. With that thought in mind 10 years from now dems will understand that Obama is a Marxist.
I think this is all bullsh**! Had a whiteman made these comments about Obama, they would have screamed racisim all the way to the press conference mics! However, when a fellow africian-american makes the negative comments everything is cool … and it's water under the bridge.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, do not use the expression "Water Under The Bridge" when Ted Kennedy is in the room. Thank You
Someone PLEASE tell me one place in the whole wide world that is under the control of (blacks) and is a safe and civilized place to be? They wait for others to build something good, then they invade like roaches until they have torn that area to pieces before seeking another target. Even blacks know what the code words Nice Area mean.
In NO there was a police officer who in the last 15 minutes before he retired, the chief of police suspended him because his shirt was the wrong shade. I just knew the guy was gonna be white and sure enough. Would think New Orleans would have more to worry about than a guys shirt that was 15 minutes from retirement!
