When will the white media stop holding these crooks up to be "Black Leaders". We have established that Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are embarassments tot he Black community, but white media outlets seem to be obsessed with these two idiots. Jesse Jackson is suppose dot be a minister, but he is quoted as being anti-semitic, he is noted for being completely ineffective in any of his "civil rights" movements. He is a leader who has never even been elected to any political posts? Al Sharpton didn't even finish high school, and was sent to jail for FRAUD!
Enough is enough with these clowns. I am proud of Barack for ignoring these race-mongers, who have turned civil rights into a profiteering venture (check out Jackson's and Sharpton's contracts with Fortune 500 companies).

Funny how I doubt BLACKS wouldn't be Barack supporters IF he was married to a WHITE WOMAN. They're voting based on race yet when caucausians do, they scream foul. He may be married to a black woman but he's JUST AS MUCH WHITE AS HE IS BLACK. I know caucasians tanner than him.

Love it when liberals eat their own, they do it so well. Jesse gets caught red-handed, and knows he is toast. Doesn't matter, no way Osama/Obama will be President anyway, but fun to watch. More to come I'm sure….

Re: HoHoH –
Wrong. I can see it's going to be one of those days where i have to school ya'll on the TRUTH. Truth is, and you can Google it if you don't believe me, blacks are the DEMS MOST LOYAL VOTING BLOCK. 98% of blacks voted for Bill Clinton TWICE. 98% of blacks voted for Gore. 98% of blacks voted for Kerry. This January, blacks didn't know who Obama was. But they knew the name Clinton! So they were going to line up right behind Hillary and the polls showed that. RIGHT up until Bill shot his mouth off with the Jesse Jackson comment after Iowa. That made Bill Clinton, who blacks affectionately used to call "the first black president" get white really damned fast. The way Hillary ran her campaign just made it worse. So blacks haven't been on the Obama campaign from day one, the Clinton DROVE them there.

Now to the current sitch. Jesse fucked up for sure. I think he took some of Obama's comments about "personal responsibility" personally. But how dumb would you have to be to do that shit on FOX NEWS of all places? Like they wouldn't leave their mics on to catch some off the cuff comments? Damn, Jesse. Not very smart.

Alright. Let's see who else i can school.

Once a douchebag, always a douchebag. Je$$e Jack$son and Al $harpton have always been the most hypocritical scumbags.

"It is time for us to turn to each other, not on each other. " - Jesse Jackson

I guess he should practice what he preaches…..and without fucking them this time Jesse.

That's why I don't want Obama as President. The race issue is going to be brought up all the time. I'm sick of it. Word to Jackson, the President represents all of the American people, not just blacks.

Go Hope! And I have been on the Obama bandwagon since the DNC in 2004….so have many others. As for what we would do if his white was white…nothing. The african american community is a HOTBED for interracial marriages. So shut the fuck up…

Why does anybody give a shit what this guy says? Jesse Jackson was a weak civil rights leader at best, has been politically irrelevant for like 20 years. plus he's scummy all around… Anybody who gives a hoo about this guys opinion is an idiot and should immediately start padding their room, they're a danger to themselves and others.
Me says – reply to this

i really wish the media would stop asking Jesse jackson and Al Sharpton to speak on behalf of the African american community. Their unwavering ingnorance does not represent me
smith says – reply to this

27

Is Jesse Jackson even a relevant force anymore? He is a blustery, same old same old preacher. Retire u r old dumb a*s already. The way these preachers talk black and white is hilarious, sound like 50's radio voices. If you talked like a regular person and not so f*ckin fake you would have many more followers…man u guys r dumb.
The media want Jesse J and Al Sharpton to talk b/c they actually hurt any black initiative they speak for. It is clever, don't u see people, open ur eyes.

Jesse Jackson is old, tired and irrelevant. He should be already put out to pasture. His comments were that of a deranged maniacal nitwit. What Obama said was true. Any man can get a woman pregnant but that does not in anyway makes him a father. It's about time some of these young black men step up to the plate and become responsible parent.

Jesse Jackson is such an asshole. Talks "down" to blacks?!? How is it possible to talk "up" to a culture that almost across the board refuses to be educated, to hold a family together, to stay out of prison, to stop leeching off of Welfare. Grow up, black people of America, and then somebody will talk "up" to you. You live in your drug-infested, kid-littered, ghettos, you get talked down to. GO OBAMA! I hope he keeps talking down to blacks until he has the opportunity to talk straight to them.

ok does he even have nuts to cut off? I don't even think obama thinks he's black. He act like hes better than most white people wait is he talking up to the republicans
tony says – reply to this

32

To Jesse:

Your comments about black americans proves to me that you are just another racist republican. There are great black people in this country that has done a whole lot for themselves and their communities. It's only a minority of blacks that lives in squalour . I suggest that you rethink your assessment of black people and look inwards to the white folks that are also on welfare, living in substandard conditions, etc.

The "Revrund" is running around trying to recussitate his sorry "career".
Next time he tries to shake down a company they'll tell him to f off. This guy is guilty of everything he accuses his "targets" of and that is racism.
And by the way isn't cutting Obama's nuts off a practice used by those racist lynchers of old that Jackson says still exist in large numbers all over america? He's promoting that which he claims to be against. Hypocrite in of the highest order!

These post seem to always bring out the worst in all af the bigots and racist/ sexist here. Anyways, Jessie Jackson is definetley doing damage control but being a human about it I can relate to being angry with someone I genuienly like/ support and saying something bad about them. I've wanted to beat the shit out of someone I love, people can just make you that angry but it doesn't mean that you don't like them, don't support them or that they are your enemy!

As far as why Jessie made the comments in the first place… I am proud and happy of the fact that Barack is addressing these issues and telling the truth about it. People that don't want to hear it or say he's talking down on black people are out of touch with reality. I could say alot more but I'm gonna leave it there.

On another note Perez, it would be nice if you would delete or block racial/ sexits comments on your sight. Atleast take them down when people post them. You seem to be an open guy who is a happy person, there is no need for that sort of hate on your site…I'm just sayin

The man verbally assaulted a potential President of the United States. With the new wire tapping laws (or lack thereof) Jesse is going to be getting a ration of $hit. We just took away the Fourth Amendment so why not take away the 1st and throw him in jail for talking…if not, who cares finally everyone of all colors gets to see the shady side of Jesse Jackson and maybe now people will stop listening to his hypocritical ass

If the damn change all you Obama goofs want is the Communist policies he would love to put in place, then go to Cuba it's not far. No jail for rapists( look up the vermont girl killed after a man raped someone a year earlier and the activist DA yes DA attorney did nothing. Why dont they just put all those liberal in One place and let there kids go through that. It's funny our current president was the one ALl you fools were crying about takink away freedoms, But with Obama the only ones that will suffer will be the people that work hard and actually make a buck. Were supposed to support the Ghetto ass people that live by me in Chicago that are on welfare driving escalades. While the business man is that bad guy Screw ALL the Left wing nuts!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. I want Perez to ask those HOLLYWOOD LIBERALS why they dont open there checbook and pay more in taxes themselves. Warren Buffet and some Hollywood fools say they dont pay enough taxes. I think there is a place on your tax form to give more. And stop telling me to A. take less showers for water conservation, B. Rapists can be rehabed C. drive less D. Obamas the savior to all of man kind What a joke

I think what has been agreed is that he is not racist at all and only white peoples can and will be racist like the Imus. JJ and Sharpton represent hundreds of billions of people around the globe in their fight against white racists. Hoorah Hoorah!

If Don Imus had made the comment, both Jackson & Al Sharpton would be all over TV demanding his being fired (again). Double standard

Jesse Jackson wants to keep his own personal dream alive. I feel his time has long passed. Jesse and the likes of Al Sharpton are actually doing the african-american community more harm than good by perpetuating the idea of being a victim and it's everyone elses problem why we (african-american community) are having the problems we do. Obama is right in saying what he did. What he said, in my opinion, goes for ALL people. Be responsible, get an education and lead a good life. WHY WOULD ANYONE BE INSULTED BY THAT????? Clearly Jackson is afraid of losing his 'power', which is already slipping.

Jesse Jackson history 101:
In 1981 Jesse Jackson refers to a section of New York City as HymieTown. Hymie is an anti Jewish term. Jackson is not challenged by the press because of the white reporters are afraid of being branded racists.
Ash says – reply to this

54

Jesse Jackson was once relevant. I think that for all he ahs done he shold be given a certain amount of respect. Obama isn't perfect, and for blacks voting for him because they think he will "rescue" the rest of us. Wake-up! Part of why Obama might win is because he is black but has many mainstream views. Get over it, Obama may not be as black as we want him to be but he is a step in the right direction!

Jesse is a habitual abuser of women.
Way back when I was naive and wanting to help fellow brothers and sisters, I worked on a project with his group.
He kept hitting on me in every possible way and when I said no, he gave me the cold shoulder. I was stunned because he was considered an icon in many circles. Well that's sure changed.
Soon I came to my senses and realized what a snake he was. I slowly got involved in conservative politics and found new black heroes. Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell, Colin Powell. A lot of the BS on Clarence is just that, BS. He's a great man.
Any back to our Revrend, he got lucky with my coworker. They continued on for a while. She did say that he's great in the sack, even though she regards him as a liar and cheater today.
Jesse, come clean with God. You look the fool right now.

Every "interview" and "report" on this has the talking heads tripping all over themselves to make it easy for the rev. Talk about a softball interview. The GMA guy makes it sound like Jesse was wronged and is graciously accepting someone's apology.

Criss Angel Is Recorded Threatening To Knock Out His Producer!

Whoa! Criss Angel is NOT messing around here!

The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!

Give it a listen (above)!

Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!

He explains:

“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”

Scary!

Violence is never the answer, folks!
