Jesse Jackson Lies Has a Bad Memory

Filed under: Politik > Barack Obama

It looks like the Reverend Jesse Jackson doesn't practice what he preaches!

As we mentioned earlier, it was revealed today that the Rev dropped the "N" bomb in his anti-Obama tirade captured by a Fox News 'hot' mic.

Well, it looks like Jackson has selective memory.

Check out what the Rev said in an interview with TV show Inside Edition last week:

Inside Edition: "There's a report that you used the N-word to refer to Obama, is that true?"

Jackson: "Not to my knowledge – unfortunate that is common usage in private, but I'm not aware of that."

Inside Edition: "You're not aware if you used the N-word to refer to him during that private conversation?"

Jackson: "No."

Jackson also told INSIDE EDITION that any use of the N-word is unacceptable.

Inside Edition: "If you did use it or can recall using it, do you know if it was in a hateful way or simply trash talking, as you've described before?"

Jackson: "Simply that – and again since I have discouraged the use of that language both privately and publicly, that's unacceptable as well."

Jackson didn't use the "N" word to refer to Barack Obama, but he did seem quite comfortable using the word in another context.

Doesn't that contradict what he told Inside Edition?

He needs to take some lessons from Whoopie Goldberg — being honest about a tough topic is better than being a hypocrite, right?

      You don't practice what you preach, either, so the two of you should have lots to chat about. You're always so indignant when someone uses the word fag or insults anything gay but you use horriblly sexist language against the ladies all the time and you're bashing Lindsay and Samantha.

      Jesse Blackson and Al Sharpton are idiots. The stuff that they used to thrive on ("oh us poor black people") is now being turned around by Obama and he is trying to make this crap about the poor black people go away, which means Blackson and Sharpton now have nothing to complain and go on tv about. Also, what a hypocrite. When Kramer went crazy and used the N word, Jackson said we should boycott seinfeld. Now he can use it????!!! Such a fucking joke. These guys need to get the F out of the public arena. And whoopi just looks likr a pawn in their stupid game. What a joke these people are. They need to get their heads out of their asses and stop using "terms of endearment" to refer to each other.

      The new fact of the matter is previously Jackson and Al Sharpton only counted because candidates saw them as important (or more likely a necessary evil) to reaching the black vote. Not any more. Obama has seen to that. Bye Bye Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. The black voters have a new leader that not only commands their respect, but the respect of the white community as well. Without threats. Without violence. Without corruption.
      Have a nice day Jesse and Al. They are over.

      He should have gotten the hint, from the way he was interviewed,that they had him saying it. Is he getting stupid in his old age? Well, he apologized. He is on his way out, if not already out, of being somebody to look up to or ask advise from. Just see what his son said about him, even he does not respect his father at this point.

      Jackson has shown himself to be the thug I always thought he was. He was never elected to any office, never ran anything but his fat mouth. It is his ilk that turn off white voters. He is a dinosaur.

      Jessie Jackson is a complete piece of garbage. So are you others calling negroes the "n" word, but come down super hard on any whitey who does. Fuck you. The democratic party would love nothing more than to keep on giving out "free" help and welfare to blacks and other "so called" under-minded people. We don't need your Goddamn help, democrates. We can make it just fine on our own, just like every other normal American citizen does. We don't need welfare, affirmative action, the NAACP, etc. So go fuck yourselves, you holders back of black people, you racists, you "but I am different" fucks. I am a black person voting Republican, because that is what I truely beleive our best interest lie. Don't follow the crowd, people. Think for yourselves.



    28. 28

      Vote none of the above! They all are egomaniacs. Give them talk shows, and let them host SNL or whatever. Obama supporters get the lube up there cause if he gets in…you are gonna need it.

      As for McCain. His old lady needs to lay off the bitox. Other than that, he's four more years of Bush.

      Think about voting for a third party. The biggest difference between Obama and McCain is who owns them.

      31

      To talk so much about equality and black power and then to say that Obama has been talking down to "n*****s" is disgusting. If no one whether they be black, white, whatever uses that word than the negativity of it will go away. You can't tell white people not to say the n word but then use it to describe your own people. It is a disgusting word and I hate when people, white or black, use it.

      Re: JJ – Well at least they are a devil we know when they identify themselves in this sick manner.
      It does tend to normalize the deviants when you allow them a forum though and allow them to find each other. Maybe they will get arrested by the cyber police if they get cocky enough. There is nothing funny about the sexual exploitation of children. Way to go for speaking up.

      Funny! I've followed this story for the last week and it was published that Fox News had more shit on Jackson. Some fun is going here!

      I'm sorry - but I think this is hysterical. The blacks can't even keep it straight amongst themselves.

      And this is about the "Agent of Change"

      I THINK NOT. BARACK OBAMA HAS BEEN SOLD OUT BY HIS OWN KIND BECAUSE HE'S FLOATING TO THE RIGHT TO GET VOTES.

      CHANGE? NO. Typical politician. (and I might add - not very experienced).

      The liberals have once again banned a word, (but only for a certain race) remember cripple? We can't use that one anymore either. George Orwell in his famous book 1984 predicted this. In his book he called it "New Speak" What is even more ridiculous it this N-word only applies to white people. Imagine that, a world were, you are not allowed to say certain words depending on your race..

    89. 89

      So let me get this straight.
      This raving banshee for civil rights, one of the last militant movers and shakers that survived the 1960's, says the "N" word is such "common usage in private", that he can't remember on a specific day in a specific context whether he used it or not.
      I'm trying to think, if questioned about a specific day on a specific subject, how common a word would have to be for me not to remember whether I used it or not.
      In this case, a highly inflammatory word ( SO THEY CLAIM ) that white people lose their reputations and jobs and careers for uttering.
      I'm white, and I want a special word. Describing myself, in a derogatory way, sometimes mean, sometimes funny, that I can use with and on other whites, that would be so common it could easily slip my mind—but that if uttered by an african-american will take him to complete and utter ruin.
      I think we deserve a special word.

      Re: Advocate For Eradication Of Ignorance – Don't hold your breath for a special word. Caucasians in this country must still dearly pay for the acts of degradation of our ancestors, you see. Never in the history of the world has any race been subjected to acts of violence like the blacks. (Not the Vikings who raped and pillaged across Europe, not the Jews who were almost exterminated by the Nazi's, nor when the Israelites were forced into slavery by the Egyptians, nor the Romans who were brutal in their own right, nor the Arabs who beat and rape their women) None of these groups ever suffered. Whitey must still be called out upon, and vengeance sought for our outrageous behavior. We must all hold our breath, and our tongues apparently, because every move we make, is undoubtedly, racist.
