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?

      obama has so much junk circling him its not even funny. his "former" pastor who he named his book after, then was a family member he couldnt disown, then he DID disown him and didnt agree with anything he said….all in the course of about 3 months. now he heads to israel with the 3 main media moguls on his private jet with him…..is everything a photo op?? why cant he just do anything without a script or a media crew kissing his ass? dont trust this guy at all…

      Obama must be shaking his head. The very people that he is trying to help are doing nothing but hurting his cause, Jesse, Reverend Wright…I bet he wished all of his "friends" would just shut the hell up.

      White ppl gave us that name N***r , to degrade us. Thats y ots still offensive for u ppl to use it to this day. If us black ppl want to use it thats our business. We really need Black history in school. White ppl need to learn more Black History than Black ppl.

      Go Jesse! There is something very fake about Obama and his wife. I can't put my finger on it but I have always had that feeling. I have never felt that way about Reverend Jackson or Reverend Sharpton. Whether you love them or hate them they keep it real. :)

      Why have we tolerated this person for so many years. He is a failure, he is a racist, and a hypocrite. He is sabotaging "his" peoples candidate. Obama is everything Jackson could never be. Why is this guy still alive? I don't know. What is his purpose in this universe? GO AWAY JACKSON!!!!!!

      Re: For c – oh okay. so…black people can say the derogatory term, but whites can. well then! case closed. jackson didnt do anything wrong then! oh wait….he said HIMSELF in the past that its not right for blacks OR whites to ever use the term…I had forgotten. Oh wait, he also said he wanted to cut obamas nuts off….this is a much bigger deal than the n word. Its the fact that he condemned anyone, black or white for saying it, and then said it. His whole career is based off calling out other people for the VERY things he just did himself.

      Here are your great liberal leaders at work. Fox tried to keeps it under wraps to save THEM face, but it leaked. FOX was afraid of backlash.
      Rev. Jackson says he won't use the race card, but hell use the N word! idoit.

      Jesse Jackson is a HYPOCRITE!!!!! Constantly looking down on black men for having babies out of wedlock and guess what, he had an affair and had a child out of wedlock. Now this! He's a joke! Being black myself, he doesn't speak for all blacks at all.

      let me make that clear so Perez can print it.

      The n word ending in er = The white version. the one commonly used during slavery and by white bigots. (EX. I hate black people,they are n…ers)

      The n word ending in a = The black version. the version we own to take the sting out of the one above. It is commonly now used as a term of endearment. (EX. I love black people, they are my n…as)

      I have to agree with Elizabeth on the View whether Whoopi believes it or not we DO all live in the same world. If they want everything to be equal then why is it okay for them but not for us because THEY have decided that WE use it in a derogatory manner and they do not. Where's the equality? I want a t.v. station called WHITE ENTERTAINMENT…I want a whole month called WHITE HISTORY MONTH…I could go on forever. Equality my ass…

      Wake up America.. REALISM is not RACISM. Whites have always carried the Afrocentric black and probably always will BUT heare again REALISM is not RACISM. They are little more than children and would perish without our kind benevolance. Even the stiride they claim to have made in racial matters are 99% gifts from whites and not of the blacks doing. The new dictionary will tell you RACISM is the expression (in any way) of any negative regarding the negro, no matter how factual or verifiable. Don't you know THEY invented just about everything and operate at a genius level. Humm wonder why they can't speak civiliazed English?

      i do not get why anybody would vote for obama or hilary. i am a woman, but i would never vote for hilary cause shes a woman. but because shes a democrat who has a stupid plan for our country. and if you are black and the only reason why you like obama is because hes black-pleeeeeease do not vote at all. leave it to the ones who actually knows what he stands for and not how he looks.if there was an asian running-which i am-and she/he was a democrat i wouldnt vote for him/her.MCCAIN is for the war because he belives in using our countrys power to help them better their country-which is in our constitution-google it. besides-most of you democrats cant pay for the raised taxes a democrat president would issue.VOTE MCCAIN!!!!!

      Good ol' Revrund Jackson running around with other women (not his wife) and creating lil' Revrunds. Whatta man!
      The Revrund "I call NYC hymie town ’cause I hate Jews" Jackson is a liar and a race baiter.
      Are we really sure he denied saying it? Maybe he fessed up? No one really knows because he speaks an unbelieveably unintelligible form of English.
