Is Reverend Jackson Threatened By An Obama Presidency?
I'm A Pundit Too ^ | 7/11/2008 | Troy Stouffer

Last Sunday, Reverend Jesse Jackson made some comments to a fellow guest on Fox and Friends while they were waiting to go on the air. What Jackson did not realize, was that his microphone was on and caught his remarks on tape. The “good” Reverend asserted his desire to violently remove certain parts of Senator Obama’s nether regions. He made these comments while discussing the presumptive Democratic nominee’s recent remarks on the black community.

First of all, after decades of making television appearances, how could Jackson not realize that his microphone was on?

Oboma and Jackson would compliment each other.

If Obama is elected President, there will be no profit in the Black Outrage market. Much like some small chain of convenience stores who give overpriced and poor service to their customers howling when a Wal-Mart moves into town, Jesse is upset that his 40 year gravy train will run off the tracks if Obama is elected. I don’t put much weight behind those who think that this is a stunningly well played operation by Jackson to make Obama look like a moderate. I think Jesse is just POed that he may be obsolete in 4 months.

It is my opinion that if the Obamanation is elected WW4 will soon follow. That means EVERYONE is threatened by an Obamanation presidency

You bet he is. The race pimping business is finite. As it stands now, Jesse and Fat Al split the whole scam between them. If Barry be President, he pretty much be chief race pimp but more importantly his lovely and charming wife Michelle become head race Madam. And I can tell you now she looking for a pound of flesh from Jesse for what he say about Barry.

Yes. I thought he would have been much more vocal an opponent during the primaries. He was muzzled and I bet he regrets that decision.

Oh, and this seems relevant now;

Worse yet, blacks might consider conservatism.

The “good” Reverend...

Why does Jesse pretend he's a Reverend? Consider the following question and answer sessions between Geoff Metcalf and 'Shakedown' author Ken Timmerman:

Q: Did he earn the title "The Reverend"?

A: I don't think so, and many of the black preachers I interviewed for "Shakedown" don't believe so either. I describe a two- to three-year process for earning that title. Jesse Jackson got himself ordained two months after Martin Luther King was shot. It was essentially a political ordination, a shotgun ordination. He did not go through the long procedure. He was not licensed to preach, as far as I could determine. I went to the church where he was ordained. He did not go through this two-year process. He never submitted himself to the authority of the church. He has never had a church himself, and he has been accountable to no one.

Q: Did he ever get a degree?

A: He did not. He flunked out of the Chicago Theological Seminary after less than a year. But the good news, I guess, is he was finally awarded an honorary doctorate from that same theological seminary more than 30 years later.

Q: And by the way, who was board of that institution?

A: (laughing) I was getting there. In the year 2000, he was finally given that degree after "Junior" – Jesse Junior, the congressman – was put on the board of the seminary.

It will be hard for Jackson to claim that America is a racist nation when a black man is President.

Is Jesse Jackson threatened or jealous of Obama? Maybe. But the substance of his complaint is that Obama looks down on blacks. IOWs Obama is an elitist snob. Sound familiar?

Obamas call to black men to take responsibility for their own kids clashes with Jesses view that everything is whiteys fault.
I don't recall Jesse complaining when Louis Farrakhan made the same point a few years ago.
