Hes a lot taller than i thought... maybe he just has enough gas to make him float? :)
Jackson is a filthy racist bigot.
Ah...I see The Blood is always happy to answer the call...;)
agreed. (ad explicatives)
I found the link announcing the event, but there is no transcript. I'll assume there won't be.

More on the moron, from Ireland Online:
Jackson urges inspiration from Arafat's struggle
11/11/2004 - 14:26:05
Republicans and unionists trying to strike a Northern Ireland peace deal should draw inspiration from Yasser Arafat’s struggle, the Reverend Jesse Jackson claimed today.
As the Palestinian leader’s death triggered a fresh assessment of his achievements, political rivals in Belfast were urged to end their own standoff.
Mr Jackson, the American Civil Rights campaigner, insisted a political settlement in the North would be easier than either Arafat’s challenge or Nelson Mandela’s battle against apartheid in South Africa.
He said: “If the PLO can be recognised as a state in making, surely Sinn Féin and the Democratic Unionists can make that same leap.
“Frankly, they don’t have as far to go as the Palestinians had to go or as South Africa had to go.”
Mr Jackson, who was holding talks with both unionist and nationalist communities during a visit to Belfast, stressed peace was less risky than conflict.
With the IRA believed to be close to an unprecedented disarmament move, the Irish and British governments have stepped up attempts to restore the power-sharing administration in Belfast.
Unionists who walked out of the Stormont Assembly two years ago over an alleged intelligence gathering operation run by the Provisionals are refusing to sit in a cabinet with Sinn Féin until paramilitary weapons are destroyed.
But Dublin and London must also wrestle with a bid by Ian Paisley’s DUP to make big changes to the Good Friday Agreement, including an attempt to have ministers held to account by their colleagues and the 108-member parliament.
Yet Mr Jackson, who twice tried in vain to win his party’s nomination for the US presidential election, issued a message of hope.
“Sometimes these struggles for human dignity are long and drawn out,” he said.
“But ultimately that which is morally right prevails.
“Peace is risky but war is more risky. Peace is worth the risk.
“No matter how difficult it is, it happens if leaders have the courage to seal the deal.”
Even if the deadlock appears unbreakable, Mr Jackson told the political parties to study South Africa’s transformation.
He added: “It was not long ago that Mandela was in jail. It seemed ending apartheid was unrealistic.
“Now Mandela is seen as the ultimate global statesman.”

Jesse Jackass...I love that name...gets his money blackmailing guilty white CEOs about the number of blacks in management and executive positions, or in the case of Anheiser-Busch, the number of black beer franchisees..his sons got a lucrative franchise for all of Chicago after visited the new head Augie Busch IV after the old hardass Augie III refused to even discuss anything with him. He has never had a congregation or an honest job in his life. He's always been a parasite. In Chicago his nickname is the "King of Beers".
Spurgeons "The Blood" right?
The Irish are a race
That God created mad
For all their wars are merry
And all their songs are sad.
"All other races have a culture; the Irish have a psychosis"

I am of Ulster....:)
Another snake has shown up.
"Nothing too extreme can be said about liberals(American leftys) because it's all true." -Ann Coulter
Ann Coulters main aid to america is in exposeing the enemy within on the RIGHT... they hate her worse than the leftys.. the leftys think shes nutz, the faux rightys know shes extremely accurate.. and hate her for it.. most anti-Coulter stuff is from the faux right.. next time you read some "righty" outraged by her, you will then know where they are coming from..
the word Coulter means; a cutting tool (as a knife or sharp disc) that is attached to the beam of a plow, makes a vertical cut in the surface, and permits clean separation and effective covering of the soil and materials being turned under...
I say old sport...Hitlery and Oblama weren't there campaigning yet.. what?
Nope.
Just the Celtic blood...:)
Oh, that should be a treat. In a worldview where "Yassir Arafat has been a great force for peace in the world," I can't wait to hear his gushings about the many and varied "accomplishments" of the IRA.
Why Bush's moral 'mandate' is such a threat to women's rights
11 November 2004
We have been led to believe that George Bush's victory was one for 'values' voters. Well whatever these voters value, they don't think much of women's reproductive rights.
Watching the various television packages coming out of Middle America in recent weeks, that showed these God-fearing, church-going Americans explaining why they were voting for Mr Bush, I was struck by how strongly I felt they were living, not just on another continent, but on another planet.
"Now that values voters have delivered for George Bush, he must deliver for voters," said the Rev D James Kennedy, a broadcast evangelist based in Florida, following the election result. "The defence of innocent unborn human life, the protection of marriage, and the nomination and confirmation of judges who will interpret the constitution, not make law from the bench, must be first priorities come January."
But in Dublin earlier this week, another reverend, this time the well-known human rights campaigner and Democrat supporter Rev Jesse Jackson, made clear his difficulties with this particular brand of morality. "We must have a definition of morals that is authentic - there must be some morality in how you treat people and America . . . These same forces did not see ending slavery as a moral issue. They did not see ending legal segregation as a moral issue. They did not see women's rights as a moral issue. We must fight for a definition of moral that is wholesome and real."
But hey, every voter is entitled to their own view. That's democracy and we saw it in all its glory in the US last week. And carrying around a core belief that Bush voters are fundamentally stupid, coupled with a disdain for religion, is unlikely to progress the liberal cause.
Some on the opposite side are comforting themselves with the hope that this new moral majority will fatally overreach themselves causing the pendulum to swing back. But there's a while to go yet, and Mr Bush's utterance last week that he had gained a lot of political capital in the election and now intended to spend it, certainly caused a shiver to go down my spine - particularly on issues such as women's rights. ...

Heresay is worthless. Next.
