Did Jesse Jackson suggest Obama be lynched?
Fox News

Posted on 07/09/2008 7:41:08 PM PDT by Recovering_Democrat

Just a general query; when Jesse Jackson said he wanted to cut Obama's nuts off, wasn't he recalling a time when black men were lynched?

I remember reading history and when such terrible events happened, black men were treated in just the way Jesse suggested.

So would it be fair to say Jesse Jackson has done the equivalent of hanging a noose? I can imagine what the press would be doing today if John McCain had said he wanted to cut Obama's nuts off.

Any thoughts?

Just remember: if you’re blac...er, pardon me, African American, then you’re not racist.

John McCain would never say a thing like that.

No.

Here's the video:

and GOT CAUGHT!

Enjoy!

Funny, Obama’s momma was unfit and his white Grandma raised him. Dad took off. Ole Jessie was referring to Obama lecturing blacks on fatherly responsibility.

I just turned 60 two months ago. I can remember actual newspaper reports of such. So can Jesse Jackass.

He is a low class thug, and that is all there is to it.

McPian lacks what Jessie wants to cut off.

He's been feminized and he's too busy apologizing for others and himself on issues.

Jesse Jackson made his comments to help Obama get elected.
It was a phony set up to try and show those whites who “cling to their guns and religion”, that Obama will even fight against race baiters like Jesse. Study the time line. Something like this usually takes three to 7 days to come to a conclusion, yet, amazingly, the whole thing went down in a few hours. Think about it, Jesse Jackson’s own son denounced him. How long does it take to trash your own dad. Two or three days? Not with Jesse Jr.- just a few hours. This is BS- don’t fall for it.

I actually understand Ebonics more than some “black speak”. Some moron thinks “Black Hole” is a racist term, so who knows what anybody says anymore.

His making this statement perhaps reflects an opinion among blacks that Obama is almost like an overseer, selling out to the white man to get ahead.

Look at the essentials: Jackson represents black activism. Here he is creating the appearance of a rift between himself and Obama.

This gives the appearance that Obama is not in the liberal black activist camp. To have Obama appear this way is a political necessity.

Major clues demonstrating this is a fraud: Obama would never “talk down to black people” (unless they were conservative) and he would never be criticized like this by liberal black activists.

I don't think so. I think insiders like Hillary and Jackson are hyperventilating that there is a candidate who doesn't need them to win. They have no more leverage.

Obambi is emasculated by his wife (and daughters are coming right along behind her) so maybe he doesn’t have any.

Again, look at the timeline- this whole thing- from Jesse Sr’s “insults” to Jesse Jr’s denouement, went down in a matter of hours. Things just don’t happen that neat, clean and fast.

If there is any kind of rift between Obama and Jackson, it’s not because Obama is “talking down to black people,” but almost certainly has something to do with Jackson seeking personal power and wealth.

Bill O'Reilly said he had the whole tape and there was much more and much worse things said than the 'nuts' part!

He said he wouldn't embarrass Jackson by releasing more.

Good for you!

I'm tired of the idiots around here who don't realize that even the worst RINO (and McCain is far from that), can be reasoned with and usually votes our way 75 percent of the time. Their pursuit of "perfection" could pave the way for a Lib who votes our way ZERO percent of the time.

WHAT the hell are these people thinking?

And thank you for serving all of us, 2ndDivisionVet.

Maybe it is a set up...Jackson is trying to make Obama look too white as in "talking down to blacks" just before the Michelle tape comes out where she is "talking down to whitey".

Actually I think that is a stretch but it was weird. I think it is pure jealousy on Jesse's part as in he knows an Obama win will make his race baiting business much less lucrative.

Interesting how they can call each other that but woe be the rest of us if we do!

I hope the whole tape comes out. Imagine there is a lot of envy going on in Jackson’s mind right now.

Did you catch the little digging motion Jackson made under the table, as if holding a knife? He actually acts it out on the video.

He also used the N word in reference to Obama, which has yet to be disclosed on-air anywhere (to my knowledge).

Why is Jackson being protected?

Is anyone talking about why two black men are whispering to each other about the uppity black man?

You mean what I posted above about O’Reilly saying he had the whole tape but didn’t want to embarrass Jackson?

Yep, he said it. I hope the whole thing comes out. If O’Reilly has the tape then others do too.

Most don’t know about Michelle having lived in Jackson’s home. I forget about it!
