Jackson Jr's Mom: Congressman absent due to "enormous disappointment" not being senator or mayor

Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.’s mother, Jacqueline Jackson, told a Rainbow/PUSH conference Friday that her son has suffered years of “enormous disappointment.”

“I’m not ashamed to say ... he thought he was going to be a senator. He thought he was going to have a chance to run for mayor. And young people don’t bounce back from disappointment like me and my husband,” she said.

Uh . . . . . . mom? If your kid can't handle the "heat" (or everyday life), keep him out of the kitchen!!

America has enough whining babies disappointed that they all didn't get a pony for Christmas, we don't need them in government!!

Send him to his room and keep him there until he gets over his tantrum!!

I have a diff recoil than the rest of the thread to Momma Jack-son speakin' a little truth-to-power:

"I’m not ashamed to say ... he thought he was going to be a senator. He thought he was going to have a chance to run for mayor. And young people don’t bounce back from disappointment like me and my husband,” she said.“We don’t believe a darn thing until we see it,” she said. “You’re going to have to show us. We’re from Missouri. But young people also need to listen. They need to make themselves available to understand many of the illusions and the trinkets that are being dangled in front of their faces."

The combination of the "entitlement" mentality, affirmative action, and the reality the "dogma of equality" sometimes can't be applied to the deficient.

Survival of the fittest can't ever be legislated away.
Criminal cultures or normal cultures. Doesn't matter.

He imagined being the next Barack Obama? And he won his house race.

If it weren't so embarrassing, I would find links to some of his House Floor speeches. I am amazed that he has been allowed to speak at all!
Talk about undisguised African Tribal racism and arrogance and literal non-sense...

No.

But rap stars don't need to.

FYI Jesse RObinson Jackson was Noah Robinson, a profession boxer in his youth.

MO spent enough time in the jj home to be called Sis by the syblings. (Ancestors from same Friends Plantation area)

Noah Robinson, JJ’s half brother is doing life for his involvement with the street gang El Rukn....drugs, male/female prostitution, murder for hire...that type of street gang.

el Rukn had been called Black___________(Several names) Until FerretCON converted them to Islam in mass.

FerretCON hired Rezko the con, who purchase both of the O’s homes to “handle” Cassius Clay with his conversion to Islam.

BO’s community that he “Organized” overlaps el rukn’s territory.

FerretCON is just another guy in the neighborHOOD as is ????
....

Now how does JJJ fits into the scene?

OK, I have to ask: WHO is keeping him from filing papers to run for mayor or launching a Senate bid?

This IS a story, is it not? Surely Rainbow Push and Al Sharpton need to investigate who is keeping this civil rights leader's son ghettoed in a cushy Congressional Representative's position.
