"...young people don’t bounce back from disappointments like me and my husband"
DeGaulle of this ghetto trash!
This guy has essentially had everything handed to me because of the race baiting tactics of his father. Now he wants sympathy because he wasn’t given more? Pathetic.
Yeah, the nepotism only got him to the level of congressman. He thought the nepotism was going to get him to the level of senator or mayor. Poor baby. Perhaps he should live among those of us who advance (or not) according to merit rather than who we’re related to.
"...young people don’t bounce back from disappointments like me and my husband"
Young people? This grifter is 46 years old, not old but not young either. He's old enough to be mature enough to handle lifes up's and down's. He's been a US Representive since 1995 at an average salary of $170,000 per year, not including the perks and bribes that are not reported every year.
His wife Sandi has been on the Chicago City Council since 2007 at an average salary of $110,00 per year, not including perks and bribes.
So - a combined household income of about $280,000 per year (not including perks and bribes) all paid for with taxpayer dollars and - this guy isnt mature enough to bounce back from disappointments? Well then - I say you're not mature enough to serve the citizens of Chicago and, the United States and therefore should resign.
Call me, speechless...well, nearly.
Classic case here of Mommy-give-boy-baby-teaty.
Utterly dispicable thinking here.
I’m with you, I just can’t stop crying. s/off
Is this another example of giving a trophy to all the losers too so we won’t, gasp, hurt their self esteem?
I'm sure Jesse Sr. was a disappointment to him. Most children don't want to admit their father is a shakedown grifter.
“My son, is unwell, and he needs a moment to heal. And I ask you to pray for me without cease. Do for me what I’ve done for you. I want you to respect that. Give us a moment. Most of all for him.”
I don’t know if this was quoted out of context in the article or not, but what in the hell is this woman babbling about? Pray for her “without cease”... indeed.
Oh fiddle dee dee and somebody call the whaaamulance! People are just about as happy as they make their mind up to be. Change your outlook, change your life.
I have a feeling Jr. like his father was never held accountable for anything he did
When I read that Jesse Jackson, Jr. has had years and years of disappointment, I feel oddly pleased; although the agenda marches on at break-neck speed and he should be happy.
Jesse Jackson Jr has affirmative action psychosis. Something all minority children have to look forward to if it’s up to liberals.
Well...well....well? This is interesting. IMO, he is about to be busted on something BIG and his mental disorder is going to be his defense and cover. Now, I’ll just sit back and wait for his dirty little secrets to become public. My guess....Blago is singing like a bird, now that he is caged or the new book of Blagojevich’s brother perhaps?
Just wow. BTW I’ve spent some very good times on the Fox.
Poor Jackson Jr., your conscience must be getting to you, how does it feel to be a racist, having never attained any real accomplishments, only having extorted others with the help of your father, only judging others based on the color of their skin rather than the content of their character, damn, sucks to be you! Oh well Jackson Jr., just so you know, your father is getting old, but you’re young, his message is as irelevant as is his career, but you, there is still time to change the road you’re on, so, I just want to let you know, a little secret as it were, it’s better to go one’s entire life in fear of God and have it turn out to be a lie, than to have it end up being true and spend eternity in hell! You see, Martin Luther King Jr., he was a great man, he fought for something that he knew was right, a fight worth fighting. However, you and your father, your fight, well, it has only led to more hatred and division because you judge people based on their skin color rather than the content of their character; also, you want money for it, so you fuel hatred so as to receive more money, that’s wrong. On the other hand, Martin Luther King Jr., his fight made us all stop and think about one’s character and how silly racism is, that Sir, in and of itself, that is a fight worthy of heaven, you and your father’s fight, it’s worthy of hell!
Gee wiz, too bad, this is so sad.
Those nasty Skittles will eat a guys brain.
