Chicago Tribune ^ | 12/24/13

Jackson’s group, along with LGBT group GLAAD and the National Organization for Women, urged A&E to keep Robertson on an indefinite hiatus from the show, which the network started following Robertson’s comments criticizing homosexuality in an interview with GQ magazine.

Jackson Sr. and the leaders of the other groups are demanding a sit-down meeting with Cracker Barrel and A&E in the next couple of days.

“It is unacceptable that a personality who has been given such a large platform would benefit from racist and anti-gay comments,” the group leaders state in the release.

I know! And where is this so-called “racist” talk he speaks of? Plus why are gay people so dang special, protected, and to-be-sheltered from any negativity at any expense these days?

Were they happy?

I can't help but notice that people who have regular work, even the very poor, are much happier than those on the welfare dole.

Has anyone called the prison to ask Junior what he thinks about this situation?

Something funny about the libs is that they are the ones who tend to enjoy smut and tell those who don’t to lighten up, stop being a prude, it’s only natural (bodies) and blah, blah, blah. Yet when a conservative uses correct medical terminology of human body parts while expressing an opinion (libs love to be “expressive” when it suits THEM) the libs express outrage, demand meetings, call for boycotts. What utter hypocrites.

Jesse looks for something to be offended by the same way a rat scurries around looking for a piece of cheese. And he will find it because his survival depends on it. Like the rat, he will do the only thing he knows how to do.

The only solution is a big wire thingy attached to a strong spring to snap down on the back of his neck. :o)

Are they saying they’re prudes?

Someone needs to write a play called The Anus Monologues.

How can they complain about that when the front side has its own show?

Jesse, like Obama, hates Christianity, the Constitution, and capitalism. Hates them.

(qualifiers: classical, biblical Christianity...original, intent-interpreted Constitution, and free market (not crony) capitalism)

Heehee. We breakfast at Cracker Barrel fairly frequently and the customers who are black or in your face gay may number about 2% combined. Who do we think Cracker Barrell is afraid of offending the most?

“It is unacceptable that a personality who has been given such a large platform would benefit from racist and anti-gay comments and anti family actions such as having an illegitimate child, promoting unethical behavior that results in one of your children resorting to bribery and spending time in prison” the group leaders state in a release.

We are therefore severing our ties with the pompous, arrogant self-important and self aggrandizing jackwipe Jesse Jackson senior.

Fixed it for them. Reverend my butt.

Jackson, GLAAD and NOW.
Now if there was every a reason to have Robertson back this is it. The chance to see those 3 collective heads exploding at the same time would be terrific!

I see the usual suspects are joining forces, ganging up and piling on.

Was he talking about himself? Seems to fit well. He has done both himself on a large platform.

Since Je$$ie Jack$on no longer believes in the Bible, then he must relinquish the title of Reverend.

So...now it’s racist as well as homophobic. These sad excuses for human beings are losing their steel fisted grip on the lies they sell...In other words, we’re winning!
