REV. PETERSON: BUSH OFFICIALS SHOULD REPUDIATE, NOT LEGITIMIZE JESSE JACKSON
BOND (Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny) ^ | 1-10-03 | Ermias Alemayehu

Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, Founder and President of BOND, the Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny, today said he is “disturbed” by news reports that two prominent Bush administration officials are planning to speak at Jesse Jackson’s 6th Annual Rainbow/PUSH Wall Street Project. The officials scheduled to speak are Michael Powell, Chairman of the Federal Communication Commission (FCC), and son of Secretary of State Colin Powell; and Roel Campos, Commissioner of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). According to news reports both are scheduled to appear at the event on January 16th.

Rev. Peterson said, “In the last thirty years, Jackson has proven himself to be a man of poor character and a self-serving thug. Recent examples: In January of 2001, it was discovered that Jackson fathered a love child with his mistress Karin Stanford; he has also been under serious scrutiny for allegedly misusing funds from his nonprofit organizations. Much more has been documented in the scathing book—Shakedown: Exposing The Real Jesse Jackson by Kenneth R. Timmerman.”

Rev. Peterson added, “This administration’s plan to send officials to meet with a discredited ‘civil-rights leader’ is shameful. In the past, Jackson has called President Bush an ‘illegitimate’ President, and has compared the Bush administration to terrorists. The administration is validating Jackson, and they’re sending the wrong message to the American people. How can they [Bush administration] embrace Jackson and yet repudiate Trent Lott? —It doesn’t make sense and it’s wrong!”

BOND is sponsoring the 4th Annual “National Day of Repudiation of Jesse Jackson” on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s Birthday on Monday, January 20, 2003, from 10 am till 12 Noon, in front of Rainbow/PUSH L.A., 1968 West Adams Blvd., Los Angeles, CA. For more information go to www.bondinfo.org

If you agree with the racist Jesse Jackson, what possible reason can you have for criticizing TLBSHOW for being a bigot?

"Repudiate Jesse Jackson"

Now, that is a movement I can willingly support!

More power to you, Rev. Peterson. Jesse Jackson and his ilk must be driven from the public arena. Thank you for leading the charge to discredit him and his racist followers.
