Well it would appear that the Reverend Jesse Jackson was a guest on fox and friends this past weekend and papa bear Bill O'Reilly took it upon himself to leak this wonderful tape to the public. Rev. Jackson clearly states that he wants to cut off Senator Obama's nuts for some statements he made on fathers day. I just don't understand the problem. ( Read more... )

Jesse Jackson along with the rest of the far left are a scourge upon the democratic party. He can kiss my ass along with the rest of the black nationalist ire.

And Bill Orally can kiss my white ass.

Obama or nobody 08.

How far has the media fallen down on the job when FOX NEWS ends up being the voice of reason????

The networks and pro-Obama cable outlets didn't even TOUCH this scandal. Fact is, Obama is alienating the black community and a lot of black civil rights leaders are realizing that they've been HAD by a wink and a nod from Obama.

Obama is black when he needs black votes. Don't believe me? Go to You Tube and watch Obama's golly gee willikers speeches in South Dakota, Montana and Oregon...then check out his fire and brimstone "brotha" speeches in the deep South.

This election has become a joke because the American media couldn't keep their hands out of the underpants of US politics...as if they didn't learn their lesson in 2000 when they gave GW Bush the same red carpet to the White House as they're giving Obama RIGHT NOW.

Its sickening.

The only thing I learned from the 2000 election is that ratings are the only thing that matter. This election is clearly on par with a Benny Hill sketch where everyone is running around with their pants around their ankles. Although Bill-O single handedly leaked this video, CNN and MSNBC are just as guilty for milking it for all its rating goodness.

As far as Obama goes, he's just playing the media game as any other candidate would. The only difference here is that he himself is black. Granted he may be using this to his advantage but he's quite possibly more in touch with the black community than any other candidate to date.

People who have known Obama for 20 years...black people are coming out of the woodwork to tell America that Obama is NOT in touch with, aware of or respectful of the black community.

Jesse Jackson is just the latest. They'll keep coming.

Obama = O-phony

I understand the point you're trying to make here, but the truth is that between the two candidates running for office one's policies clearly leave out the black community and the other while out of touch leaves some room for change.

I can make a guarantee that if McCain is elected he will not want to help or even sit and listen to the problems of the black community. Remember social policy isn't McCain's strongest suit.

And if you really want to sit here and say that Barack Obama is exploiting the fact that he's half African American by giving out "Terrorist Fist Bumps" and acting hip with the youth. Then do yourself and the rest of the country a favor by not voting in November.

No candidate is perfect, but if you're going to vote. Vote for the lesser of two evils.
