Jealous Jesse Jackson takes aim at Barack Obama’s “nuts”

July 11th, 2008 by Scott Marks

Where does salty Jesse Jackson get his balls big enough to criticize Barack Obama’s nuts?

Before an interview on Sunday’s Fox and Friends Jackson, seemingly unaware that the microphone was hot, whispered to a fellow guest that Obama was “talking down to black people.” In the spirit of a plantation owner, Jackson went on to say that wanted to “cut his nuts off.”

According to the L.A. Times, Jackson’s comments almost went unnoticed. The Times reports, “The scathing remarks first came to the attention of an employee working the overnight shift Sunday, who transcribed the tape as part of training for the network’s ongoing digital conversion. Otherwise, ‘it potentially would have not been discovered,” Bill Shine, Fox News’ senior vice president for programming said Thursday.

Jackson did not ask Fox News to hold back the tape which aired Wednesday night on The O’Reilly Factor. Before Fox even aired his comments, Jackson went on CNN Wednesday afternoon to offer up a preemptive apology.

Jackson wanted to hog the spotlight in the worst way and that’s exactly how he did it.

Perhaps he felt personally maligned after Obama’s Father’s Day speech in which the Presidential hopeful told black churchgoers that a father’s responsibility “doesn’t just end at conception.” Wasn’t it Jackson, who just a few years ago finally admitted to cheating on his wife and fathering a child out of wedlock? Some Reverend!

There is no way that a man who is a media savvy as Jesse Jackson didn’t know the microphones in the Fox studio were live. He wanted the world to know his true feelings about Barack Obama.

Jackson, who ran his 1988 Presidential campaign solely on the basis of racial divisiveness, appears to have taken umbrage with Obama’s attempts at unification.

By politely accepting Jackson’s apology, Obama couldn’t have handled the situation any better. Even red state crackers, quick to observe that all black candidates look alike, would be hard pressed not to pick up on the differences between Obama and Jackson.

Looks like Massuh Jackson is going to have to find a higher hangin’ tree to throw his noose around. Time to put in a call to Al Sharpton!
