‘Stop telling niggers what to do.’
Hoo boy! I’m not getting involved in this! Nosiree!
UPDATE: I’m anticipating outrage about this later from the usual quarters after Dr. Caric runs off to leftyland to squeal, so I’ll just note that I don’t put quotation marks around it, and that if you have a problem with this you might go get a look at this.

Baracky I think mostly just wants white people to think he’s telling black people what to do. Jesse I think is taking Baracky too literally.
You see that gooey looking thing over there? That there’s a tar baby. Stay away from it.
Don Imus is cuttin’ a jig,..er, I mean an Irish folk dance right now.
It would make an interesting poll question is all.
I think Jesse’s just worried because of Baracky’s “you’re gonna have to work” speech.
Jesse’s problem is this: if “n—–s” in this country ever reach the point where they don’t perceive themselves as victims, his gravy train will grind to a halt. He’d have to find honest work. This concept terrifies him.
Jesse Jackson consistently says the most racially devisive crap, evah. I heard him say that, if a white kills a black, it’s riot time, if a black kills a white, it’s death penalty time, and if a black kills a black, it’s Miller time.
I always thought I’d be happier at the downfall of Jesse Jackson. I fear this will benefit Obama in some way, so it isn’t a very sweet victory after all.
I agree with MayBee. This has an ‘Obama is the true racial uniter’ smell to it.
And it’s not a good smell.
Not like bacon.
Mr. Hankey, see?
See? Like that.
Well, that’s the white part of him coming out, Jesse.
Now get a job.
It’s the cartoon problem again, Dan. Matt and Trey were just discounting the future. Whata’ya gonna do when cutout turds smell like construction paper and paste?
Actually, this reminds me of the South Park when Jimmah and Timmah(!) joined the Crips. The more regular characters would ask them what they were doing, and when they explained it, the response was always, “OK, I’m not getting involved in this one. See ya later.”
Jesse’s just jealous. And now, jejune.
Of course, the suppressed, so-bad-we-won’t-air-it part of what he said isn’t a big deal. Well, I don’t think it is — so it probably totally is.
Or pretending to — or soon to be pretending to — if you want to get campaign-y about it. I think he meant it, though not exactly like it first strikes you when you read it. And he’s got a point.
Fortunately for Obama, Jesse will throw himself under the back of the bus for the right price. Too bad for us. His “Yeah, I said that shit” speech would be an eternal monument of awesome.
I think all of this was staged between Jesse and Baracky, just like Baracky planned on disassociating himself from Rev. Wright long before he did so. It seems too damn coincidental that Jesse would go on Fox and start spouting off. Defies reason.
Defies reason.
Prog defies reason. Dog bites man.
Class act, that Jesse.

recall that Jane Hamsher threatened Jeff with a libel suit because Jeff put obvious fake interview satire in quotation marks once. It was sin akin to murder or something she and Merritt said.
Not sure, but isn’t this Jesse saying that Barry looks down on average black folk (i.e. niggers)? I mean, there’s big sweet niggah’s you love, and then there’s niggers that polish your earrings.
Sometimes you just have to call a “spade” a “spade” huh Jesse?
– Ok. This entire thread calls for a group Uber-denounciation. Lets do it from Berkeley, its the only way to be sure….
– (at least no one tipped feets off to the bunnies in the jungle, so there is that.)
Nuts

Maybe but maybe not. I loath Jesse, but try to put yourself in his shoes. You were marching with MLK when Obama was in diapers. You got MLK’s blood on you when he was assassinated. You know what it’s like to have a raging white redneck scream “Kill those niggers!” and mean it. You know segregation. You struggled and struggled. You even ran for president. And then who comes along and claims the Big Prize — a guy who has absolutely no connection to the history you experienced. When you tell him stories about the old days with MLK, etc, he looks at you through distant, condescending eyes. It’s not his story. His mom was white. His dad was a Kenyan of the Somali tribe. His voice carries none of the words or accents that join Chicago blacks to New Orleans blacks. In reality, he has no real gut understanding of blacks’ struggle for equality in America. And why should he? Affirmative Action and political correctness have carpeted the road with roses for him. Young white people love him.
I wouldn’t rule out Jesse stabbing Obama in the back.
The N-word must be some kind of a zombie-noun or something. Didn’t Jesse and Al bury that thing in Detriot a while ago?
I guess Barack will have to stock up on the silver nitrate ot garlic or whatever one needs to fight uber-racist-words-that-won’t-die. The good news is maybe Jesse won’t appear on Fox News anymore and other networks will be shy about having him on.
Or … maybe not.
Good points, SL. I was going to put up a similar comment. The slightest of nits, if you will forgive me: O!‘s got nothing to fear from the good Rev. JJ is a toothless old lion fading into the background and both of them know it. Hence the rage from Jackson. There is no greater fear in politics than…irrelevance.
“There is no greater fear in politics than…irrelevance.”
– Which, all by itself, explains SecProgs.
“I wouldn’t rule out Jesse stabbing Obama in the back.”
What outcome leaves Jackson in the best position come November 6th? I’d say a Clinton win, followed (at a distance) by a McCain landslide. An Obama win takes money out of his (and his kids) pockets. It’s not just Jackson counting up the loss by any means.
Rick, that’s certainly so, but do you really think that there’s any realistic scenario under which Mrs. Clinton could finesse the nomination? I don’t.
Salt Lick – Correct. Barrack is not from the hood. He’s not down with the struggle because he was never part of the struggle. He’s just not authentic.
He is, however, clean and articulate, and that’s still gotta piss off Jesse and Rev. Al every time they hear that repeated.
– theres some evidence even the Left themselves would jetison this election rather than lose the race card. And make no bones about it, that will be the price of victory if Obama wins. If Hillery stages a comeback then they can have their cake and eat it too.
Dan,
Not a realistic one, no, (he said, while looking towards Fitz with his arm around a weeping Tony Rezko’s shoulders). That just leads to “McCain landslide” – and Obama being shoved right off the stage by Clinton trying for her last shot in ’12.
The race hustle is just busted if the election is tight, whether Obama wins or loses. That doesn’t mean that it will come to any kind of screeching halt, it just means that “the man is keeping us down” won’t have the resonance needed to boost the poverty pimp’s (or their slumlord buddies’) income. There’s a lot of dough in those serf’s collars.
It could have been worse. He could have used the word “niggardly”.
– In the mean time, Obama is ducking yet another invitation to a Texas townhall meeting, called by the vets and families of the military. McCain has already accepted.
– Nothing like amplifying your weaknesses at every opportunity.
Someone explain to me just how JJ can stab O! in the back? What political capital does he have these days? Where does he get any leverage against the Messiah? The black community is gaga over The One. Jackson’s got nothin’…and he knows it. If he tried anything, the backlash would be fierce and what’t left of his “career” would be finito.
The race hustle, maybe.
What about McKinney’s electric slide? We haven’t talked about it yet, but that lunatic managed to get the “Green” nomination.
Hahahahahahaha!
Ok, so I like me some tags. Sue me.
The Popularity of the N-Word…
I just wrote this morning how freely lefties like to drop the “n-bomb,” so the timing’s pretty good for the reports suggesting Jesse Jackson used the epithet in his recent controversial “hot mic” attack on Barack Obama……
– That brings up yet another interesting possibility, namely a Convention floor fight between the “civil rights” generation and the young turk Obamasmurfs.
I was thinking of voting for Senator Obama, but then someone mentioned he was black.
“Jesse will throw himself under the back of the bus for the right price”
I love this place.
“His dad was a Kenyan of the Somali tribe.”
Luo tribe.
LuO!
We love you, too, Juliette.
Not only is He everyman and everyword, he’s everypun as well !
Blast.
Baldi — Are you sure Obama doesn’t have a Somali connection? Why did he try on the Somali elder’s garb?
@ #45
Dittos, bl. All barbs aimed at my wayward Junior Senator.
…
Dick Durin and now this.
Illinois owes America an apology.
Dick Dur!n.
I was wondering WTF the Father of the Longbeards had to do with it.
Salt Lick:
He was visiting a Somali (tribal) village in Kenya, doing as the Somalis do.
I know that his dad was a Luo, though, because my father is also.
I really mean it. I love this place because of the humor of most of its denizens.
Yo Dan, you came over left a comment and didn’t even bother to approve my trackback? Ya turkey. ;)
Huh. Well, I don’t have the power to do so, Chuck. That’s up to the admin.
Oh, right, I see. I thought you owned the joint. My bad. I don’t come here everyday. I don’t know who does what around here.
Apologies.
I know that his dad was a Luo, though, because my father is also.
I knew your dad was Luo. I assumed Obama’s Dad was Somali because they are the only predominantly Muslim tribe in Kenya and I knew Obama’s grandfather was a Muslim. Also that Obama attended Muslim school in Indonesia for two years, so that seemed to fit, too.
“I assumed Obama’s Dad was Somali because they are the only predominantly Muslim tribe in Kenya and I knew Obama’s grandfather was a Muslim.”
Anyone can convert/be converted. /Sudan
Obviously, Jesse has seen the writing on the wall, and is thinking of a new career in Rap music.
Fortunately he didn’t refer to them as nappy-headed ho’s. That would have gotten him critizied by all of the white group leaders and tried to get him removed.
Reverend? Are you kidding? Who is this racist asshole???
I guess the title doesnt carry the responsibilities Mr. Jackson Sr. wants the American people to believe he holds. It seems to me that Mr. Jackson is just another opinionated celebrity the media gives an ear to to give credit for the outrageous things he says, which betrays his true feelings, in his actions in regards to issues he feels he is qualified to respond to. Why is the media giving this person the attention they have in his remarks unbecoming of someone who regards himself as a Reverend? Is it because he is of the same color as Obama and they give credance to the outlandish behavior he has displayed in this respect? I wonder how much study he sacrificed for his ten dollar certificate to earn the title “Reverend”.
same guy who went after Imus….
and the “news” aka media is fair and balanced…thats why they edited it out…see oriely squim!! American main stream media is pond scum corporate puppets
Traveling in Spain? Why does a hairlipped, lisping clown who knows nothing about politics, or people or fairness get to travel in Spain while the rest of us are working ourselves crazy just to ‘thurvive’? And he’s not deeply saddened by anything. The only think that might deeply sadden Jesse Jackson would having a 500 pound grand piano fall on him from about 100 feet.
Wow…a brother calling another brother a nigger…go figure! It’s a sad day when the black youth of our time use the very racial slur, in a regular part of their language, that their grandfathers fought and die to be removed from our vocabulary.
where is Rev Al now if it were a white person said there would be a lynch mob lead by Rev,Al so where are you hiding Mr Justice ,lets see how many black are fair noe
What does any of this have to do with Brack Obama? Who cares if Imus, Jesse, or even Bush says something stupid. It wouldn’t be the first time and until I hear it coming out of Obama’s mouth I consider this to be irrelevant to the decision to support Obama. WTF, anybody and their brother can get on the air and look like an idiot. It just represents them and not the guy who in my opinion is more likely to at least do something in the white house that is different. Right about now ANYTHING different is better than where we are.
Do we have an answer to abortion – NO
Do we have an answer to our struggling economy – NO
Do we have an answer as to why the hell we went to or are still fighting this war – NO
What exactly are the issues again. I can’t see through all the crap we’re being fed that is irrelevant….
Obama 08
somebody sounds bitter.
Do we have an answer to abortion – NO
Do we have an answer to our struggling economy – NO
Do we have an answer as to why the hell we went to or are still fighting this war – NO
What are Obama’s “answers” to those questions?
Be specific.
oh! oh! I’ll take a stab…
– it’s legal
– um, ah, CHANGE! and lots of it!
– oh wait, this one would take too long, but probably you could start with the Authorization to use Force that Congress passed. you know, the one Obama didn’t vote for. ;D
answer to second part is that counterinsurgencies generally take about 8 to 10 years on average.
oh, you know what? those were my answers at the end there. sowwy. I think Obama’s answer was “I wouldn’t go there in the first place” which, um, doesn’t really help much.
Do we have an answer to abortion -Kill’em
Do we have an answer to our struggling economy – Tax’em
Do we have an answer as to why the hell we went to or are still fighting this war – Didn’t have to vote present
oh, and UNICORNS!!!
Arugula!!!
Dive!Dive!Dive!
Endive!Endive!Endive!
Well as to Mr. Jackson, perhaps now the ego inflated ,oppurtunistic hatemongering hypocritical, prejudice teaching bigot, will finally be silenced and real people with real values can be heard
This is a outrage He should be fired. Ummm wait what’s his job again? Oh that’s right, B.S er keep up the good work J.J.
Didn’t Jesse have a big old funeral for that word in Detroit?
That was him, right?
Guess it exhumed itself.
I wish they’d just stop using the word, nigger, on themselves. Just stop.
Who cares what this baffoon says. He is irrelevant. Always has been. Jesse and Al are just race baters. No one takes them seriously. These two are the biggest jokes in America.
sickofit made me giggle. I would have SO fallen for you when I was 19.
When you tell him stories about the old days with MLK, etc, he looks at you through distant, condescending eyes
This is the PROBLEM. The Blacks of today act as if they were the ones pickin’ cotton while the whites of today were in the parlor screwing their children! The Blacks are the most prejustice, always have been. They are first ones to scream “Unfair” at the rallies then rob and beat a white man on the way home. GET OVER IT
Lucy – ALL CAPS and prejustice are not good ways to make your point.
“Prejustice”?
I love it when people make up new words.
Look! Jesse Jackson just called all black Americans niggers.
Uh…uh…IRAQ!
Heh. O!
The biggest rascist in America is Jesse Jackson. Of course with him he’s against everybody.
Where’s Sharpton when you need him.
