This was long, but I cut and pasted here.
It's very much an article from 'the extreme right'
but it makes a point about Jesse Jackson that
can be discussed here. Who IS Jackson as
opposed to who WAS Jackson.
Example -
A few decades ago, Jesse Jackson told black
America that abortion was killing black people and
that any black person who supported abortion
was 'selling out' to the mass murder of blacks by
the white majority. Now Jesse Jackson supports
abortion. Did he (using his words) 'sell out'?
So .... is Jesse Jackson really a servant of the people,
or is he a self serving opportunist? If he really is just
a self serving opportunist, is it okay to say so or do you
risk being falsely accused of being a racist because the
person who is being called on shaking down is black?
(I think most politicians are self serving opportunists.
Call me cynical ... but the 'public servant' politician is
an endangered species - at least that's what I think).
I think Jesse Jackson had his time, and it has gone by.
I can't take him seriously. There are others in the dem
party who are much more believeable and who seem to
have much more integrity ... Obama and Rep. Ford for
instance. Of course Rev. Jackson (BTW - exactly what
CHURCH is he Rev. of???) can exercise his right to free
speech here in America ... but I wonder who exactly is
still listening to him (and why?)?

Excerpt:
Jackson has been holding rallies in recent days to bring attention to the Ohio voting results, which Jackson claims, are in doubt somehow. In doubt?
George W. Bush won and John Kerry lost, no doubt exists in the minds of rational Americans.
Je$$e Jackson, however, as well as the rest of the far-left are going to attempt to bring into question the legitimacy of the Bush election victory.
They have insulted and demeaned the residents of the red states as stupid, classless, and ignorant. They have labeled these Americans as racists and
hate-mongers. They have threatened to lead the charge to leave America and flee to Canada. They have apologized to the �rest of the world� for
re-electing George W. Bush. They have continued to bash Bush as an evil international criminal, compared him to Hitler, and called him a terrorist.
And they thought they were ready to lead America? When they act like spoiled children who are told, they cannot have a candy bar.
Now Je$$e Jackson is in Ohio stirring up these inane people, telling them what their victim mentality wants to hear. He is telling them there are real
questions about who really won this election when there are not any such questions. He is telling them they were robbed, that their votes were either
not counted or not counted properly.
This, of course, is nothing new for Jackson. He has long made his living off stirring up people and dividing them along racial and political lines.
That the majority of Liberals have yet to catch on to the truth about Je$$e Jackson�s status as a con-artist and shakedown artist is a sad commentary
on their ability to think instead of feel their way through life.
Jackson, of course, knows full well how to play on the emotions of the left. Moreover, he does it very well. He could tell them to grow up and move
on. He could advise them to re-examine why they lost instead of acting as if they have lost their collective minds. However, if Jackson were to do
these things it would negatively affect his favorite nation, Donation.
When Je$$E Jackson says �The integrity of our election process is on trial�, we know what he really means. �Send me more money, I need more money or I
might have to actually work for a living.� It is truly pathetic that a person like this can attain the status Jackson has. He is a liar and a scam
artist who divides people and creates racial tension for personal gains. Yet the media is always there whenever he decides to exploit some new event
or news item.
