srsly jesse? a n-word?

Like D.L. Hughley said. . . “Jesse Jackson is just mad, because he realizes that if Obama wins the presidential race, Jesse Jackson will have to get a real job! . . .

Jesse Jackson should be ashamed of himself. . that’s what’s wrong with us (black people) always hatin’ instead of building each other up!

I’m soooo disgusted with J. Jackson. . .let Obama get his shine.. geez!

DAMN…I REALLY DONT THINK JESSE IS A BAD GUY.WE NEED TO STAND BY OUR BLACK PEOPLE,I MEAN HE MADE A MISTAKE..I JUST DONT GET IT,,BUT I HOPE AND PRAY TO GOD THAT OBAMA WILL BECOME OUR PRESIDENT..COME ON NOW YALL ITS TIME FOR A CHANGE..

GO OBAMA

Am so over Jesse and his crap, why dont he just leave the man alone and find something useful to do, like taking care of his illegitimate kids. I strongly believe that we as black people can at times be our own worst enemies, just take a look at the mess that this so called reverend is creating! People need to recognize Jesse’s mess for what it really is the rantings of a jeallous man with a tainted legacy. Am glad that you guys at concreteloop continue to update us about whats going on political but please am begging you guys dont report about anything Jesse has to say again, I mean its just fueling the entire thing and we all know that what he has to say should be ethe least of Obama’s problems right now. Am so sick of this man.

On another note, am not even worried about Obama’s overseas trip he is going to prove once and for all that he as the best international policies and that he is the consumate diplomat that will get the Iraqi situation under control with apt analysis and honesty. Unlike Bush and trite McCain how seems to think that America as the right to stay in Iraq for 100 years. Not that he is going to live through the first 10 years of that 100. Please!!!!!

As for McCain and is NAACP appearance whatever! And as for him talking about Obama, that is just too random for me to even take him half seriously. Next!

Like Diddy said man, thats a strong case of “BITCHASSNESS”, Ya’ll need to keep up we’re @ a level ORANGE. Keep your kids in the house. BITCHASSNESS is killing our community even on the political level. Damn Jesse, I’m ashamed, Your from the crib(same hometown, Greenville, SC) too, Damn Homeboi!!! NO BITCHASSNESS In 08 GO OBAMA!!! Reminder: WE’RE AT A LEVEL ORANGE……………..

#9: I almost left Jesse out, but I thought, “Nah, people need to know this.” Dude really needs to sit down and shut up.

OKAY WE DO NOT ALL COME FROM POOR NEIGHBORHOODS, DOES ANYONE READ THE SENTIMENT THAT THESE SO CALLED REPUBLICANS ALL APPEAR TO LUMP US IN THE SAME CATEGORY. I AM SO TIRED OF IT, HEARS A KICKER HIRER SOME BLACK PEOPLE WHO WILL HELP YOU IDENTIFY THE ISSUES WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY ITS NOT JUST EDUCATION AND POVERTY. SOME OF US ARE JUST LOOKING FOR THE SAME OPPORTUNITY TO DO WHAT YOU ARE ALLOWED TO DO EVERYDAY, MAKE A HONEST LIVING FEED OUR FAMILY AND RETIRE WELL.
JESUS!!!

Is anyone slightly suspicious of these allegations/revelations about Jesse Jackson…It sounds all too suspect to me…is this man dumb enough to create not only political but social suicide by saying all these things…cutting of his nuts was bad…but all the expletives are a bit too far fetched to me…Additionally the fact that FOX news….yes FOX..I live in London and even I am aware of how much FOZ “loves” black folk…. have refused to release teh tape or the transcript….before you hang him I think more evidence than just the word of a close source/Fox representative is needed!

@ #14 I was kind of skeptic as well. I want to hear these tapes.

If he did infact say what they’re alleging than Jackson is a serious hypocrite because he was one of the main ones attacking NAS for the title of his song, and here you go actually using the word on national tv. Dumbass.

Is it just me or is the font on this post extra small and the numbers for each comment headed right as opposed to the left? Im just curious, my eyes are hurting.

I never had respect for Jesse Jackson to begin with, so this just solidifies my thoughts that he is a rambling idiot. He’s simply envious of Obama. I mean, no one wanted him as President, and when you look at him now…and the things that he’s saying about Obama, thank heavens he didn’t get far enough to do any damage. Hell, this man is supposed to be all “pro-black”, yet when we get the opportunity to have a black man, a well educated, well spoken black man who is about change in office, the real Jesse Jackson comes out. A jealous, hateful man. I think he’s done. I think he’s dug a hole he’ll never be able to climb out, and I’d surely never throw him a rope.

I’m really skeptical about those so called Jesse Jackson comments. The media has been known to create and stretch the truth a lot. Be very aware of who and where you get information from. These days, the truth is hard to find.

What the hell Jesse? He REALLY needs to get somewhere & sit his ass down & shut up! Because dude is really looking & sounding like an idiot right about now.

After these comments by Jesse he really needs to resign. F*cking hipocrite. Let’stalk about his illegitmate child. Adulterer.

jesse jackson is sad….

jesse and rev. al, imakin me want to disown them. thank you for the things you’ve down to help us to this point, but they be takin it to far. we might need to have a racial draft like dave chappelle had to keep them from speakin on our behalf

Sounds to me like Jesse Jackson is jealous because Barack looks like he has a better chance at becoming president than he ever had. Get over it Jesse.

Jessie Jackson wanted a black president he just wanted someone that he could have taken the credit for getting them their. He didn’t want it too be Barak because he told Barak it wasn’t his turn to wait until 2016 it was Hilary’s turn. He are good friends with Hilary and we he couldn’t deliver the black vote he felt that he was loosing his so called power over a community he never had power over in the first place. He and others like him make their money from making black people constantly feel like they are victims while he and his crews go around and take up all the business and get all the corporate deals. Name one thing he has done for black communities. And, he does not like the fact that Barak is telling black people pull yourself up don’t wait for nobody to do it for you do it for yourself. And that cuts into Jessie profit.

The reality of it is Jessie knew that mic was on. He is just having a different kind of reaction that he thouoght he would get. He thought blacks were going to be like yea Jessie you right he is talking down too us and trying too act like he better than everybody,. You know how alot of black people responded to Bill Cosby when he said the exact same thing. But black people are not having it we are starting too realize the only person th at can hold us back are ourselves.

It was reported at Huffington Post that a Fox News producer leaked that Jesse Jackson said that Barack was “telling n*ggers how to behave”. I didn’t know that he referred to Barack as the “n-word” as well. It’s sad, really.

oh my god..I can’t see the words

if dude really did say all that stuff then im really dissapointed,yo thats bitchassness of the worst kind,someone call diddy!

I’m not going to believe anything from Fox until I hear the tapes myself. BLACK PEOPLE, WE ARE DEALING WITH FOX NEWS!!!!!!!!!

There is nothing, they would like more than to see Black people turn on Jesse, Sharpton, etc…..people who have given them hell over the years. Jesse made some mistakes (although I believe Fox left his microphone on purposely), and he has apologized. Get over it. DROP THE OBAMA KOOL-AID and move on. The moment a high profile Black person says something that isn’t ABSOLUTE PRAISE of Obama, Black folk turn on them faster than a lion on a gazelle. Black folks as a whole, had nothing to say when he used the chastisement of Black men to try to garner votes from White Conservatives (Actually Michael Eric Dyson caught it, and wrote a piece about it in Time Magazine).

Obama is not the person he is pretending to be and I am going to be the first to say I told you so.

I think that is the best solution for right now with Michelle Obama, to decrease the risk of more criticism. The media is attacking Obama by getting at his wife because they know how much he loves her. Funny how they won’t provoke McCain or any of the others in the same way.

That is completly out of control!!!! He needs to grow up! It’s a shame to be that Jealous. it’s ridiculous

Awwww Jesse…..Dayum man……That was the last thing we needed from you. I’ve not cared for you for some time now ALREADY…. and now this…. umphf umphf umphf. SMDH.

i personally just think that jesse jackson is just jealous of obama and i dont know why he keeps on saying hes sorry cuz he knows he ment it

STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPP! Black folks, WAKE THE HELL UP! Your Blind support for Obama is eating our community alive and it is making me furious. My fears are coming true day by day. Don’t you people see they want nothing more than to have the black community turn on Jesse Jackson? They are trying to bring them down ONE BY ONE and black folks are eating it up. We are so drunk on Obama we are even believing and trusting FOX NEWS!!!!!

Concreteloop, please post a seperate follow up to this latest story and that Jesse calling Obama a half-breed etc., is a lie. Check out the headline from 2 days ago:

Fox News CEO Denies Jackson/Obama Rumors
Story Highlights

*note* Here is a link to the site for the story from Fox’s CEO………. http://www.newsone.com/ar...ithers-with-obamas-rise-1

Black People, support Obama if you like. Vote for him in November if you like, That is all good. But I sincerely ask that you shake yourselves out of this state, to at least be able to see a bit more clearly. Don’t let your support for Obama blind you to the things that are going on.

VelvetJ:

I’m not bothered by Jesse Jackson’s statements because they were critical of Obama. Jackson as well as any other Black person has every right to disagree with Obama on an issue or anything he says or does. The fact that Obama’s candidacy is historic doesn’t mean that he is above any criticism. However, if Jackson had any issues with what Obama was saying, he should have talked to Obama himself, he had easy access to speak with him because his son Jesse Jackson Jr. is national co-chair of Obama’s Presidential campaign. Going on Fox News of all places and then talking to a reporter when he “thought his mic was off” was a very big mistake. And to use the crude language that he did when referring to Obama and his statements was also a mistake and it was unnecessary.

And anyone who thinks that if Sen. Obama becomes President that all the problems of African Americans will go away is incredibly naive. We all know that racism, discrimination and injustice will still be problems in this country. However, that is not to say that Sen. Obama’s intentions for wanting to be President are not sincere, nor that he will do what he can to address issues concerning not only the Black community, but all Americans regardless of their racial background. I am Black, and I don’t want a Black president who will only serve Black Americans, I want a President who will serve all Americans.

Typo: I meant to say “nor does it mean that he will NOT do what he can to address issues concerning not only the Black community, but all Americans regardless of their racial background.

I thought Jesse “buried ” the N word with Al Sharpton? LOL

jesse jackson’s clearly not a “full breed” himself so i dont know why he would go there…oh well…

I just feel like McCain is VERY late in trying to get the “black vote” it just wont happen.

Jesse, Please Go Somewhere and Sit Your Azz Down!!!

LOL.. Jesse Jackson got that JUDAH complex…
