SHOCK: REV. JESSE JACKSON SLAMS OBAMA, WANTS TO 'CUT HIS N**S OUT'... APOLOGIZES FOR 'CRUDE AND HURTFUL COMMENTS' CAUGHT ON TAPE... FOXNEWS WILL PLAY JACKSON TAPE IN ITS ENTIRETY TONIGHT ON 'O'REILLY' 8 PM ET/5 PM PT... DEVELOPING...
Jackson Statement: For any harm or hurt that this hot mic private conversation may have caused, I apologize. My support for Senator Obama_s campaign is wide, deep and unequivocal. I cherish this redemptive and historical moment.
_My appeal was for the moral content of his message to not only deal with the personal and moral responsibility of black males, but to deal with the collective moral responsibility of government and the public policy which would be a corrective action for the lack of good choices that often led to their irresponsibility.
_That was the context of my private conversation and it does not reflect any disparagement on my part for the historic event in which we are involved or my pride in Senator Barack Obama, who is leading it, whom I have supported by crisscrossing this nation in every level of media and audience from the beginning in absolute terms._

This was only a ploy. Oh, and Jessie is such a bad actor. That was so fake. http://www.averagebro.com/2008/07/cyin-case-study-jesse-jackson-channels.html
Jessie thinks he is helping Obama in this very staged spectacle. They must think more Whites will be open to Obama after he is distanced by Jessie (i.e 'Spokesman for Black America').
And on Fox news, no less.  This would be way more believable if Jessie had done this on NBC or such.
Don't believe the hype. Oh, and Rev. Wright a' la Press Club was fake too.

LASHES OBAMA WITH VILE LOW BLOW
By CHARLES HURT, Bureau Chief
UNGODLY: The Rev. Jesse Jackson yesterday apologizes for his "crude" slam against Barack Obama, which was picked up by a mike.
July 10, 2008
WASHINGTON - In a shocking blast at Barack Obama that was caught on tape, the Rev. Jesse Jackson said, "I wanna cut his nuts out."
He made the astonishingly vulgar remark as he accused the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee of giving moral lectures to African-Americans.
"See, Barack [has] been talking down to black people . . . I wanna cut his nuts out," Jackson said.
His whispered comments - accompanied by his hand-miming a cutting motion - were picked up by a live mike before an interview on health care in Fox News Channel's Chicago studio Sunday.
In an effort to blunt the controversy, Jackson apologized publicly at a news conference before the tape aired last night on Bill O'Reilly's "The Factor" show on Fox News Channel.
"It was not a public speech or a declaration," Jackson said at the news conference, although he admitted his language was "regretfully crude" and "hurtful.
"For any harm or hurt that this hot-mike conversation may have caused, I apologize," Jackson said earlier in a statement.
Jackson told The Associated Press he couldn't recall everything he'd said, but couched the remarks as part of a discussion about Obama speaking to black churchgoers.
In such settings, Obama has urged greater emphasis on fatherhood, and most recently told students to stick with school and forget about careers as rap stars or pro basketball players.
Jackson said on the "Fox & Friends" mike that Obama was hurting his relationship with black voters, "that the senator was cutting off his you-know-whats with the black people and black churches."
Jackson told CNN he called the Obama campaign to apologize, and reiterated his support.
"My support for Senator Obama's campaign is wide, deep and unequivocal," he said. "I cherish this redemptive and historical moment."
O'Reilly said last night he had chosen not to air comments that would have been even more damaging to Jackson.
Obama's spokesman Bill Burton said Obama "of course accepts Reverend Jackson's apology."
But the Rev. Al Sharpton admonished Jackson and cautioned against dividing black voters.
Obama "is running for president of all Americans, not just African-Americans," he said. We "must be careful not to segregate Senator Obama and impose some litmus test that is unfair and unproductive."
Even Jesse Jackson Jr., an Obama supporter and congressman from Chicago, condemned his dad's remarks. "I'm deeply outraged and disappointed in Reverend Jackson's reckless statements about Senator Barack Obama," he said.

Can anyone say "jealous" on the part of Mr. Jackson??? |

Jesse's pissed because us [his flock], have jumped ship for Obama.
Put yourself in his shoes, wouldn't YOU be?
I AM glad that he finally got exposed; but, at the same time, I know what it's like to be betrayed by the ones you've LOVED and FOUGHT for your whole life.
EVERY human being experiences a "Lord of the Rings"-style trial at SOME point in their lives. So, this is HIS. |

I think Jesse Jackson betrayed black people himself along time ago by embarassing them every time he says something on TV. |

He betrayed the Civil Rights movement(blacks & whites) or should we say shamed. |
