Yes, it is probably better to respond when you can actually think reasonably, and express yourself without all of the vitriol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tcali Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Well, seeing as how Jesse despises Obama, I'm not sure it made a difference, if he did tell them. Just because he wants to cut Obama's cojones off doesn't mean he despises him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dean Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Just because he wants to cut Obama's cojones off doesn't mean he despises him. I know a lot of people have been pointing to Jessie's crying at Obama's speech and suggesting that he is a hypocrite for that (because their longstanding feud). Well, Jessie Jackson IS a hypocrite on many levels, but I'm not sure that this is one of those occasions. I can imagine Jackson being totally overwhelmed with emotion, at the thought of the nation electing their first Black President. So, I will save the Jessie Jackson bashing for another time.

Fan in San Diego Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I'm still waiting. Ok Dean I have re-read your posts and understand where you are coming from, where I disagree in your line of thought is that the system keeps minorities down. If you accept a cynical point of view of people I can see where your points come from, but the North won the war! There are more people as evidenced by Obama's election that dont care about the color of your skin and dont keep people down based on color. When hiring choice are made it is by merit. Now having said that, there will always be cases to the contrary, thats just people and nothing you can do about that. But as an entrenched system , no it doesn't exist. By the way, love the stolen car thread, very entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, love the stolen car thread, very entertaining. While I'm not sure how you can't see how the system reinforces long-standing inequalities, and have a hard time believing you really think that hiring/promotion is done by merit alone, I completely agree with the following: "There are more people as evidenced by Obama's election that dont care about the color of your skin and dont keep people down based on color." There has been real progress in the course of my lifetime. The blatant prejudice that was faced by Blacks when I was young, has almost disappeared. (I say "almost" as having lived in the Northeast, SF and LA I thought old school racists were nearly extinct. My experience in Florida has shown me that there are still pockets in the US where it is, apparently, acceptable to use racial epithets in everyday conversation. I think you would be shocked if you heard the stuff I heard, too.) We will see how Obama does as President, but his mere election represents how different of a country we are from where we were as recently as 30 or 40 years ago. As for the car story, the whole story, is even funnier...in a WTF-kind of way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie is an old fashioned street hustler/criminal. His game is civil rights...like Jim Baker's was religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I suspect he was always a hustler, there was a time when Jackson was at least a good/respectable hustler. Before he became a national political figure, he was a pretty effective preacher with a pretty good message, IMO. As he became more well known, and as the lure of politics took hold, he became the Jesse Jackson we all know and despise. I tend to distrust preachers who get involved in politics, and am suspicious of politicians who rhyme excessively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real reason Jesse was crying is that he realizes that he is now irrellevant and won't be able to scam guilty feeling white people out of cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
