Well, it seems that the other of our two favo-right faux preachers, Jesse “The Extortionist” Jackson has now seen fit to weigh in on the recent little exchange that took place between Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer had with Barry “Almighty” on that Arizona tarmac. In his discussing of the event, Jackson actually went so far as to call Brewer’s finger pointing gesture “the ultimate insult.” Is that not the most hilarious thing you've ever heard? Jackson's scolding of the governor came while speaking at the headquarters of his little money laundering racket, fondly referred to as the Rainbow PUSH Coalition. He even gave out the 800-number to Brewer’s office and urged all who may call to say, “We don’t need her finger,” at least according to a Chicago Sun-Times. Well on that point I guess I have to agree with old Jesse. Because what both he, and any of the little band of misfits who would take it upon themselves to follow Jackson's advice are really in need of, is a big foot up their collective ass.
Jackson is never one to be the least bit shy about calling into question any behavior of Republicans, that can in anyway be perceived as possibly being racist. So to hear him demand that the Republican governor actually apologize for what he called her disgraceful behavior, and to “put her hands in her pocket,” should come as no surprise. Speaking to those who were gathered he asked, “Do you know how insulting it is to put your finger in somebody’s face? Try it with the cameras rolling — she knew the cameras. She knew what she was doing,” Jackson whined. “She was telling him off. She was cutting him down to his size. She must never get away with that.” Get away with what, standing up for herself? Jackson added, “Even George Wallace did not put his finger in Dr. King’s face.” Maybe someone should tell old Jesse that if Barry hadn’t wanted a finger poked in his smug face, maybe he should stop behaving like the arrogant asshole that he is. Just a thought.
Oh but Jackson was far from being done, as he went on to say, “It’s time to fight back, it’s time to stand up. Come November, we’ll point our finger [at the voting booths]. Point your finger, tell Ms. Brewer, ‘Keep your finger in your pocket.’” What a crock! I think old Jesse gives himself way too much credit regarding his power to persuade. Now granted, Old Jesse may still have some sway over a devoted, and sizable, following among those looking to get as much "free" stuff from the government as they can, so he can always count on those who form the parasite class to continue to buy into his tripe. But beyond that unique little segment of our society, I think his audience is shrinking. People have seen how he has extorted businesses over the years and how he has managed to make himself quite rich doing so. He continues to take advantage of those whom he so adamantly claims to defend. Far from it, they actually a resource which Jackson only exploits to enrich himself.
And as has been endlessly discussed, and that we should all know about by now, the event that seems to have Jesse's feathers a little ruffled involves the "meeting between Gov. Brewer and Barry after his plane landed in Arizona. She said she handed the president a handwritten letter, the two spoke and at one point she pointed her finger at him. “He was a little disturbed about my book, ‘Scorpions for Breakfast,’” Brewer told a reporter after the incident, adding that Barry felt she hadn’t “treated him cordially.” In an interview with Diane Sawyer, Barry, of course, denied the encounter with Brewer was “tense.” He said, “I think it’s always good publicity for a Republican if they’re in an argument with me.” Adding, “But this was really not a big deal. She wanted to give me a letter, asking for a meeting. And I said, ‘We’d be happy to meet.’ When given option of whom to believe, Barry or anybody else, I'll always go with anyone else, since we know Barry will lie about anything.
This is always the way it is with these race-baiting clowns like Jackson and Sharpton. The very plain fact of the matter is that if anyone's behavior needs to be called into question, it is the continuing despicable behavior of these two supposed men of God, who go around preaching nothing but the most vile form of hate, and for no other reason than for their own personal gain. They always feel compelled to inject racism into areas or events, where none exists, all in an attempt to provide, for themselves, some level of relevance. Their corrosive and toxic rhetoric really serves no useful purpose other than to line their own pockets with plenty of ill gotten gain. They cheerfully seize upon any opportunity that they see as affording them even the slightest opportunity to cry racism. They are society's slime and they are insidious in the way they go about working to divide people along racial lines and actually work to foment racial hatred. They are bigots of a most destructive order.
