Jessie is so incoherent that he needs to remember to take his meds on time.

There are only two things that matter in the life of Jesse Jackson.

A camera and a microphone.

Why doesn’t Chrisy try to get Michelle Obama on and ask her?

Jackson’s confirmation bias ~~precludes this though~~, attests to his racism, fixed it.

a very tender vulnerability.

O’Reilly used the word ‘lynch’. Sure, but he used it in DEFENSE of Mrs. O. He said he wanted to give her the benefit of doubt on her ‘proud of my country’ comments, and stood against any lynch mob against her. So the Rhyming Reverund twists this into a racial slur? Get serious. To me such a stretch indicates a very tender vulnerability.

Finally got RedLasso to load the video… after five reboots.

It was worth the trouble. JJ was almost as nervous as Obama was about the issue. I’m thinking this room is full of horse crap, and there’s a pony in here somewhere.

You’re dead on target.

The race will all be about race. And you will be a racist if you don’t vote for Obama.

JJ’s “create an atmosphere of danger”…

Yeah, that’s what I’m feeling. But mine is is from the Democrat’s front-runner… not from O’Reilly.

For a moment I thought Matthews was talking to Pat Paulsen–mumbles for president. Remember him?

O’Rielly used the word lynch as many of us use it from time to time. It is in the common parlance, the fact he was referring to a black woman is very likely a coincidence. Jackson’s confirmation bias precludes this though, sad.

He was in Somalia.

Tzetzes on February 27, 2008 at 6:35 PM

Now let’s keep the information straight. Obama was in Kenya when the photo was taken–a northern part of Kenya where Somalis live. There are 40+ tribes in Kenya; ‘Somali’ describes a tribe as well as a nationality. IOW, all Somalis aren’t necessarily citizens of Somalia.

An African costume in his trip over there…

Over there? He was in Somalia. How racist of Matthews to group all together a very large group of peoples from an entire and quite varied continent.

What is up with the comments? It says that there are like 83, and I see that there is maybe 20 to 30.

Maybe Hillary called Chris Matthews to remind him of 2 words:

Hello All,

So whitey or cracker if you prefer, cannot say the n word or lynch? Is that correct? It’s funny because I was watching the oldie channel over the weekend and they had a bunch of western cowboy movies on and guess what happened in most if not all? Some poor whitey got lynched. No black people but in the Ox-Bow Incident they did get a whitey an old guy and a person of latin descent.

So can we say hang ‘em high? I there a white version for the word lynch?

Tanks for playin’ along…

I wish FNC would stop buttering this bozo’s bread and decline to renew its contract with this clown. He adds nothing of value to the national debate. He’s a race hustler, no more and no less. Yet they persist in asking his opinion on everything from international affairs to nuclear energy. It discredits them to treat him seriously.

As much as I appreciate O’Reilly’s work, it pained me to see him coddle JJ last time on his show. Almost serves O’Reilly right that he’d bite him in his arse at the first opportunity. Predictable, if nothing else.

I thought you meant “sleepy beans” came out of JJ’s mouth somewhere in all that unintelligible gibberish. I even listened to the clip again trying to hear it. Sorry.

No way Allah. He’s just getting warmed up in my estimation. If Obama has trouble getting support for something he’s trying to push through its because we are all a bunch or racists. Anybody who critisizes Obama when he falls on his face. They are racist. Obama’s approval ratings hit the dumps. We are ALL a bunch of racists. If anybody objects to ammending the Constitution in order to allow Obama to run for a third term. RACIST!! Republicans stand up to him about anything. All Republicans are Racist. On and on.
