Using black America

[zenith-nadir]

I have always hated Jesse Jackson, lothed him in fact. He is a fraud, a huckster a grifter in every sense of the word. He is a con artist who uses extortion and race relations to get rich. While he was "councelling" Clinton regarding the Monica Lewinsky affair he was having an extramarital affair at the same time which resulted in the birth of a daughter. He paid the mother off - Karin Stanford - with funds from Jackson's Citizenship Education Fund. Talk about a scumball. Yet the media still gives him a big wet B.J. every chance they get. And most Americans listen to the B.S. he says, that's how good of a con man he really is. Or look at Sharpton, hell... I only have two words to describe what Sharpton does for a living "Tawana Brawley".

Anyhow I ran across this guy, he's very interesting to say the least. His "gig" is exposing the self-appointed Armani-suit-wearing, chauffeured-limo-driven, first-class-flying black leaders who’ve made long and lucrative careers posing as the mouthpiece of blacks.

Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson
Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson is the most courageous, outspoken critic of the civil-rights establishment in America today. Often referred to as the "antidote to Jesse Jackson", Rev. Peterson is the author of the "National Day of Repudiation of Jesse Jackson" event. Rev. Peterson is also the man behind the National Boycott of the NAACP, believing the organization to be nothing more than a tool of the largely "elite, socialist" Democratic Party.

Damn... I knew I shouldn't have sugar-coated my first post. In my opinion the only time Jesse isn't scamming someone or something is when he is sleeping...and even then I have my doubts.

I too hate Jesse Jackson. He is the modern equivilant of those tribal chiefs that sold off africans to the europeans.

I really, really would like to hate Rev. Al. I cannot. He is very engaging and has the guts to appear with O'Reilly and Stern. Depending how the winds blow, I would not be shocked if he turned Republican.....

Sharpton = laundering drug money, supporting Michael Jackson's 'racist conspiracy' by Sony Music, the Crown Heights riots, Tawana Brawley....that's the best black America can do? Sharpton and Jackson???

I know, I know. OK, I hate him.

What you are seeing is part of the slave mentality. A sort of let's stick together thing. In fairness Regan said the same thing when he characterized the 11th commandment as "thou shalt not speak ill of another Republican" regardless of how big an a$$hole he is (I added the second part, Ronnie didn't say that).


I am shocked that black folks accept the antics of people like Jackson et al and even more shocked that they do not see that liberals like them right where they are. I think that it is changing.

 

[crimresearch]

From Adam Clayton Powell to Willie Herenton, these charlatans find broad popular support for their antics.

Perhaps it is a variant of the Robin Hood mythos, in that they are seen as sticking it to the establishment.

 

[hammegk]

It'll be interesting to see how Barak, Congressman Ford (iirc?), & perhaps a few others play it.

Sharpton is a fraud, but a playa with cojones, and hard to dislike on a personal level.

And I hope the Rev. Jesse Lee gets a bit more airtime nationally. Cosby too had a real message going 'til he stepped on his male appendage.

 

[crimresearch]

Failure to be perfect shouldn't detract from the work and the message of people like Cosby, or MLK Jr....but weeding out the Sharptons, and the Jacksons, would probably help the cause.

Why these charlatans are treated like kings in the community I'll never know. But what even galls me even further is that the media bends over backwards to allow guys like Jesse Jackson on their networks, which only validates them. The networks don't invite Scott Pederson on for marriage advice or Andrew Fastow for investment advice but there's good ol'Jesse giving his 2 cents on every channel about race relations, politics and foreign policy. Truely sickening. Talk about journalistic bankruptcy of the highest order. As soon as I see Jesse on a show or a news program that show or news program loses all journalistic integrity in my opinion. Anyhow...

Sharpton Joins Call for Boycott of KFC

NEW YORK - The Rev. Al Sharpton has joined PETA in calling for a boycott of fast-food chain KFC, in a new TV and radio campaign. Sharpton is urging the black community to join the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals' boycott of the franchise, the animal protection group announced Thursday.

Boycott = extortion in my books. I wonder how many shares of Popeyes Chicken Al's holding...

White america pays far more atttention to jackson than black america. You know these guys are not elected to anything, right?

Duh....really? I thought they were elected leaders of Black America in the national African American elections.

One good joke...

"Reportedly Jackson paid the woman $40,000 cash to move to L.A. where she is living in a $365,000 home and he is paying her $10,000 a month. Apparently, this woman has found the pot of gold at the end of the Rainbow Coalition." —Jay Leno

No. Far from it.

Pop would be Pat Boone, and not Destiny's Child. Rock would never even exist without black music. Fortunately, that's not the case.

Black music sells. And it sells because it's good, not because it's marketable. Which is why Sony would never discriminate against black music. Are you kiddin'? These corporate scumbags, hell-bent on making money - you telling me that they would forego a sure buck to promote some wacko racist philosophy?

Sony doesn't give a ◊◊◊◊ about philosophy. They only have one philosophy: Make money. And black music sells.

They would promote the Martians from "Mars Attacks", if they thought it would sell.

 

[zenith-nadir]

Black music sells.

And that is the reason Sharpton is a scumball. Jackson's album tanked because it sucked. It cost $30 million to produce and it made $19.99. Instead of admitting it sucked Sharpton and Jackson used the race card in press briefings to attack Sony. To me that is the lowest of the low to pit races against each other for publicity and personal gain.

That is why I hate Jackson and Sharpton and that is why I like some of what Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson has to say.

Dunno. If either ran for a serious office their personal financial affairs would be an open book, I suspect that that would not be welcome.

Al lost a judgement to a cop he defamed and has [irony]"dosen't have the money to pay". [/irony]

You can bet your left testicle that the media would love to put hard questions to any number of white polititions but when it come to these modern minstrals they get respectful. Also with that felon Marion Barry in DC. Really amazing.

The funny thing is that black members of congress (Powell excepted) appear pretty good, integrity wise, and you would think that the contrast would serve to lessen the Jackson type influence.

White liberals are to blame too. Why the hell would Kerry share any stage with Sharpton? Votes, I know, but what about integrity?

 

[Shinytop]

Yes, these black politicians are getting away with murder. Sadly it will not change until their constituency sees it for what it is.

But it is disingenuous to discuss the black users of their people without discussing the white ones. Huey Long or Richard Daily or any of the Tamany bosses come to mind of white politicians reelected time after time for caring for their constituents while enriching themselves - and being very blatant about it.

We don't get wholesale prosecution of politicians because the other politicians want to block it lest they be the next target.

It seems that the black politicos have to live the life of jesus in order to be accepted. Any past mistakes will be thrown in their face for eternity. I dont care much for Jesse but id o like Sharpton. At least he tells it like it is and dosent walk the fense like so many Democrats. He has run for Prez a # of times so I believe Al's book are open to the public.

As for why the black back them. Who says they do?

Jesus? Naaaa...I'd settle for not doing things that are illegal under the law such as skimming, extortion, adultry or money laundering....

If we're on the "hate certain black men" meme can we also include Don King?

Hey, you can use the race card to get your ass out of a murder charge. Well, at least in the US. And, if you are rich enough.
