Oh Jesse...


Jesse Jackson on Wednesday made some comments about the Democratic Presidential nominee Barack Obama that are beyond vulgar for a so-called "reverend." Jackson was having what he thought was a private conversation on the Fox News set about Obama's Father's Day speech in which he criticized absentee fathers. It turns out that his microphone was still on and everything he was saying was being recorded.

After saying that Obama was "talking down to Black people" he also said, "I want to cut his nuts off." Whoa. See the video for yourself:



See I think the dude he was talking to knew that Jackson's mic was still hot because he barely even had a reaction. It's like he didn't wanna say anything because he knew it was being recorded. Fox News is definitely grimey for both recording and then airing it, but I can't really blame them. It's definitely newsworthy.

And as always, contributors on ZAZZLE were quick to memorialize the incident with the following products:





Not only is Barack Obama being constantly attacked by John McCain and the rest of the Republican party, but now it's also people within his own party who have actually pledged their support for him? I give him mad props for holding it all together and having a fantastic campaign. Only 6 more months until his first day (January 20, 2009)...
