Jesse Jackson Showing What An Ass He Is
The real issue with Jesse Jackson’s crude comments isn’t that the “minister” uttered him. Anyone who has followed Jackson knows this is just his true character popping through the persona that he tries to project. It’s that Jackson actually took offense at what Obama said.
Obama in a speech last month on Father’s Day suggested that African-American fathers needed to take more responsibility for their children - a point made by the entertainer Bill Cosby and others. That line of argument has rankled those on the left including Jackson, who want to more strongly hold government policies to account for the impoverishment of African-American families.
That’s right according to Jackson the fault of deadbeat dads is the government not the dads or the unwed mothers.
People can question Obama on several grounds but putting the responsibility for children growing up without fathers squarely on the shoulders of the fathers is as accurate as one can get. Even the far left humor blog, HelloRocky.com, notes: “Rev. Jackson’s comments are just the ramblings of a frustrated old whiner, himself politically neutered and ideologically impotent. “ How impotent? For that we’d have to ask Margo Kidder.
