Jesse Jackson Calls Darrell Issa A “Racist” For Cutting Off Cummings During IRS Heari
Whoa, whoa, whoa, Jesse Jackson playing the race card? . . . You don’t see that every day, no, wait, yes you do. Dingy Harry and his Dems have run roughshod over the Republicans in the Senate and they get a little taste of it in the House and scream like stuck pigs.

It's bad when you have to ask people if they agree with you... It's like looking at one guy and saying "We're gonna kick your ass!" and then turning to your friends behind you and saying, "Right guys?"

Jesse Jackson's loathing of white people is racist. Oh and BTW, Jesse Jackson Jr. is a convicted felon, still in prison, IIRC, whom you raised to be a race baiter just like you.

You gotta hand it to him. With no other marketable skills besides a big mouth, Jesse Jackson has managed to keep himself in the media for 45 years now. Forty-five years!
The liberal journalist/pundit Jack Germond had some very illuminating things to say about Jackson in his book "Fat Man in a Middle Seat: Forty Years of Covering Politics". Great book.

I agree. Jesse is becoming more and more irrelevant and that doesn't sit well with him. To compensate, he throws out the "racist" word every now and then to get some pub.

I don't know where you folks live, but if Jesse came to any inner city, he would draw a huge crowd. And, that's probably the problem.

So.
Doesn't change the fact that he quite often says things that don't end up helping who he's trying to help.

He's been doing that for a long time now. But, the point is that he is relevant and popular amongst the people he claims to want to aid.

Jesse Jackson should spent more time talking about Elijah Cummings nephew (who got shot in the face @ ODU selling drugs) and less time complaining about false flag race issues.
Give the black man a leg up, Jesse.
Give the black man a goal in life Jesse.
Give the black man something to work towards Jesse.... not a model to keep blaming the white man.

This.
And the same goes for most examples of "homophobia", various crimes committed by the "Religious Right", etc., etc., etc.

There was nothing racist about it. That he wouldn't let him speak however proves that he wants the proceedings to be one sided.

The hearing had been adjourned before Cummings spoke up.
He had his chance to speak.

Not quite...no one, certainly not Cummings, was expecting Issa to just gavel it and run. He really no chance to speak up. He immediately started asking about procedures so he could make his statement and Issa just cut him off like a spoiled little kid who didn't get his way.

That may be how you feel, but as Pharaoh said - Jesse still has a constituency that is interested in what he says. What's ironic is that he leads them to the party that wants them kept on the plantation.

"as Pharaoh said" -- I thought you were about to quote a Bible verse.

Seriously, Cummings was out of order. He was yielded the floor for a question and chose to give a statement. The statement period was before the witness testimony. And yes, the chair has the right to end the proceeding without asking Cummings. Just like in the Senate, Reid has the right to allow absolutely no amendments or legislation from Republicans (but you don't seem to think that is so bad). Regardless, Cummings had no "right" to speak and he was out of order. Maybe he should have made his out of order speech to the press afterwards. But back to Issa. Was it nice what he did? No. Was it within the rules? Yes.

The only time this MOFO ever opens his piehole is to call someone a racist. He needs to look the fck in the mirror.
