Jesse Jackson hits Obama for putting immigrant children first
Don't ya just love it? Which one of these two idiots will call the other a racist first, after all, that's how it works, right? Jackson obviously hates brown people and Obama hates black people.
Racists. Boff 'em.
Quote:The Rev. Jesse Jackson criticized President Obama for putting unaccompanied alien children before Chicago, and argued that the federal government should award the Windy City $2 billion to help combat violence.
“If we can find $4 billion for those children — and we should — we can find $2 billion for Chicago,” Mr. Jackson said, a CBS-affiliated radio station reported Wednesday.
“There are more children involved, and more have been killed, and more have been shot,” he said.
The reverend’s comments come after the White House asked Congress Tuesday for $3.7 billion to help fund programs to deal with the influx of thousands of illegal immigrants crossing the United States’ southern border.
Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel agreed that curbing violence is the city’s top priority, but that Congress, not the president, is to blame for forgetting about Chicago’s children.
“I slightly disagree with the reverend,” Mr. Emanuel told the station. “I wouldn’t put this at the president’s door. I put this at the door of Washington, D.C. This has been a long time that they have stopped investing in our children, and they need to invest in our kids.”

RE: Jesse Jackson hits Obama for putting immigrant children first
How much more $$$ can be invested towards American children? First the Feds decided to help fund school districts plus they are funding poor children via Welfare. I'll agree that we should fund American children & the elderly well before illegal immigrants. But when is there enough money being wasted to fight poverty. Instead of programs like Welfare & WIC, we need to do more to issue grants & loans to poor people to start mom and pops businesses. With businesses being started, at least there can be some sort of income being generated that we don't have to just keep pouring more and more $$$ towards the poor of America.

it's not about investing in American children, it's about investing in Jesse Jackson. That slime ball will weasel his way into any plan to give black Chicago money and siphon off whatever he can.

True, but I compare Clairton to a mini Chicago or Detroit. I've seen the negative effects of Welfare. Welfare keeps Clairton poor, and that pisses me off.

Exactly what types of small business are going to bet set up that will actually be successful, yet alone successful enough to dwindle down welfare and wic?

Does that make Jackson anti-black or anti-Hispanic?

He was definitely standing up for colored people, but I think we all know where his son learned how to launder money, and king jackson would be right back in business.
Having said that, I would much rather see money used on our own citizens than aliens.

Hey, we need this to happen. The worst thing that can happen to the liberal establishment is for Blacks to figure out the Democrats have dumped them for their new project.
Let them tear Obama apart.
Not to mention this is one of the few times Jesse Jackson has a legit complaint.

^^This^^
He shows up and makes public comments at the most opportunistic times to keep his name "relevant" in the media and to promote his "activism" for righteousness and human rights. He's made a hell of a living being an activist for human rights I might add. Maybe he should have spent more time with Jesse Jackson, Jr. on ethics and righteousness since he's spending 30 months in prison for misuse of campaign funds.

RE: Jesse Jackson hits Obama for putting immigrant children first
While being wrong in this case, he does have a point. Think what we could do to eradicate homeless and starving children in America with a 3.7 billion cash infusion. Of course we'd need to keep the Jesse types away from the money...lol
Eradicating homeless starving children in America is being pro-life is it not?

How much of that $3.7 billion cash infusion do you think would go to homeless and starving children, and how much do you think would go to bureaucrats and gatekeepers and administrators?

Just think how much the homeless and jobless would benefit if we stopped flooding the country with poor illegal immigrants to benefit the Democrats.

There are no homeless and starving children in America. There are sufficient programs available to provide shelter and food for every person living here.
