Default Jesse Jackson Uses N-Word

Well--he's shown his stripes this week. Jesse Jackson at it again....

Fox: Jackson used N-word in crude off-air remarks
By SOPHIA TAREEN, Associated Press Writer
37 minutes ago



CHICAGO - Fox News says the Rev. Jesse Jackson used the N-word during a break in a TV interview where he criticized presidential candidate Barack Obama.

The longtime civil rights leader already came under fire this month for crude off-air comments he made against Obama in what he thought was a private conversation during a taping of a "Fox & Friends" news show.

Now a Fox spokesman says Jackson used the N-word to refer to black people during that taping as he said Obama was talking down to them. Those comments were not aired.

Jackson — who is traveling in Spain — apologized in a statement Wednesday for "hurtful words" but didn't offer specifics.

The N-word comment was first reported by blog TVNewser. Fox declined to release the transcript.?

If Jesse Jackson feels it acceptable to call another black person that word, then I feel within my rights to call him the exact same name.

Lets see how he likes it?
