Jesse Jackson is drinking some serious haterade
In a wonderful tale of lunacy, Jesse Jackson has been quoted by a conservative columnist, Amir Taheri, as saying:
Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades remain strong, they’ll lose a great deal of their clout when Barack Obama enters the White House.
Barack Obama’s campaign responded with this:
Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. is not an adviser to the Obama campaign and is therefore in no position to interpret or share Barack Obama’s views on Israel and foreign policy. As he has made clear throughout his career and throughout this campaign, Barack Obama has a fundamental commitment to a strong U.S.-Israel relationship, and he is advised by people like Dennis Ross, Daniel Kurtzer, Rep. Robert Wexler, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and Senator Joe Biden who share that commitment. As President, he will ensure that Israel can defend itself from every threat it faces, stand with Israel in its quest for a secure peace with its neighbors, and use all elements of American power to end Iran’s illicit nuclear program. No false charges can change Barack Obama’s unshakable commitment to Israel’s security.
And of course the McCain camp has come out with their response painting Obama as a hater of Israel.
According to a prominent Democratic supporter of Barack Obama, the ‘Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades’ will ‘lose a great deal of their clout when Barack Obama enters the White House.’ It should not surprise anyone that Obama’s supporters see what others, from the terrorist group Hamas to Iranian President Ahmadinejad, have seen: an Obama presidency would bring real change to America’s policy of support for Israel. Barack Obama has claimed that nobody has suffered more than the Palestinians, praised a former spokesman of a Palestinian terrorist group for reminding him of his own ‘blind spots’ and ‘biases,’ and told the New York Times that Hamas and Hezbollah have ‘legitimate claims.’ Barack Obama expressed support for Jerusalem being the undivided capital of Israel and switched his position 24 hours later in the face of criticism from Palestinians. Barack Obama has said it is a ‘disgrace’ that the United States has not met unconditionally with leaders committed to Israel’s destruction. Now, Barack Obama claims to be a strong supporter of Israel but his supporters — here and abroad — know better.
This has to be the most classic display of haterade ever! Jesse Jackson was the same guy who said that he would cut the nuts off of Obama, and now he is trying to sabotage the guy’s lead with crap like this? Has Jesse Jackson decided that he is supposed to be the first black president? What a fricken hater. Seriously, Mr. Jackson, if you had a chance at being president you wouldn’t have been crushed like you were. Also, Mr. Jackson, your credibility is seriously in the tank. I for one am never listening to you speak about anything without first saying, “This dumb ass again?”
