Jackson apologizes for 'crude' Obama remarks

Saw this mentioned in another thread but thought I would post it.

All I can say is Wow! lol

 

Common campaign trick

Let it out, THEN apologise/retract/refute/distance etc etc

Damage gets done, and you continue the coverage. Instead of his minions, Wes Clark, Kerry, etc, this was against Obama by the one who stands to lose the most when racial tensions ease......

You cannot scream RACISM if Obama is elected, can you

 

I thought it was ironic that one of the most viscious replies to "Rev." Mr. Jackson's comments came from ... wait for it ... Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr.

 

Yeah,

Junior didn't seem to thrilled with Senior did he?

 

Jr's lookin for a job in the new administration, lol.
