Jackson should return his medal of freedom

1/21/2001

Jesse Jackson, the professional ranter and race baiter, is finally getting what he deserves. Jackson should no longer be considered "reverend," having now been unveiled to be a hypocrite by admitting to having an affair with a PUSH staffer and fathering a child two years ago with a mistress and then having the chutzpah to bring her to the White House to meet the nation's First Sex Addict (Clinton).

In appreciation for Jackson's fanatical support of Clinton, last August Clinton, an admitted perjurer, awarded Jackson the Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor. Jackson should do the right thing and quickly return the Medal of Freedom as he certainly was not worthy of this high honor when it was awarded to him. I guess there will be those who will quickly forgive Jackson without question but if this happened to a white male Republican, the likes of Jackson and Al Sharpton would be all over him with the wrath of God.

Jesse, those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
