Plug in a microphone and Jesse Jackson is there. As usual, he opens mike, inserts foot. The wishes of what was once a living Human Being were being observed and Jesse reduced it to accusations of "murder" and even worse. Dr. Martin Luther King, I believe, would be ashamed of the way Jesse has conducted himself over the years. This is, I promise, the last I will ever write about Jesse Jackson. To me, he is a very small footnote in history. Many of us (Americans) are starving to death on a daily basis. Many of us lack good medical care. Many of us are homeless. Where's Jesse. Just plug in a microphone or turn-on a TV camera. He will appear with all of the same tired old stuff he's been talking for years (but it better be a Headline case) just to stay in the public eye. My eyes are now closed to Jesse Jackson. Thanks, J. Douglas Garvin

Hey, if you are Jesse Jackson, you've got to go where the cameras are.

My initial reaction was "what took him so long." Then I pondered how a truly cynical, manipulative, diabolical person would plot and plan his appearance for maximum personal benefit, and thought, "of course!" He waited till all the other stars have gone back to their offices (including Tom Dee-lay), and now has achieved what he couldn't have last week. What a despicable, shabby person.

Isn't there anything Jesse Jackson won't do to get his mug on television? Since he is such a moral man did anyone see his "love-child" with him today -- since he is so filled with "family values".

Help like this we didn't need Rich Lowry at National Review Online's The Corner, on Randall Terry: I'm guessing that everytime he opens his mouth on TV support for keeping Terri Schiavo alive drops another couple...

Of course he did. After all, there were whole molecules of dignity still clinging to this, this, this whatever-it-is by now. Can't have that, can we?

Jackson is, certainly, a publicity hound. Having an alleged pedofile, Michael Jackson, on his show last Sunday was insulting. But in this case, I don't see how he is being "race baiting" or how he can be told to "get lost" since he was summoned by Schaivo's parents. The Schindlers seem to be trying to get as many religious nuts as possible to support their cause, with Jesse being the latest.

Geeze. I originally read this as "Michael Jackson" instead of Jesse.

Talk about a painful brain-cramp for am oment there.

Never get between Jesse Jackson and a camera
Never one to let a photo op go untapped, Jesse Jackson is set to meet with Terri Schiavo's parents at the protest outside her hospice this morning. Of course, the unwitting accomplices in the Schiavo protest are oblivious to Jackson's...

When will someone finally tell this tired, race-baiting shakedown artist to get lost?
