Centanni and Wiig: Jesse Jackson to Middle East…
Broadcasting & Cable’s John M. Higgins writes about this morning’s video event and wraps in news that Jesse Jackson is heading to the Middle East…
Rainbow PUSH Coalition President Rev. Jesse Jackson said Wednesday he plans to make a trip to the Middle East to meet with leaders in Iraq, Syria and Lebanon to push for the release of prisoners, including the Fox News captives.
Jessie Jackson? Maybe he’ll find osama while he’s over there? Hmm…never figured out why any of his bids for president weren’t successful.

I absolutely hate Jesse Jackson, but he has had success in the past with hostage negotiations. If he can get them out, then let him try!

If Jesse goes, the two hostages will ask NOT to be released.

Jesse goes because its got Jesses favorite thing in the world. Face time on camera. This man is a joke.

I would like to see the documentation from any seminary which ordained Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton as “reverend”.
These two clowns are a disgrace.

Jesse may not find the hostages, but he will find every TV camera in the middle east.

What a big joke! This demagogue just cannot say NO to any opportunity he finds to make another splash. Maybe this is another chance to prop up that sagging image. Jackson has no business trying to intervene on behalf of America. He needs to stay in Chicago, where his minions need him much more.

This race hustler hasn’t had much in the way of camera time since his liberal buddy left the Whitehouse. I guess he’ll take what he can get.

I believe that both Jesse and Al have mail order ordinations. I recall reading that somewhere.
