Today Daylight Saving Time Became “Saving Comrade Bernie” Time

Ahead of Tuesday’s Michigan Democratic Primary, Reverend Jesse “Hymietown” Jackson decided to publicly endorse Comrade Bernie in an effort to blunt Uncle Joe’s strong support in the African-American community.

“As I think you well know, Jesse has been one of the great civil rights leaders in the modern history of this country,” Sanders said Sunday on ABC's This Week.
“What Rev. Jackson understands is that we have to move aggressively to wipe out all forms of racism in this country and we need an economic agenda that speaks to the needs of working people, not just the billionaire class. I think with Rev. Jackson—I think we got a real boost in our campaign,”  he told CNN's State of the Union.
Castro-loving Jackson noted the Biden campaign never asked him for his endorsement, but the Sanders campaign did.
Jackson said the Sanders' campaign responded to his concerns on voting rights, taxes needed on the wealthy, renewing a U.S. Civil Rights Commission, having a single payer health care plan and putting an African-American woman on the 2020 Democratic presidential ticket.
Sanders has also agreed to make sure that black women are in his Cabinet and are at the highest levels throughout his administration should he be elected president.
With Kamala Harris endorsing Uncle Joe today, that puts Comrade Bernie in a bit of pickle.  Now he’ll be forced to put failed gubernatorial candidate Stacey “Tank” Abrams on the ticket.
My, my, my how the worm turns for the hapless Democrats.  Bernie loves him some revolution.  Looks like Milwaukee could be a repeat of the 1968 Democratic National Convention riots.

Now Is The Summer Of Our Discontent

On Saturday August 9, 2014 Ferguson police received a call about a robbery at a convenience store.  The police dispatcher gave a description of the robber and informed the responding officer that the suspect was walking toward the Quick Trip.

At 12:01PM, the officer saw Michael Brown and Dorian Johnson walking along the street where the dispatcher reported the suspects were last seen.  When the officer questioned the suspects, according to the Ferguson Police Department, Brown reached for the officer’s gun.  One shot was fired inside the police car and several other rounds were fired outside the car.

Little else was known for six days except what Dorian Johnson, Brown’s accomplice in the robbery, was telling the media.  Johnson’s description of the confrontation fueled a week of turmoil in Ferguson and an outcry from across the nation when he said his friend "never once attempted to grab for the officer's weapon."  According to Johnson, Officer Wilson said, “I’ll shoot.”  Brown ran putting his hands up in surrender but the officer “kept firing.”  “It was horrible to watch.  It was definitely like being shot like an animal.”

After Ferguson Police Chief Thomas Jackson’s clumsy press conference, the calm that the little town had experienced the day before was shattered.

The family of Michael Brown released a statement saying they are "beyond outraged" by how the information was released in a way to "assassinate the character of their son," tying him to the robbery.

Much has been made of the “militarization” of police in Ferguson, but there were abundant reasons for law enforcement to anticipate the maelstrom that would follow the appearance of Chawn Saddam Kweli, purported “four-star general” of the New Black Panther Party, who had posted “live Battle Reports” on his Facebook and Twitter accounts:
STOP TALKING TO ME ABOUT GOTDAMN MARSHALL LAW AND FEMA COFFINS IF THE PEOPLE BUST BACK FOR STATE SANCTIONED MURDER .. GATDAMMIT .. YOU TALKING LIKE A LOSER IF ANYTHING PREPARE AND IF NEED BE PUT AS MANY AGGRESSORS IN THE COFFINS THEY PICKED OUT FOR YOU IN SELF DEFENSE .. DON'T BE A PUNK IN THIS HOUR THIS IS THE HOUR ALL THE GREATS PROMISED .. AND IF YOU DIE ..DIE LIKE A WARRIOR 
I'LL SEE YOU ON THE GROUND
On Tuesday, August 12th, notorious race baiter Al Sharptongue arrived in St. Louis.  He preceded the arrival of the nation’s other infamous racial agitator, Jesse Jackson, by three days.  With Jackson “on the ground” Sharptongue applauded the release of the officer’s name who was involved in Brown’s death noting that they shouldn’t obscure the fact that there are many more hurdles in the coming days. “We haven’t even had the funeral” for Brown, he said. “What happens when these kids see their friend laying in the casket? I’ve been through this more than one time. We’re not out of the emotions because we all of a sudden had a good night of marching.”

On Friday, mush-mouth Jackson likened the fatal shooting of Michael Brown by a police officer to a “state execution.”

“How many times was he shot?” Jackson asked on MSNBC, in a series of rhetorical questions about Brown. “And where was he shot? And why was he lying in the street for several hours? That was kind of a state execution.”

When self-interested agitators like Sharpton and Jackson rush to the scene of unrest, they do so explicitly to exploit racial sentiment and fan the flames with their malevolent political leadership.

Fault must also be laid squarely at the feet of the race-obsessed press who give these charlatans a platform for their hostilities.  I contend that if the media would refrain from Livestreaming the riots 24/7 and sticking a microphone in the faces of these Black Grievance Industry advocates and training cameras on them they would disappear from sight because the vehicle for spinning Brown’s demise into a business opportunity would also vanish.

The life and teachings of Martin Luther King, Jr. are being rejected at the hands of the Black Grievance Industry Complex; the NAACP, The Congressional Black Caucus, Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow Coalition and Al Sharptongue’s NAN.  We, as a nation, have descended into madness; a predatory culture that radiates a near sociopathic lack of interest in or responsibility for others and mesmerized the illiterate.

Madam Jesse

The Rev. Jesse Jackson unleashed a storm of protest in 1984 when he referred to Jews as “Hymies” and to New York City as “Hymietown.”

In 2001, the “moral and spiritual” adviser to Billy Jeff Clinton during the Lewinsky scandal, was forced to admit that he had maintained a prolonged extramarital affair that resulted in a “love child”

In 2007, Jackson publicly rebuked then-candidate Barack Obama for not taking a stronger position in response to the Jena 6 case. Many felt he went too far when he suggested Obama was “acting like he’s white.”

An open mic was not Jackson’s friend during the 2008 presidential campaign when he was caught muttering that he’d like to “cut his [Obama’s] nuts off” for “talking down to black people.” Despite numerous attempts to walk back his statement, Jackson was left off the DNC convention roster for the first time in decades.

A discrimination complaint was filed with Chicago’s Commission on Human Rights against Jackson and Rainbow PUSH in early 2010 by Tommy R. Bennett, 55, an openly gay Chicago man—a claim which Jackson and Rainbow/PUSH has vehemently denied.
“In the complaint, Bennett describes what he calls ‘demeaning and demoralizing tasks’ that he was asked to perform as part of his duties for PUSH—everything from escorting women to and from Jackson’s hotel room and cleaning up after sexual intercourse, to fetching erectile dysfunction pills for Jackson and, in one instance, being asked to apply ointment to a rash on Jackson’s inner thigh. He was asked to do these things, he says, because of his gender and his sexual orientation.”
In an announcement sent out Tuesday, December 24th, the Reverend compared Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson’s recent comments about African-Americans, gay people and women to comments made by the driver of Rosa Parks’ bus.
"At least the bus driver, who ordered Rosa Parks to surrender her seat to a white person, was following state law,” he said in the release. “Robertson's statements were uttered freely and openly without cover of the law, within a context of what he seemed to believe was ‘white privilege.’”  
Jackson’s human rights group, the Rainbow PUSH Coalition, has demanded meetings with A&E and with Cracker Barrel regarding the two companies’ treatment of Robertson, who stars in the show as the head of a Louisiana family that makes duck calls. 
Jackson’s group, along with LGBT group GLAAD and the National Organization for Women urged A&E to keep Robertson on an indefinite hiatus from the show, which the network started following Robertson’s comments criticizing homosexuality in an interview with GQ magazine. 
Cracker Barrel removed Duck Dynasty items from its shelves and then put them back Sunday after customers protested, according to a Cracker Barrel news release. 
“We respect all individuals’ right to express their beliefs,” the Tennessee-based company’s release states. “We certainly did not mean to have anyone think different.” 
Jackson Sr. and the leaders of the other groups are demanding a sit-down meeting with Cracker Barrel and A&E in the next couple of days. 
“It is unacceptable that a personality who has been given such a large platform would benefit from racist and anti-gay comments,” the group leaders state in the release.
Clearly, Jackson sees an opportunity to extort money under the table from scared organizations.  It’s the hackneyed, yet successful formula for making money and generating political attention that this race pimp and über hypocrite employs.  He spews bigotry for profit.

Jackson is well past his USE BY DATE.  He should get off the stage before the lights dim.

In our highly polarized society, where more and more of our speech is controlled and sanitized, the ersatz outrage of the Reverend Jackson is just a touch ironic.  It’s a little like a cathouse madam extolling the virtues of abstinence.
