I watched two interviews with Jackson this morning. In both, he turned his 'unfortunate comments' over to 'Obama has been stressing religion-based support and programs and I feel that religion-based programs fall short of meeting the needs of lower-income families and those who have lost their jobs and rather than those programs, our country needs government-based programs.' (Not word for word, but the understanding I garnered from his comments)

>I think what is most interesting is Sharpton's response that it is most unfortunate, blah, blah, blah. Isn't this the guy that normally calls for the heads of anyone who says anything disparaging about blacks? I was in NYC when he was first getting started with the whole Tawana Brawley thing. What an idiot.
