Jackson offers support to Chavez

from JoeUser Forums
As usual a dictator bashes the President and America, and a democrat runs to his defense. When will the democratic party learn that people like Jackson are not helping them?


CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- The Rev. Jesse Jackson offered support for Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Sunday, saying a recent call for his assassination was a criminal act and the United States and Venezuela should work out their differences through diplomacy.

The U.S. civil rights leader condemned last week's suggestion by religious broadcaster Pat Robertson that American agents should kill leftist Chavez, calling the conservative commentator's statements "immoral" and "illegal."

Jackson urged U.S. authorities to take action, and said the U.S. government must choose "diplomacy over any threats of sabotage or isolation or assassination."

Jackson, Sharpton et al are such publicity whores that they sometimes let their craving for the spotlight get in the way of the root cause. Like now. Jackson's got no business involving himself in this.
