You'd deny he said it even if you originally reported in the Kansas Star
that he *did*. The statement has been (and remains) directly quoted in
many different sources. What one *cannot* find anywhere is a report
that he never said it, nor what he meant by it. You claim never to
have seen a cite that definitively proves Jackson said any such thing,
yet you previously tried to explain away what he meant by it. If he
never said it, why do you need to explain it?

One of the problems in our society is that racism exists and it
originates from all sides and people, whites, blacks, brown, yellow,
whatever. Unfortunately a few (including Jesse Jackson and Al
Sharpton) have made the issues of racial relationships and conflicts a
means of making a very good living. That's what they do.


No person or entity in politics has had more success being racist than
the Republican Party since the mid-1960s. About all the GOP has these
days is racism and hatred and division.
