Jesse Jackson Caught on Fox News Blasts Barack Obama For Talking Down to Black People and Saying He Wanted to "Cut His Nuts Off"

Oh lordy. It's only July and things are going crazy with the 2008 Presidential Campaign. This nifty clip that is causing a stir are the comments of Reverend Jesse Jackson. He appeared on the Fox News Channel and prior to the interview, with his mic on, he whispered to another guest, healthcare executive Reid Tuckson, that he though Barack Obama was "talking down to Black people" in the churches and that he wanted to "cut his f*cking nuts off" while making a jabbing gesture with his hand. Ouch! An apology was quickly issued.
“I have great passion for this campaign and traveled across the country … arguing the case for the campaign,” Jackson said. “And this thing I said in a hot-mic statement that’s interpreted as a distraction, I offer apology for that. I don’t want harm or hurt to come to this campaign. It was very private and very much a sound bite -- and a live mike. And so I feel -- I find no comfort in it, I find no joy in it. So I immediately called the senator's campaign to send my statement of apology to repair the harm or hurt that this may have caused his campaign, because I support it unequivocally."”
