You can't make up stuff better than this! Isn't politics grand?
HURRAH FOR THE DEMOCRATS!
Jesse Jackson's Newest Staff Member
Mel Reynolds
Jesse Jackson has added former Chicago Democrat Congressman Mel to Rainbow/PUSH Coalition's payroll.
Reynolds was among the 176 criminals excused in President Clinton's last-minute forgiveness spree.
Reynolds received a commutation of his six-and-a-half- year federal sentence for 15 convictions of wire fraud, bank fraud, and lies to the Federal Election Commission.
He is more notorious, however, for concurrently serving five years for sleeping with an underage campaign volunteer.
This is a first in American politics: An ex-congressman who had sex with a subordinate. ..won clemency from a president who had sex with a subordinate. ..then was hired by a clergyman who had sex with a subordinate!
His new job?
Ready for this??

IS THIS A GREAT COUNTRY OR WHAT?
And this has what to do with Obama?
Why they both be negro dem-o-crats! They done must be in league...
Well... Jesse wanted to cut Obama's balls off. That seems pretty predatory.
Jesse Jackson’s Rainbow/PUSH Coalition hired the convicted statutory rapist Mel Reynolds back in January 2001:

One day in 1995, Barack Obama went to see his alderman, an influential politician named Toni Preckwinkle, on Chicago’s South Side, where politics had been upended by scandal. Mel Reynolds, a local congressman, was facing charges of sexual assault of a sixteen-year-old campaign volunteer. (He eventually resigned his seat.) The looming vacancy set off a fury of ambition and hustle; several politicians, including a state senator named Alice Palmer, an education expert of modest political skills, prepared to enter the congressional race. Palmer represented Hyde Park—Obama’s neighborhood, a racially integrated, liberal sanctuary—and, if she ran for Congress, she would need a replacement in Springfield, the state capital. Obama at the time was a thirty-three-year-old lawyer, university lecturer, and aspiring office-seeker, and the Palmer seat was what he had in mind when he visited Alderman Preckwinkle.
That's about all I could find about Obama-Reynolds connection.
Bribing with pop-corn to get out of hard place?
Such a Chicagoan 3rd grader thing to do.
You'll need to prove Mel is being paid by the government.
And you'll also have to explain what this has to do with Obama.
Still waiting...
They're all black? Isn't that enough?
This exceeds the stupid level meter, and it's on "nice" mode
No kidding. The fact that Obama showed the world that a black man can become POTUS severely hurts the likes of Jackson, Sharpton, etc. They last part of their beef against whites.

Nothing to do with Obama but the punch line is so sad you have to laugh. Youth counselor.
