Question

What was the comment and apology one the news that Jessie Jackson said and Obama apology?

Answer 1

Jackson was overheard on an open mike after an interview saying that Obama was cutting off his genitalia (he was not this polite, used the terms that you think he did) with his remarks and "lecturing" to black churches.

The uproar in the media is as much about Jackson's crudity of speech as about the sentiment conveyed. It is somewhat unsettling to hear a man who has claim to the honorarium of "Reverend" speak in such a manner. Jackson did neither himself or Obama any favors with his verbal carelesness. He has apologised profusely and reiterated his support for Obama, but you cannot unring a bell.

Answer 2

he said that obama "talks down to blacks" but he didnt eralize that his mike was still on, so everyone heard it

so he apoligized
