Playing the race card, killing his own

Mark Harden explains why Jesse Jackson's complicity in the Chicago nightclub tragedy should be called what it is- murdering African-Americans.

Jackson played the race card against safety inspectors, claiming that they were racists trying to shut down a successful black business. Now, after those safety violations resulted in the death of 21 club patrons, does Jackson admit he was wrong? Of course not: he's filing a lawsuit against the city and his friend the club owner for allowing the unsafe conditions!

Well, Jackson at least scores points for chutzpah....

It's time to go, Jesse. Perhaps now your constituents will finally see you for what you are- a media whore primarily concerned with your own enrichment and self-aggrandizement. Now you can add "murderer" to that list....
