Can someone explain to me why Jesse Jackson is allowed to talk? First, the guy can't speak proper English. He'll say things like "Barrack be talking down to...." and I want to say "Really? Maybe it's the fact that Obama actually can speak proper English, that has you so rattled. He's not some ignorant African-American."

I actually think Jackson would rather see McCain become President than Obama. I have no reason to believe otherwise. It would give him a platform to still go around complaining about this country. With Obama in office, Jackson will just keep sticking his foot in his mouth; like when he recently used the "n word" and was talking smack about Obama.

Of course, this now has all the talk shows discussing whether or not it's ever appropriate to use the "n word".

Ice Cube, who always sounds like an idiot to me, actually sounded the most intelligent on the subject. He was smiling, and discussing it reasonably. He ended up saying, "It's like a knife. It's good when used to cut food. It's not good when it's used to cut you up."

An analogy I'm sure Jackson understands. After all, I think he'd like to take that knife and use it on part of Obama.

I happened to be watching The View when they had the debate. Now, this show is seriously hard to watch. Barbara Walters has always been a horrible journalist. Whoopi has always been a comedic hero of mine. A brilliant stand-up. A good actress. But this show isn't the best forum for her.

The other black comedian, sounds like she has an IQ around 50. She was once asked whether she thought the Earth was round, and she replied, "I haven't given it any thought."

Those two were saying that the "n word" was okay for blacks to say to each other. Hassleback was saying it shouldn't be, and how it would be confusing to tell a 4-year-old child, "You can't say that word. Oh, but your friend Jerry that's black, he can say it." Whoopi then started saying things like "Do you need me to tell you how to raise your kids?" It got so heated, and Hassleback started to cry. And, I really don't understand how the two women didn't understand her point. It made perfect sense.

If you are using the word in pop culture, songs, movies...as actor Michael Rappaport, a pale Jewish guy says, "I say to some of my friends 'he's my nigga'. It's not offensive." You can't then be offended when people say it that way. Even if they are white.

A perfect example is that nut job Dave Chappelle. He was doing a skit that called for him to repeatedly use that word. A white guy that worked on the show was laughing. Chappelle had a problem with him laughing at it. The guy didn't understand why. Chappelle said it wasn't appropriate for him to laugh. The guy thought....this is a comedy show. I'm laughing at the joke. Isn't that a good thing? Chappelle thought it was insulting for the white crew member to laugh at his use of the word.

So, I guess Chappelle was just doing comedy for a select group of people. Which seems strange. As a kid, I remember Richard Pryor always using the word, and all races laughed. I had the Richard Pryor Live on the Sunset Strip album. I still do. I don't think my parents knew how bad it was. I bet Chappelle is a fan of Pryors. I bet he wouldn't object to Caucasians laughing at Pryor.

I would then ask Chappelle if he laughs at white comedians that joke about how white people can't dance. I might ask Chappelle if he laughed at George Carlin's routine comparing baseball to football. I imagine Chappelle would say "Of course, man. It's a classic." I'd say "Did you ever play professional baseball, or football? If you didn't, don't laugh at that routine. It's offensive to the players that get injured playing those sports, and are now being made fun of by Carlin, for you to be laughing at that."

Jesse Jackson was protesting when Michael Richards used the word. He said we should all boycott the new Seinfeld DVDs that were coming out.

I disagreed about that boycott, because I didn't see how the two made sense. I would've agreed with boycotting any of Richards future stand-up acts, since he wasn't making a joke. He was just using the word in an angry tone (although you then open a can of worms, when you tell comedians what words they can and can't say).

So, I'd love to, instead of hearing Jesse Jackson give us some lame apology...tell us to boycott him. Tell us to boycott any TV station, and all the sponsors, of any show that carries an interview with him.

I'd love to hear other African-Americans come out, and say they are tired of Jesse Jackson always contradicting himself. And saying racist things.

Instead, everyone always sides with whatever race they are part of.

Growing up, my white friends loved Larry Bird. My black friends loved Magic Johnson. It was insane. I loved Magic. His style of play was better. Yet, if it was 10 years earlier, I'd take Pete Maravich over Jo Jo White (who, was actually black).
