Jesse Jackson's New Staff Member: Mel Reynolds Jesse Jackson has added former Chicago Democrat Congressman Mel Reynolds 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?? YOUTH COUNSELOR IS THIS A GREAT COUNTRY OR WHAT? http://www.snopes.com/politics/sexuality/reynolds.asp
Go to PBPOST.COM and read about the 10 youths breaking into a single mom's project apartment, raping her, forcing her to perform sex acts with her 10 year old boy in a project that every would agree is one of the most violent in the country. Where are black leaders? I t would seem if they can spend all that time crucifying Don Imus, they could come help these poor people. Can you imagine anything so vile? And some of those kids were as young as 14.
