Illinois State President Emil Jones, Jr., a mentor for presumptive Democratic Nominee Barack Obama, called Chicago Hillary Clinton delegate Delmarie Cobb an "Uncle Tom." That's what Cobb claims, although Jones denies it.
The Fox News Channel interviewed Cobb this morning.

If Jones did say what he said that kind of throws Obama's transcending of race out of the window. Especially if you call a black woman an "Uncle Tom" for supporting a white woman.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah.
ReplyDelete...If Levois allegedly says something that reflects poorly on Marathon Pundit when Marathon Pundit is several hundred miles away...
ReplyDeleteDoes it throw Marathon Pundit out the window too?
I guess now it's ok to assign all the baloney that every single two-bit Republican is spewing about Sen. Obama directly as if McCain was the one handing out "Hussein $3 bills" and the like.
Is this a good time to remind you two rascals that 55% of America has been consistently questioning McCain's "judgment"?
Given that his supporters are acting so childish and apparently throwing his "judgment" out the window in the process it's little wonder... ;)
At least Levois started out with "If" -- half the witnesses say he didn't and the other half say he did. And Cobb's biggest supporter/witness to this is (drumroll, please) her life partner so it's not like she doesn't have an agenda in the matter.
Jones is not, as he tried to claim about Tony Rezko, just "someone I know."
