OK, maybe not, but why is he punishing Jerry Seinfeld, Jason Alexander and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

Ironically, the publicity over Richards' tirade may help spur sales of "Seinfeld: Season 7" on DVD, which Jackson encouraged holiday shoppers to refrain from buying.

Didn't he accept an apology from Michael Richards? Why cut into the earnings of him and the rest of the Seinfeld cast?

God is punishing the Seinfeld bunch through Jackson. :p For being Jews.

Public apologies are useless. No one ever believes you.

Rev. Jackson: Stop being vindictive, it will get us nowhere.

Funny how people only notice Jesse Jackson when he says something that's conveniently aggravating to the public.

Kind of like whatshername the protestor, the one who was the object of Forrest Horn's adoration.

Welcome to the newsmedia. What a surprise.

Richards isn't Jewish.

Very true. It's like trying to answer the question, "Do you still beat your wife?"

Richards isn't Jewish.

Or is he?

Richards isn't Jewish.

Seinfeld is.

That I gathered. However I doubt the big J was sitting there thinking "Hey, lets get the Jews". Man says stupid thing. Man in question is famous for one thing and one thing only (or two, if you count the stupid thing). Is it any suprise that Jesse says boycott the one thing hes linked too?

I figure the majority of people who would buy the DVD are big fans anyway, and probably wouldn't let what Richards said be a factor. After all, the show is called "Seinfeld" and not "Richards" for a reason.

Besides, you don't hear anyone calling for a ban on "UHF." :p

I know, but you see, I screw around on NS a lot. Part of my fun is to use exaggerated thread titles to draw attention.

It's no secret that he hates jews. And he's never tried to hide it really. Granted he's not quite as frothing at the mouth as lewis farrakahan, but he's had his choicer moments regardless.

Maybe he does hate Jews. Maybe he doesn't. I don't know for sure, but he's made some off-color remarks. Maybe Jews should boycott his ministry and his radio show. Wait, that won't work. I demand that Jesse Jackson release a DVD box set so that the Jews can boycott it.

Remarks about Jews
Jackson has been criticized for some of the remarks he has made about Jews and Jewish issues: that Nixon was less attentive to poverty in the U.S. because "four out of five [of Nixon's top advisors] are German Jews and their priorities are on Europe and Asia"; that he was "sick and tired of hearing about the Holocaust"; that "very few Jewish reporters that have the capacity to be objective about Arab affairs"; [7] In addition the Rev. Jesse Jackson had referred to Jews as "Hymies" and to New York City as "Hymietown" in January 1984 during a conversation with a black Washington Post reporter, Milton Coleman. [8].

It works too.

comedian does horrible racist nonsense.

offends lots of people.

leading member of the abused community says dont buy anything with offending comedian in it.

that makes offended community leader a racist. :confused:

only on NS can people turn a simple call for the boycott of a racist comedian into an anti semetic statement. bizarre stuff.

Is there anyone that Jesse Jackson doesn't hate?

Interestingly, the title is accurate. He has some fairly well documented stances against Jews.

But he also fucks around behind his wifes back. Not exactly a man to live your life by.

I don't know... a lot of people might have forgotten about Seinfeld all together, and this latest publicity would have reminded them of the show and inspired them to go buy the DVD.

The same thing happened to me. After seeing 'Snakes on a Plane' I went and bought a DVD of series one of 'Keenan and Kel'...


"AW! Here it goes!"

Maybe Jews should boycott his ministry...

Haha.

PRESS CONFERENCE:
"I, Shlomo Goldstein, hereby declare that I shall not attend any religious congregation held by the Reverend Jackson or his Ministry! Any questions?"
Reporter: "Yes, Mr Goldstein, just one: ZOMGWTF?"

Is there anyone that Jesse Jackson doesn't hate?
I'd say Jesse Jackson, but, then, he does seem determined to make the poor bastard a public laughingstock at every possible opportunity, so I guess not.

Jackson does actually hate Jews.

Did you hear when he referred to NYC as "Hymie Town?"

Jackson's a fucking bigot.

I really wish this Mel Gibson and Cramer stuff didn't come up.

The Simpsons episode with Mel Gibson was one of their best, so I can't hate him, and I just can't bring myself to think Cramer is actually a racist.

Jesse Jackson never made any sense to me:

Seen the end of one episode - and thats it. I find "Curb your enthusiasm" hilarious though.
