Jesse Jackson Sorry For Crude Remark About Obama

His comment was unexpectedly picked up by TV mic. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama has accepted an apology from the Rev. Jesse Jackson for making a crude comment about the candidate that was picked up by an open mic, the Associated Press reports.  "He will continue to speak out about our responsibilities to ourselves and each other, and he of course accepts Rev. Jackson's apology," Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton tells the AP . Jackson was not aware that his microphone was on during a TV break for a Fox News program last Sunday, when was heard criticizing the way he thinks Obama talks to the black community. He also used a slang term in reference to wanting to cut off Obama's testicles. [link]
