Tragedy - with the Rev Jesse Jackson

Jesse Jackson is visiting a primary school in an exclusive suburb of Chicago and drops in on one of the classes.

They are in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher asks the Rev. Jackson if he would like to lead the discussion on the word "tragedy".

So the illustrious leader asks the class for an example of a "tragedy". One little boy stands up and offers: "If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field and a runaway tractor comes along and knocks him dead, that would be a tragedy.

"No," says the Great Jesse Jackson," that would be an accident." A little girl raises her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy." "I'm afraid not," explains the exalted spiritual leader. "That's what we would call a great loss."

The room goes silent. No other children volunteer.

Rev. Jackson searches the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?" Finally at the back of the room a small boy raises his hand. In a quiet voice he says: "If a jet carrying the Rev. Jackson were struck by a missile and blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy."

"Fantastic!" exclaims Jackson, "That's right. And can you tell Me why that would be tragedy?"

"Well," says the boy, "because it probably wouldn't be an accident and it sure wouldn't be a great loss!"

The illustrious "Reverend" Jackson is one of the washed up exploiters of the black community in America. He pushes a message of racism and extorts money from American and Japanese corporations by organizing boycotts unless they meet his demands. He was treated seriously until the "reverend" got busted cheating on his wife and paying off his mistress and paying for her baby so she wouldn't tattle.

I hear that him and Al Gore are fixing to start their own talk show on T.V.
