CNSNews.com) - A black conservative Wednesday criticized Rev. Jesse Jackson for his "late" support in the Terri Schiavo case. Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, founder and president of BOND (Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny), accused Jackson of "exploiting Terri Schiavo for personal gain."
"For Jackson to insert himself in this case in the final hours of Terri's life is the height of desperation. He is using this case to get himself back in the news, just as he has done in the Michael Jackson molestation case," Peterson said in a statement. You don't want to get between Jesse and a TV camera | "Jesse Jackson is an opportunist and has no interest in helping Terri. He is exploiting her plight to push the liberal Democrat's agenda for socialized health care," added Peterson, who pointed out that Jackson used to be pro-life then changed his stance on abortion to "gain favor with the Democratic Party."
"Until Jesse Jackson repents for condoning the culture of death and the killing of millions of black babies in the black women's womb he cannot be trusted," concluded Peterson. |
