Thanks to Bill O'Reilly and the fine people over at Fox News, we no longer need to speculate on the horrible, unthinkable statements that Jesse Jackson made about Barack Obama.

Unfortunately, while genuinely, all around not cool, they're not nearly as bad as I — as a blog-writing person with a lower than average sense of personal morality — was hoping they'd be. Oh, well…

"See, Barack been, um, talking down to black people on this faith based… I wanna cut his nuts off. Barack… he's talking down to black people."

He wants to cut his nuts off?

Jesse Jackson says "nuts"?

I don't know why that surprises me, but it does for some reason. Do you think he uses it in regular conversation, like, "Ah, my nuts are sweaty," or "Hey, don't get that curling iron too close to my nuts," or "I prefer my nuts roasted and salted"?

So, Jesse Jackson did apologize for his moment of idiocy, and if you wanna see that, it's after the jump (because apologies are much less interesting than idiocies).

Fine. Apology. Whatever.

However, you know what he should have been apologizing for? He's entitled to his opinions and his choice of nomenclature for the testes. But you know what he's not entitled to? Being the biggest idiot in the world.

What the fuck was he doing whispering "I wanna cut his nuts off" about Barack Obama while sitting on the fucking Fox News set with a microphone six inches from his mouth?! How retarded do you have to be to do something like that?

Answer: Very.

Seriously, Jesse Jackson, I'd think you'd have learned something about the D.L. after your ill-fated trip to "Hymietown."
