Racist Emil Jones Disrupts IL Dems in Denver

Barack Obama's mentor is causing trouble in Denver. Emil Jones, the retiring President of the Illinois Sentate, called a fellow Illinois delegate - allegedly - an "Uncle Tom." See folks, if you don't tow the hard party line in the Democrat Party, you're stupid, you're ignorant, and if you're Black you must be an Uncle Tom. Independent thinking will not be tolerated, by Emil Jones or anybody else. ABC7 has this startling report today: One member of the Illinois delegation is causing some controversy. The incident involved a conversation that allegedly occurred between Illinois Senate President Emil Jones, a star supporter of Obama, and Delmarie Cobb, an Illinois delegate and Clinton supporter. Okay, that's the set up. Delmarie Cobb, a Black woman, isn't on her knees bowing to the Obamessiah. She must, in the mind of Emil Jones, be an "Uncle Tom." That, to be blunt, translates to "race traitor," a term that the likes of David Duke frequently use. Cobb claims the two were bantering back and forth, when Jones allegedly called her an 'Uncle Tom,' a derogatory term implying she was betraying the black community. There were three Chicago aldermen who were present when the exchange supposedly took place, but Jones is denying that he ever made the comment. FULL STORY at ABC7-Chicago... Jones can deny all he wants, but it seems there were credible witnesses, according to Cobb: "Last night, I was called an 'Uncle Tom' by Emil Jones in the lobby of the hotel, right in front of [Ald.] Freddrenna Lyle and [Ald.] Leslie Hairston and [Ald.] Latasha Thomas," said Cobb, a member of Clinton's Illinois Steering Committee. "I walked over to him and asked him, 'What did you just call me?'" [Source: NewsBusters] The Chicago Sun-Times has this video of Jones's response to reporters. This will not play well at all with Hillary supporters, and it will not sit well with many Black voters either. For example: Here we go again, another person associated with Barack Obama has managed to call the wrong type of attention to himself. Jones is often referred to as Obama's "political godfather." FULL POST at Black Political Thought... Uncle Tom is a term used by black people to try to convince other black people that working, education, living well, and setting a good example for their children is selling out.
