Jesse Jackson Jr - Fulfilling Daddy's legacy

Ah, it was SO good to see that Illinois House member Jesse Jackson, Jr., who was elected riding on the fame (some say infamy) of his father's name, much like Daddy Jackson has lived off the public trough because of his loose association with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Junior this past week voted - now get this - to start impeachment proceedings against GW Bush. But when the issue was brought to the floor, he chickened out.

So, can anyone tell me where Junior stands? On any issue? Other than continuing handouts to other Chicago Democrats? Anyone? Hello?

Has Junior ever held a job that didn't rely on taxpayer money? Has Daddy Jackson? I mean, ever?

Daddy Jackson's interwoven groups apparently receive in the neighborhood of $4 million a year in grants from the federal government, and WHOOPS somehow there was a $4 million "mistake" Daddy's accountants made in the tax returns.

That's one whopping mistake for a guy who says he works for the poor.
