Sometimes, the good guys do win one, even in Chicago. Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. Son of famed race mongering poverty pimp The Reverend Jesse Jackson is working on a plea deal with the Federal Government.
Now I knew that Jr. was spending some quality time in a mental ward for various reasons, and that the idiots in his district had just reelected him. I didn’t know that they were looking to toss his crazy ass into jail too. Here are some of the details from CBS Chicago:
A former U.S. attorney representing embattled Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. is negotiating a plea deal with the federal government, CBS 2 has learned. The plea deal would end Jackson’s 17-year career as a congressman representing Chicago’s South Side and suburbs.
Representing? More like looting if you ask me. So what does the deal entail?
The tentative deal includes:
–Jackson resigning for health reasons.
–His pleading guilty to charges involving misuse of campaign funds.
–The congressman’s repayment of any contributions that were converted to personal use, such as home furnishings, improper travel or gifts.
At least some jail time would appear to be inevitable for Jackson, the son of civil-rights icon Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. and spouse of Chicago 7th Ward Ald. Sandi Jackson.
Jackson’s pension for 17 years in Congress would be between 65,000 and $80,000 a year, plus health benefits. But he’s only 47 and won’t be eligible for pension payouts until 62.
Jackson’s pension is also part of the current negotiations.
Now there’s a surprise…not! Of course this nutjob wants to keep his pension. He’s crooked and crazy, not stupid. Well, since he was caught, I guess he is stupid.
If Jackson resigns, as expected, a special election will determine his successor. Jackson himself replaced the disgraced U.S. Rep. Mel Reynolds in 1995.
Looks like the standard Chicago tradition in political successions. The current office holder gets busted and sent to jail, and they have a special election for the next corrupt Chicago office holder. You know what really sickens me? Just how dumb his constituents are. Dumber than a box of rocks doesn’t cover it. Jackson has been missing in action, so to speak, in the house of representatives for most of this year. I’m guessing that he was working on his insanity defense to try and keep his butt out of jail and away from his son to be “Newest best friend and jailhouse husband, Rocko.”
Goodbye and good riddance I say. Hopefully the DA won’t let him keep that pension he so richly does NOT deserve.
Thatisall
