Dear editor,

How long does it take some people to see and understand what a smooth, twisting and fanged snake Jesse Jackson is?

If all would take notice, the only time he does or says anything is when he knows he will be on national TV and in the newspapers.

He never participates in small things (and some are very important), but has to be a focus of interest at some of the largest.

Now, he is making comments, which may hurt Sen. Barack Obama.

Wake up, people! Jesse Jackson is a parasite and is fattening on you. He is slippery — so slippery that he can slide on barbed wire without getting cut. Wake up, people!
