politics from the eyes of an ebony momThe National Enquirer is reporting that Jesse Jackson Sr. is over $11,000 behind in his child support for his 12 year old love child. Karin Stanford said she has been unsuccessful in getting the civil rights leader to make his payments on a regular basis. What can you say about a story like this? It is sad to see Jackson now a 70 year old man being not only called a baby daddy, but now a deadbeat dad.

The National Enquirer is reporting that televangelists Paula White and Benny Hinn are romantically involved. In their August 2nd issue they include pictures of them holding hands while in Rome. Both of them have denied the affair, but in light of the John Edwards scandal and the fact that the National Enquirer exposed the affair we can no longer simply dismiss this publication. White is twice-divorced, but Hinn is not yet divorced. “Both Hinn and White said they were in Italy to meet with Vatican officials, traveling independently for respective ministry duties. However, White said, “We were never alone and were in the constant company of staff and other associates.”* “Hinn’s and White’s organizations, along with four others, remain under investigation by Sen. Charles Grassley(R), whose Senate finance committee is trying to determine whether they’ve complied with rules set by the Internal Revenue Service for nonprofit organizations.”* The real issue here is how are they spending the money that the faithful donate every week. Both of them are passionate speakers with followers that love them and make sacrificial gifts to support their respective movements and they don’t want their donations used for romantic interludes. At this point nothing has been proven, but it is definitely worthy of investigation because when you are supported by the public dollars that public is entitled to some answers.

If it’s in the National Enquirer it simply can’t be true. That’s what we used to believe. They tended to exaggerate. Their stories had just enough truth to allow them to skate past libel suits, but they were the first to report that John Edwards had a “lovechild”. The story was initially dismissed, but when all was said and done they were right. Now they are reporting that John Edwards actually hit his terminally ill wife Elizabeth. We simply can’t just dismiss this as nonsense. If he did do this he has finally put the final nail in his political coffin, and more importantly he has shown his meanness might just rival his vanity.
