Jesse Jackson "i want to cut his [testicles] off", The controversy continues over the Rev. Jesse Jackson’s crude disparagement of Sen. Barack Obama that was caught on a live microphone earlier this week.Aside from those who demand that Fox News air the rest of the remarks Jackson made, a separate debate has erupted over exactly what Jackson said in the footage that the cable news network did run.

The civil rights leader drew headlines after Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly on Wednesday showed a clip of Jackson saying that Obama was “talking down to black people,” adding that he wanted to “cut his nuts off." He made a jabbing gesture with his hand, just to emphasize the point.

Except some heard it as “cut his nuts out.” (Emphasis added.)

The reverend then added: "I want to cut his **** off."
