Borrowing from Jesse Jackson

CIAR merely took a page from the Reverend Jesse Jackson's decades-long shakedown techniques wherein he threatens boycotts, then backs when contributions to Jackson organizations appear from the targeted companies. See Shakedown, by Kenneth R. Timmerman for details. CAIR owes Jesse a cut of its take.
