A Reincarnated Chariot Driver?

Congressman Jesse Jacksn Jr., mad about something.

Maybe he remembers losing his chariot races.

Jesse Jackson Jr. seems to have a few problems with reality:

........[Jackson] was erecting the foundations of a power base, diving into countless local races by endorsing candidates, seeding the region with mayors and other local officials who would be loyal supporters. But he could be mercurial, former associates say. Jackson sometimes boasted that he was a reincarnated Greek chariot driver, [political operative Frank] Coconate said. “I really thought he had a problem with reality,” Coconate said.

Jackson is under federal investigation for allegations that he misused campaign money to decorate his house:

How dismally typical.

Most of those who believe they were around sometime in the past usually claim they were an Egyptian Pharaoh at the very least, or maybe one of Rome's Caesar's... not some lowly rank-and-file chariot driver. That's a lot like claiming you're a reincarnated Manhattan taxi driver. - LOL -

Apparently the man's inner self-image could stand some improvement. He's shooting pretty low for a guy with an ego the size of his.

Keep in mind this guy is one of our Congressmen, endlessly making rules and laws that affect us all.

That's a bit scary.
