Notice the nice, warm and fuzzy touch: "babymom" instead of calling
her what she was ---> JESSE JACKSON'S MISTRESS!

Jesse Jackson's babymom paid by Rainbow board

CHICAGO (AP) -- The Rev. Jesse Jackson's Rainbow-PUSH Coalition
said Friday that it paid $35,000 in "severance pay" to the woman
he had a child with in an extramarital affair.

Board members also voted unanimously not to entertain any thought
of Jackson resigning his presidency of the civil-rights group
because of the affair, said James Meeks, a Chicago pastor who is
second-in-command.

Meeks said the not-for-profit group made payments to Karin
Stanford, former head of the group's Washington office, when she
moved to Los Angeles, where she now lives with her 20-month-old
daughter. Meeks denied reports of other payments to Stanford.

"We do not pay her any monthly compensation," Meeks said. "Number
two, we are not buying her -- nor are we paying for -- a house."

Earlier in the day, Rainbow-PUSH spokesman John Scanlon said
Stanford received the $35,000 in two payments from Rainbow-PUSH
-- $20,000 in moving expenses and a $15,000 advance on a contract
to do consulting for the organization.

Jackson personally pays Stanford $3,000 a month in child support,
he said.

A spokeswoman cut off the news conference where group members
discussed the payments after only a few questions. Meeks said the
organization's finance and budget committee would eventually give
board members a more extensive written report about the $35,000.

He raised questions about the timing of the story's being leaked
to the National Enquirer. He said it appeared to be a deliberate
attempt to silence Jackson's protests of the presidential
election results in Florida.

[ ooooh......CONSPIRACY.....Look who's talking conspiracy now? ]

"We think that there is something awfully suspicious
about the  timing of this 2-year-old story," Meeks said, noting that it
broke three days before Jackson was to help lead a rally Saturday
in Tallahassee, Fla. Meeks said he did not know who could be
behind the alleged plot to silence Jackson.

Rainbow-PUSH officials said it is unlikely that Jackson will
attend the rally.

"We need him," said the Rev. Willie Barrow, co-founder of the
coalition. "We cannot afford to have Rev. Jackson on the
sidelines for an undetermined time."

Jackson released a statement early Thursday about the affair and
child after learning that the Enquirer planned to run a story. In
the statement, he apologized and asked for time with his family
to deal with the matter.

Jackson, 59, and his wife, Jackie, have been married for 38 years
and have five children.

Meeks said the board has agreed to honor Jackson's request for
time away.

Jackson will attend a service at Meeks' Salem Baptist on Sunday
and will also attend Rainbow-PUSH's annual Wall Street conference
in New York next week, Meeks said. The conference is aimed at
increasing minority involvement in business and investing.

Meeks said Jackson got a phone call of support from President
Clinton, whom Jackson counseled after Clinton's affair with
Monica Lewinsky.
