D.L. Hughley, Hill Harper Talk Jesse Jackson Flap!

"I think Jesse's gig is to make people victims so he can be the hero," he told "The Inisder."

"People are often snide behind people's backs. Any of us can get caught with the microphone on," he added, alluding to Jackson being unaware during a break in a TV interview that his mike was recording him as he bashed the Democratic presidential candidate.

Most amusing to comedy king D.L. was that Jackson would issue a public apology for simply getting caught speaking his mind.

"I think that the apology was the funniest thing," he said. "Jesse Jackson basically apologized for the microphone being on."

"The Insider" also got "CSI: NY" star Hill Harper's thoughts on the controversy!

Declaring his respect for Jackson but calling his comments "unfortunate," Hill said the bottom line is that Obama likely won't let the controversy faze him: "Worrying about what every person says about him is something that I think any candidate, whether it's Barack [or his competitor John McCain], has to shield themselves from."
