Tell me about all those black votes thrown out in the last election (I think it was in Florida, no longer recall). Tell me about the rash of noose hangings round the country.<BR/><BR/>Tell me how Sandra Day O'Connor's Supreme Court justice's ruling in favor of the KKK guy on cross burnings under Bill Clinton's term of office makes a black man more favored to win over a white female.<BR/><BR/>Did I make sense? The judge's decision overturned a 50 year old Virginia ban on cross burnings. That had charges dropped on a guy who burned a cross in a neighbor's yard. The couple were so frightened of KKK they moved.<BR/><BR/>Not sure how she said it "part of their ceremonies and solidity". Gee, if part of mine were sacrificing children with all my buddies that precedent should hold.<BR/><BR/>If Obama were a white woman I would vote for him exactly as he is. That was Steinem's question. Hillary is running on her experience as a liar and a crook.alycecloverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00780458592803844709noreply@blogger.com
