(AXcess News) Washington - The House Judiciary Committee will be schooled about the Jena Six incident and youth hate crimes Tuesday.

Also scheduled to testify Tuesday are the Rev. Al Sharpton; Donald Washington, U.S. attorney for the Western District of Louisiana; Lisa Krigsten, of the U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division; and the Rev. Brian Moran, pastor of the Jena Antioch Baptist Church and president of Jena’s National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
They’re trying to influence the Louisiana elections on Saturday.
Give me a friggin’ break already. What they should discuss are the college students executed by illegals in NJ.
BTW Bell, back in jail on a previous charge.
I don’t think Bobby will get 50.01% in the primary.
If not, who do you think will make the runoff?
yeah, you know the left is trying to cover up something when they start trotting out “hate crimes.” Thinking of that bullsh@t up at Columbia just now...the NYC Press picked it up in unison...makes me wonder what was realling going on that they weren’t reporting about last week...
Well that is good news. Are they going to investigate all of the black on white crimes that never get reported as ‘hate’ crimes?
Georges was endorsed by Nagin today and Georges is aiming for the black vote.
Conyers, et al.
Yes and perhaps.
The Nagin endorsement does not seem to make any sense for any body.
Yes he is and it will help him in the Welfare State of Louisiana.
A bit off-topic, but has the Columbia noose story been updated at all since the surveillance tapes were turned over?
I am now assuming that the US has no real problems if a major committee of the Congress can spend its time contemplating this trivial non-event.
Lousiana: Honduras with better weather.
I think Bobby will make it. None of the other candidates is particularly popular among blacks so their turnout will be depressed. Also some polls show Bobby drawing as much as 20% of the black vote which is double or more of the typical draw for a Republican in a statewide race there. In New Orleans and its immediate environs (the State's biggest liberal stronghold) the population is still significantly lower since Katrina and the ones remaining are more conservative on average than before and are in a mood for change as well. Bobby has been steadily polling in the high 40s lately, the whole rest of the field combines for less than 30% and there are over 20% undecided/decline to state. Bobby's top three opponents are at 7-9% each so he's beating each of them at least 5:1. If Bobby gets one third of the undecideds he clinches easily. Geaux Bobby!
Hot public policy!
Cold moral truth!
C'mon Bobby!
Piyush! Piyush! Piyush!
And Bobby will vote to override the SCHIPS Veto.
True, disappointing, and a bad omen, but what can you do? You gotta order from da menu, cher.
