I am a 53-year-old white Christian male. I have voted since the first election I was old enough.

Over the years, I have voted for Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Reform Party candidates and independents. I have voted for men, women, white candidates, and black candidates. None of the above has made a difference in my vote

Good morning to you WKB!

Do you think the CL will publish your little slice of truth or has its editorial page has become so politically correct that it can't handle the truth?

Got this late but wanted to say 'Good for you!' I would have added that the looney-toon speech she made on election night only confirmed my vote!!! Have a great day...

"espy?"...

He was my congressman and was the greater lesser of two evils. I have no regrets. Would vote for him again if he ran against Bennie Thompson.
Would vote for Hitler if he ran against Bennie Boy

Getting published in the C/L surely puts you right up there in the adorable category with Haley. Now that you're published in the C/L no less, I'm wondering how I should address you, will "Sir" suffice?

Seriously, your letter is magnificent. I am so proud of you. You've done us all proud. Congratulations. Well done.

"What I want Mrs. Blackmon to know and possibly understand is that it was not the "pigmentation of her skin" but the "poison in her speech" that was the reason she didn't get my vote."

Congratulations! What a wonderful letter! You made your point very well. I'm so proud of you!

"Ole MIss in 8 over times"

Oh, c'mon! Please, don't do that to me!
