Aaron McGruder, whose cartoon comic strip "The Boondocks" appears in the Inquirer and is known for its attacks on Republicans, went on a syndicated television show recently and denounced National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice as a killer on "America's Black Forum."
"I don't like Condoleezza Rice because she's a murderer," McGruder said, adding, "We can discuss this illegal Iraq war, the slaughtering of innocent people, and because she's one of the big hawks in this administration, I do not even see why this is a point of contention."
***
McGruder did not mention Democratic presidential candidate Al Sharpton.

Hey Aaron. Do you know that there is no cash prize for being the idiot of the day?

How can you support Sharpton, when we have Carol Moseley Braun in the race? You DO realize that with Mzzzzz. Braun you get to check off two boxes on your PC scorecard.
And now for the latest news.
CAROL MOSELEY BRAUN ADDS NEW MEMBERS, NEW ENERGY TO CAMPAIGN TEAM
Boston, MA - Presidential candidate Carol Moseley Braun announced today that preeminent women's rights leader Patricia Ireland has been appointed as campaign manager.
" Patricia Ireland and her team bring new energy and excitement to the campaign. With more than 20 years' experience in national politics, Patricia Ireland also expands our outreach to activists and organizers, supporters and contributors, all across the country," said Carol Moseley Braun.

McGruder is a racest. He hates whites and I don't care how he hides it.

Well, the good news is that Aaron McGruder is making a decent living off this trash. While it may be too late for Aaron to change his own attitude, the odds are good that if he has children, they'll grow up with a better education, and come to reject their father's bigotry and prejudices. OTOH, his kids could turn out like the Kennedys. :-)

Gee, I'll definitely rethink my position. The thing is, I believe there are some libs who might actually waste a vote on Sharpton, while no one at all will ever vote for Mzzz Carol.

Superfluous tabloid fodder of little consequence?
Nah. I doubt that McGruder's spawn will generate that much interest unless they earn it by their own achievements. Cartoonist's kids might as well be orphans. The cartoon characters always get more attention. The Kennedys had no artistic abilities, that's why their offspring became the cartoon characters.

Superfluous tabloid fodder of little consequence? That is, I think, the absolute most brillant description of the Kennedys I've seen.

Keep on raising the point Kent. It has to be told over and over again.
And remember that just a few years ago you couldn't even raise the point without being ridiculed. We are winning one inch at a time.

Superfluous tabloid fodder of little consequence? Unfortunately, the voters of Massachusetts keep sending that over-sexed drunk back to Congress to screw the rest of the nation. I can't complain too much week keep sending Specter back, Vote Toomey.

I saved this yesterday because I think it is a good idea!
There is a thread up now which I am sure you have
Seen The Hall of Fame one.
We should have a best of thread for each year. Good idea, but no I won't post it either, but someone might want to.
:<)
Some old threads are neat too like the Ultimate Vanity
