OK, except for the "rich cronies" part at the end of the excerpt.

The NAACP would be irrelevant if the GOP supported more African-Americans for public office.

I for one will thank him for the article. It took guts to praise Dubba.

Basically, the president said, "Hey, they don't like me. I don't like them. Why should I kiss up to an organization that opposes my party and my politics?" First Cheney telling that donkey senator to go eff himself, and now this.
Let's play hardball!

"I'm no fan of George Bush. Lying about the war and allowing rich cronies to profit from its aftermath is reason enough to boot him back to private life. But I applaud Bush's decision not to play nice with established black leaders. He will gain or lose votes based on his efforts to attract black voters. That is more than I can say for Democrats." Mr. Brown needs to prove the charge that W. lied. Methinks he is just regurgitating leftist agitprop and he has not shown me that he is off the liberal plantation yet.

Sensing relationship trouble, Democratic presidential challenger John Kerry jumped at the opportunity to woo conventioneers. With Sister Sledge's song "We Are Family" as a convenient backdrop....
Using one of the worst songs from one of the worst eras in American music...quite expectable from Jean Francoise. I just hope he uses it as his campaign theme. >:o

To: sauropod
My thoughts exactly! The author does make some good points, though, even though he's swallowing the Koolaid.

"The NAACP would be irrelevant if the GOP supported more African-Americans for public office."
And just who are the A-A's that the GOP is supposed to support? Charles Rangel? I agree that Bush should support Herman Cain but he has to support Republicans that can win. He needs them in congress and the senate. Don't put the onus on the GOP. Put it where it belongs.
I played golf with a man yesterday who took a part time job at the course teaching young A-A's how to play in exchange for free greens fees. He was told by the black head pro that the kids would be deathly afraid of him at first because they all think that white people want to enslave them. Well guess what? They WERE afraid of him. Someone is putting that crap in their minds and it isn't the GOP. There is poison out there and the NAACP is passing it out.

fine. if the black community embraces hate and fear of whites then so be it. just cuz they want to spread poison doesnt make me responsible to provide the antidote.

He doesn't sound far from the plantation when he whines that the government needs to take care of "black needs". It seems to me that this guy hasn't figured out yet that if you need a helping hand, long at the end of your arm.
I am also guessing that all the blacks that the GOP has put in high office doesn't mean much to him.

The Mfume Jackson team will have to come to the realization that dialog can go both ways, provided there still are courageous people that do react, regardless of retaliatory hyena cries of racism.

Lying about the war"Relying on faulty intelligence" does not equal "lying about the war."
If you don't like the man, that's your business. But don't trump up some full-of-used-food excuse like "lying about the war."
You said Bush was being refreshingly honest and up front. Why don't you do the same?

I'm no fan of George Bush.I think Mr. Brown felt he had to put that paragraph in, lest he lose his "Soul Patrol" Secret Decoder Ring, and they change the secret handshake without telling him.
