As Mary Berry gracefully steps down from her position on the US Civil Rights Commission, we bid adieu to another enlightened, tolerant liberal voice which dared to cry out in the wilderness. You will be missed Mary...and possibly indicted depending on the outcome of the USCRC audit...

When a rainbow of KPFA staff and supporters protested the moves, as well as Berry's racial rationale, months of chaos ensued. Berry and Executive Director Lynn Chadwick fired the station manager, censored its public affairs programmers to keep them from talking about the controversy, had a broadcaster arrested -- while he was on the air -- for defying the ban, shut down the station and locked KPFA staffers out, had peaceful demonstrators arrested, and paid anti-union lawyers, armed security guards and a tony public relations firm over a half-million dollars to prevail.
Ahhhh... Mary "Jackboot" Berry
But the radio network that survived McCarthyism, and more recently attempts by Sen. Jesse Helms, R-N.C., to cut its public funding...
How would these lefty flucks feel about their taxes going to support Rush Limbaugh?

Oh please, oh, please! If only she could be dragged up and indicted for all of the money she stole.

The established and growing perception libs have of themselves as more intelligent,enlightened,sophisticated etc.first extends in general to all conservatives but when needed will be applied to each other.
That is the reason so many libs are really nasty,unpleasant people.Just watch the so-called pundits on TV and just by the impression they give,how many would you want to associate with,political differences notwithstanding.

>>>...even African-Americans with civil rights records equal to or more impressive than her own.<<<<

What impressive record does Mary Frances have? I must have missed it. She is a bigot , plain and simple.

I had a boil on my butt once I remember it , it was painful, but I sure diidnt miss it when it was gone.

She made a laughing stock of a comission that served no purpose. She is gone we should save a few bucks and get rid of the commission ,she made it useless .
