I question the timing. If they truly were angry at Reid they would not announce it when it would be buried by tsunami coverage.
This is intended as sarcasm... but you never know.
I'm not sure this is sarcasm, because in reality the Congressional Black Caucus has no power whatsoever in the current Washington, DC environment. Ditto for the NAACP. Regardless of the rantings of racists Jesse Jackson, John Conyers, Julian Bond, Maxine Waters, etc., American Blacks, in increasing numbers are realizing that "Being Black, Liberal and Democrat ain't cool, and it's certainly not where it's at." Hispanics and Asians is where it's at!!! American Blacks are no longer the largest minority group in the USA. Hispanics have that role, and will keep it for the foeseeable future. American Blacks have missed the train. It is pulling out of the station and they are not on it!!! That is the political reality of the world!!!
during the tsunami AND just before a holiday when everyone is away and those who are watching the news are not even paying attention.
