"If that means that I'm throwing him under the bus, I'm sorry."
Bullshit. You're quite happy to do it......the campaign you are running here and elsewhere is only thinly disguised (as indignation) self-promotion of yourself.
Way out of line buddy! You apparently don't know Michael very well............
You don't know me, and that's fine.
You don't know what I've done, and that's fine.
And quite frankly, considering you don't know what work I do or don't do on an ongoing basis (or here on FR for quite awhile, mind you), bite me.
If I were trying to "promote myself," there are far more lucrative vehicles that I have at my disposal.
I have an honest concern for the image presented of and by black conservatives. And when people, ON EITHER SIDE OF THE AISLE, are out of line on something like this, then I'm going to call them on it. Period.
Quite frankly, you can take your blind allegiance, fold it thrice and insert it sideways. I don't care.
