SEZ Keith B. Richburg, author of Out of America: A Black Man Confronts Africa
"I was in Africa watching the bloated bodies of black Africans cascading over a waterfall. And that's when ...I thank God my ancestor survived that voyage. Does that sound shocking ? Does it sound almost like a justification for the terrible crime of slavery ? Does it sound like this black man has forgotten his African roots ? Of course it does, all that and more. And that is precisely why I have tried to keep this emotion buried so deep for so long, and why it PAINS me so now to put these words in print, for all the world to see...."

I have serious trouble believing that Mr. Jackson gives a hoot about "the innocent Iraqi people" considering he is so willing to stab his own country in the back for his own political interests.
Eternal Shame on him.
That is one brilliant book and cannot be cited too often. The bodies were from Rwanda.
:-)
I think this article calls for one.
That is a lie...... an aplogy is not warranted, we're at war... but both have ackowledged the terrible loss of life of everyone involved any number of times...This guy is a lying a-hole.

O'Reilly, on his TV show, just singled this out as the worst article of the day.
I apologize for not invading sooner, so Saddam Hussein killed 100 000 people a year.
I apologize for not finding terrorist bombs soon enough, so that they kill civilians.
I apologize for not invading Fallujah and stopping their torture rooms soon enough..if I had, CARE's Mgt Hussein would still be alive.
I apologize for not fixing the water supply fast enough after it was bombed by terrorists.
I apologize for not fixing the electrical grid fast enough, and for sending some electricity to other cities instead of only to those backing Saddam Hussein.
I apologize for supplying text books, for rebuilding schools, and for working with local authorities, therefore making those trying to help their own people targets of the outside terrorists.
I apologize for killing terrorists (and sometimes innocent civilians) who speed and don't stop at our checkpoints. I apologize for killing children living next door to terrorist bomb making factories. I apologize for killing civilians who make bombs and shoot civilians in their spare time.
Is this good enough for you?
I should have done that with the original post.
Truth and common sense will prevail. The question we should be asking is more like - how close to the dark ages do we have to get before we put a stop to this?
That's OK. The article just makes me mad, thats all.

Derrick is certifiable.
Thats right! Just where is this guys sign?
It's not Jay, it's Derrick who is spouting the nonsense.
The STENCH from this excrement is a fragrance only a "liberal" could love.
It's not Jay, it's Derrick who is spouting the nonsense.
I'd say a state that for decades has foisted their refuse on the nation in the form of the Kennedys, Frank, Studds, Mehan, etc., etc. as well as exported their white trash north to politically ruin the only relatively well-run, independent state in the region had better look to their own problems before they whine about one result due to the ineptness of G.H.W. Bush's campaign and the appointment of local loser by a politically tone-deaf Texas politician.
But they fit in so well with the locals.
You're going to argue that NH isn't white trash central now, aren't you? LOL Don't bother, that'd be too sad.
And "whining" is funny coming from anyone in NH, the whine capitol of the east coast--"Whaaaa! Massachusetts people come up here and give us an economy so we don't ALL have to live in trailers! Whhaaaaa! It's not our fault we gave Bill Clinton a new lease on life when his campaign was dying--it was...uh...yeah, Bush, even though he had nothing to do with the Democratic primary!"
Thanks for the laugh, which is pretty much what you hicks are good for. :) Now go polish your snow mobile.
