A guest on John Bachelor's radio program last night pointed out the strange silence coming from the Senate on redistricting. Redistricting creates political boundaries that follow racial lines. None of the Senate -- conservative, liberal, or Rino cared to talk about it. Who wants to take away the boundaries? The Congressional Black Caucus will lose their voter base. The whites will lose a powerful incentive to keep blacks within political ghettos.

When I attended Boston's city wide schools in the 1960's, blacks could attend if they passed the exams. Some did, albeit not in as great as proportion to their population, 12 percent. Now they are the largest single ethnic group in Boston, 40 to 45 percent, and the schools are about 90 percent black.

Racial segregation is alive and well. My liberal neighbors live in the white neighborhoods. who are they kidding?

Having lived and worked in the Northeast for nearly 20 yearsas a transplanted midwesterner - I can assure this family there is nothing racial about their treatment. NO New Englander is EVERY 'warm and friendly' to anyone except someone with a clearly European accent. mASSholes fawn over Europeans, especially the Euro-trash that frequents Newbury street and its environs.

Redistricting allows for Republican majorities.
