Great commentary.

It'd be interesting to trace Davis' genealogy to see if it has any roots with Southern slaveowners.

I'd recommend doing the same with Bill Clinton, but we're still trying to sort out exactly who his father was.

Davis's demagogery is just one more indication of the desperate straits of the democrat party. To have any chance of winning national and most state elections, they have to get 90% plus of the black vote, and they need a high turnout. So you get the reparations clap trap, church burnings that never happened, etc.: deliberate inflaming of racial paranoia. With Davis on the ropes, you'll see a lot of this, plus intensive distilled hate focused on his opponent with any kind of personal smear that can be found. Where I used to regard democrats as mostly decent people, just a little uninformed or misguided, after the Clinton years I think of them as stupid and indifferent to corruption.

I'm ok with reparations so long as we deduct the costs which include slave room and board, cost of transportation , cost of war, welfare benefits to date and applicable taxes.

If corporations or associations carry inherited guilt, wouldn’t it be fair also to call the governor’s own political party to account, and demand a payout from campaign warchests? The Democrat Party of the 1840s, 1850s, and 1860s was a bulwark of the slavery cause. Its leaders included Mississippi Sen. (and later Confederate president) Jefferson Davis; Chief Justice Roger Taney, whose Dred Scott decision forced slavery into federal territories; and Stephen Douglas, who ran for president against Lincoln on a platform endorsing the Dred Scott ruling.

Okay I'm in on that one..... Oh boy, Im gonna get BILLIONS!

taxaholic bump - also does anyone know if Gov. Davis has released his mental medical health records? I no longer wonder if he is deranged or that he has "lost it" it appears to be evident. I think the question for the Big Lie Industry would be: Did Governor Davis suffer his mental breakdown BEFORE he took office or was his collapse due to the pressures of 911 readiness and the energy crisis? Also when did the California legislature first learn of Governor Davis' breakdown? And what is the procedure for removing an impaired Governor? Thank you I'll take your response off the air...

I still can't believe that these wimp insurance companies actually wasted the time to do research on the antebellum doings of their predecessor companies. Someone should have had the b*lls to look into the camera and tell Davis to go take a flying leap off the Golden Gate. And, if there was any more static after that, all insurance companies in CA should have threatened to immediately stop writing any kind of insurance in the state for however long it took to make this asinine issue go away. Think of it, without insurance, no one buys residential or commercial property, no one gets a driver's license, to name two. Then, the companies' slick marketing types should have gotten all over the media, wherever they could, and made sure the public knew just who was responsible for all the inconvenience.

This is just another shakedown. Mark my words, if this issue sprouts feet, the various state AGs, as well as the Feds, will find a way to get their cut. First it was tobacco extortion, now it's about to be fast food (obesity), so then why not reparations. Just another legal racket, courtesy of the slimeball activists and their sleazy politician friends.

Expect PETA to sue insurance companies that insure livestock.

Hee hee:"Is there a slickster in your family tree who sold wagons with faulty wheels or horses with wobbly legs? Conceivably you might be sued by descendants of someone he hoodwinked."

Start with Jessie Jackson, see who his ancestors were or John Conyers, who does he claim was a slave? Maxine Waters should provide her family tree, heaven only knows who could sue her for past crimes committed by her ancestors.

Gray Davis has to be really stupid to give credence to any of this and any judge who allows this in his/her court should be disbarred and thrown off the bench! Better yet, start with the Africans who SOLD Africans into slavery in the first place, get them to pay Jessie some money. It would seem Black Americans are still being used and abused by their own race!
