Pickering, whose appointment is strongly opposed by civil rights activists.

Just so these so-called civil rights activists know...Pickering once testified AGAINST THE KKK at great peril to himself,and his family. They endured death threats & the like.SO, now EXPLAIN to me how he can be racist??? Because YOU want him to be. Because it's the EASIEST way to cry foul?

Why not let our elected officals DO THEIR JOBS?

The Dem party is nothing but a high-output lie factory. And right now they are experiencing high inventories of the politics of personal destruction. Problem is, I'm not sure they are even able to sell this tripe even at deeply discounted prices. They can take their sale and shove it....

I want to see Klansman Byrd filibuster for 24 hours against Pickering. Hypocrisy might be the mother's milk of the Democratic party, but this would be too much even for them.

I'd love to know which 'civil rights activists' are strongly opposing Pickering's nomination. As I recall, Pickering has strong support from blacks in Missippi, and they would know him better than anyone.
