After Bush's speech to the Urban League, Democratic presidential contender Harold Dean addressed the group and mocked the president's outreach effort.

"The president played the race card and he had the nerve to come before the National Urban League and ask for your help and your support," Dean was quoted as saying by the Washington Times.

Little do people know that the younger, stout, more left leaning liberal "Harold" Dean has placed himself in the field of democratic contenders along side his brother "Howard" for 2004 Presidental election.

Oh, yes, Bush plays the race card better than any Dem we know!! LOL!!

Should have had him arrested for extortion.

"Former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean, who was governor of a state where more than nine of every 10 residents are white, drew murmurs and scattered applause when he promised to make a case for race relations not just to the(NAACP) convention but to white people across the country. ''It takes a white leader to stand up and explain to my people about why racism is wrong,'' Dean said."

On the stump, Dean has made a point of expressing his desire to appeal to people across the political spectrum. "I want to go to the South, and I'm going to say to white guys that drive pick-up trucks with Confederate flag decals on the back of their car, 'We want your vote, too, because your kids don't have health insurance either,' " he said at the California State Democratic Convention.

With Bush's inability to "win" African-American votes in 2000 ( Al Gorleone pulled 90% of this special interest group), Bush has decided to hire himself a race pimp to purchase a bigger piece of the action in 2004.

This does not surprise me in the least. Since European American's do not block vote ( did 90% of European-Americans block vote for Bush?) Bush is going to ensure that he puts a hold on those that do.

Bush Jackson Meeting Angers GOP Blacks

It angeres this GOP white too! Bush has no business meeting with that race pimp. A total loss of stature on GW's part to stoop that low.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Meeting with Jackson just confers more legitimacy on this racial extortionist. Sad to watch Bush pander in this way.

"Other sources dispute this account and say the White House was blindsided by Cummings, who requested a private audience to talk to the president about Liberia. "Out of respect for Cummings as the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, Bush agreed to meet with him. It was someone else who suggested to Cummings that he bring Jackson," one source told Insight."

NEVER EVER TRUST A DEMONRAT!

President Bush say what to jesse?
We don't know. I like to think he told him to get outa Dodge or some such cowboy slang.

Meeting with Jackson...it boggels one's mind.

If Karl Rove doesn't stop giving Dubya these silly pills, a whole lot of folks will punt or stay home in '04.

Big time hint for GWB: Tell Rove to wake up and smell the mood of the base and get back to speaking your mind...i.e., say what you mean, mean what you say. Most important, start questioning Rove's questionable advice.

"Most important, start questioning Rove's questionable advice."

I cannot understand why George Bush doesn't realize how much his conservative base is upset by some of Mr. Rove's "advice." I know they think that we have no where else to go, but have they even considered the fact that to a great many of us "no where else to go" can also mean the voting booth in 2004.

That does it Bush can GTH!

"I want to go to the South, and I'm going to say to white guys that drive pick-up trucks with Confederate flag decals on the back of their car, 'We want your vote, too, because your kids don't have health insurance either,' "

. . .detect more than a little prejudice in 'profiling' here. Who the h-ll do they think they are talking to?

These Dems cannot help themselves as they trip over their own arrogance and ignorance.

They can never 'get it'. . .because they simply are what they speak.

Jesse Jackson mug shot

[lowbridge]

Who the hell does Jackson represent except his own deep pockets?

[Dog Gone]

Wow, a 15-minute meeting, and Jackson wasn't even alone. Some people are looking for an excuse to get their panties in a wad.

[wardaddy]

I like Niger Innis and loved when he daddy yoked Fat Al Sharpton 20 years ago on Morton Downey's "show".

[husky ed]

I wonder how much money Jesse left with?

[FITZ]

15 minutes is nothing. I wouldn't see the problem if he met with Jackson for several hours.
