are Walter Williams, Ph.D, Thomas Sowell, Ph. D, Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas, National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of State Colin Powell, or sydicated columnist Larry Elder speaking at this year's shin-dig?
 
I don't know if I should make something of this, but last night, I was taking a walk and I saw Jessie Jackson and Julian Bond quietly lowering the weighted body of Jesse Lee Peterson into the Schukyll river.

What will you do on election day? Eagles success and Kerry, or "Hail to the Redskins" and Bush? You decide!
 

In order not to put an extra dollar that will end up in some 527 organization, I pledge not to buy one Eagles ticket from that effete, possible homosexual (you've seen "Christina" Lurrie, right?), left cause supporting, hypocritical socialist, Jeffrey T. Lurrie.

 

All my football sheckles will be going to the much wiser investment… Temple Football.

Take a drive around Temple University if you want to see pure wall-to-wall squaler. Worse than any city in Mexico that I've seen (so far).

I can look out my office window and see the third world conditions five blocks north. I honestly can say that I felt safer driving lost in Detroit at night a few months ago, than I do in certain sections of Cincinnati in the daylight.

Cincinnati is the new Hellmouth.

Even if he were dead (and thank God he's not), the Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson would still be more intelligent than Jackson and Bond combined!

You want squalor? Ride a train from anywhere on the Northeast trains lines to DC. You will ride through parts of Baltimore that look like a neutron bomb hit there.

What a loathsome city.


Hey, it's a very beautiful city. It's the Democratic politics that make it appear ugly.

The "back yards" of Baltimore row houses along the Amtrak mainline compare unfavorably with anything I've ever seen in the third world.

Once a low life thug, always a low life thug.

You can dress him up, shave his face, elect him to the office as Mayor, but he is still a thug.

Apparently to Street, anyone with a black face is either a "brother" or a "sister," and entitled to a share of the booty.

Except of course for the ones he so pleasantly refers to as the "ventriloquist's dummies". In other words, Colin Powell, Condoleeza Rice, etc. etc.

Us white folk would never say or do anything like this. How ungrateful they are.

The so-called "Uncle Toms." Ironically, however, anyone who has ever read "Uncle Tom's Cabin" will know that this label is not really a stigma. Uncle Tom was anything but an "Uncle Tom."

Flagrant, virulent racists, spewing hate.

Those of us who live here know where the city of evil really lies.

I commented that "Street has been so busy stealing from the city coffers that he didn't have time to interfere with the real-estate developers."

Every cloud has a silver lining.

We had one of those in San Frangayo too. Willie Brown, he wasn't distracted, you simply could build anything if you sent enough money his way. The Rats love to be RICH Rats. Are your developers "expensing" Street?

It doesn't appear to be the case. Well, some are. The ones who built the substandard HUD units in North Philadelphia kicked back to Street did. But most of the housing is being done by small to medium developers who are doing things within code, by the books, in a market driven manner.
