Mfume on policy Iraq: "The first thing we have to do is admit that this is an illegal war. We are there for all the wrong reasons. I believe we’ve got to get out of there in a way that allows this nation to focus more of its time, resources and brave young men and women on the issue of homeland security. I don’t believe we’re making the world safer by being there. Being in Iraq has found a way to slow down our machinery in terms of real homeland security." [2]

Immigration: "I like [House Judiciary Chairman] Jim Sensenbrenner, but he’s dead wrong with the House version that says, “Let’s put up a 700-mile wall around the United States. Let’s lock up every priest and every pastor that gives food or comfort to an illegal who may be dying on the street,” because that means you’re an automatic felon. That’s draconian, and that’s why you’re having the demonstrations taking place." [5]

Mfume makes me Queasy.

[Rummyfan]

Queasy Mfume is too liberal for even the hard-line Dems in Maryland.

[sauropod]

Kweisi Mfume

Good 'ol Frizzel Grey

[Brilliant]

Now that Mfume has spoken, I expect that Dean will soon be shown the door.

[kcrackel]

Hopefully this will be a pick-up for the Republicans. I still see us adding at least one seat this year despite all the doom and gloom I hear from the MSM.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Does Mfume realizes that he's just a tool for the Dems?

They only cared about him when he was heading the NAACP. Now that he's trying to achieve real power, they don't want nothing to do with him.

Typical liberal hypocrisy/racism...

"I can say that there will be people who will feel disaffected [if I am not the nominee],"

Like his Mom and Dad, cant think on anyone else though.

[Dark Skies]

"The first thing we have to do is admit that this is an illegal war. We are there for all the wrong reasons.

Not more mfuming from Mfume! This must be series.

[hsalaw]

"I agree with both of them, maybe equally but on different things," said Mr. Mfume

He's taken speech lessons from Kerry.

Swami has a koolaid-swallowing constituency of Blacks in Baltimore and PG County, and that's it. The rest of the Dems, particularly the union guys, know he can't win and are scared to death they will lose a safe Senate seat if he is the nominee. Particularly so, because he would be running against Mike Steele, an attractive, articulate Black Republican with real ideas and strong voter appeal.

Actually, the Dems are worried about a lot more than Swami Buffune's delicate sensitivities. The candidate to which they are hitching their star, Ben Cardin, is is a real cipher. He is an old time ward heeler from Balmur who was a complete nonentity in the House. The unions pretty much own him, so they will fight hard to get him into the Senate. In a statewide race, though, he's not an easy sell.
