The quote was in the q-and-a with Graham that was posted after the article. The author didn't mention whom he was talking about. However, there are others beside Farrakhan who promote segregated education. William Raspberry, I think; not that he's not a liberal, but he's not a total nutcase.

I love John Wesley, and I like to tell my husband stories about John's mother, when he complains that we have a lot of children!

Isn't that an oxymoron??? ;^)

Hehe, me too. Susanna certainly endured a lot--nineteen children. Gah...I'm not sure I want one, let alone nineteen.

No, just a historic anachronism. ;->

I don't know. I don't think they have a law school, but maybe she was an undergraduate there :-). We call it "The University From Outer Space."

NOT, before I offend someone, that there aren't some fine people getting a good education there in a variety of subjects. A member of my Catholic parish teaches Bible at ORU!

I don't know where or if Anita was educated however she was on the nipple of the taxpayers of Oklahoma as an "endowed" law professor at the University of Oklahoma for far too long.
Incidentally, I refer to OU as "Berkley on the South Canadian" due to the prevalent liberal bias on campus.
I think "endowed" means she didn't actually do any work but got paid as if she did. Eventually, some university donors apparently got fed up with their state employee spending all her time on TV and put out the word she had to go-she went.

I listen to his radio show during my ride home in the evening. He is entertaining. lol

here's his stuff from today

FROM BET: Lott briefly stunned his interviewer by announcing his support for affirmative action.


"I'm for that," the Mississippi Republican told Black Entertainment Television newsman Ed Gordon.


"Across the board?" Gordon asked, incredulous.


"Absolutely," Lott replied.


FROM MICHAEL GRAHAM: If Trent Lott supports affirmative action, then Yassir Arafat is a Zionist.


TRENT LOTT CREATES A PRO-LIFE DILEMMA: I'm pro-life, therefore I oppose euthanasia. But as a Republican, I've never seen a stronger candidate for a mercy killing than Trent Lott on BET last night. Oh my God, it was a painful, cringe-inspiring disaster. I fantasized that Bill Bennett would suddenly appear, kick in the studio door, drag Lott into the lobby and beat him into a coma with a copy of "The Death of Outrage."

Rather than forcing "Yankees" into the south, it would be better to just expell the south and California from the union. Then the spread of redneckism would stop. Make the southerners present a passport when they come north.

To cite the late, great Lewis Grizzard: "I never saw anybody from the South retire so they could move to New Jersey".

We in the South tried to leave voluntarily once, and y'all got pissed.
Mexico can have California back; they've almost got it anyway.

He was the drive-time radio personality here for several years. Nice person...


Sometimes. I always felt that he was a "Rush" wannabe. He has been on Mahers show, Politically Incorrect several times. Actually shut Ed Asner up one night, but good!

You should read this one... This guy is funny!!!

A great book. Funny enough to help keep the fear under control. In a generation this country will be far more segregated than the Old South ever was. I also decided to invest in voice recognition research, because in another generation no young people will be able to read or write.

. Make the southerners present a passport when they come north.

I sell books on Ebay and you find lots of things tucked into books. I recently found 2 passports for yankees coming to the south. It is an envelope with a lot of cute instructions written on it and a few 'confederate bills' tucked inside - just in case.

We in the South tried to leave voluntarily once, and y'all got 'ticked' (sorry about the editing_.

That is so true.

Mexico can have California back; they've almost got it anyway.

They just about have Texas also.
